#1 Hello!

Hello,welcome to Alice's Blog. I’m the freshman who currently studying at Public Finance and Tax Administration. I graduated from Hukou high school which in Hsinchu. And my birthday is on December, 23rd. In my free time, I like to listen to the music especially k-pop and j-pop. So I attend the club which names Tsaiyin Guitar. I practice drumming in the club. It’s pretty cool and releasing stresses. If you interested in it, you have to try it once. Sometimes I also go to the movie theater to see new movies that let me temporarily forget the pressure in real life. So happy that you come to see my blog. If you have the same hobby or anything that you want to say, you can leave a message. Maybe we can be good friends ! 🙌 This is me, haha!
