What activities do teens in Taiwan like?
Tina: It’s pretty much like here, but we don’t have hockey, we don’t have football. Football is kind of like the sport in America; I’ve never seen football before. I’ve seen it on TV, but we don’t have the game in Taiwan. We don’t have football fields, and when I first came here, I was like “I don’t know what those big guys are doing. They just hit each other and then take the ball.” Because we don’t have ice, so we don’t have hockey. Sports, besides those two, are very similar. In our free time, most teenagers go to movies, KTV or MTV. KTV is a little room and you go with about five people, and there is a huge screen, and a book where you can order the songs, and you have microphones so you can sing. It’s kind of like karaoke. MTV is not like the (cable TV channel), it’s …. a little room and a huge screen. You can choose a videotape or (recent American) movie. You can choose Titanic now I think. There’s a lot of movies you can choose….but that’s usually just for couples you know,
