Its time to blog i guess.. its like super busy..

had a chance to go relief teaching today.. but decided to just skip it.. too tired to control the kids.. just want to rest at home and pack my things.. yes!!! need to pack the house.. have like notes and clothes lying everywhere.. the luggage from taiwan is still THERE. lying on the floor..pa and mi has been nagging.. so i decided to PACK TODAY!! lots to do today.. and i promise to get it done..

pack my room, my cupboard, my studyroom, my living room, blog, call sponsors, go out with kon celia chet. and i guess my one day is gone...decided to do some updates on taiwan.. cause i have been super lazy to blog.. It would be quite boring for the posts I am going to post cause is my entire life in taiwan for 9 days.haha

1st DAY

The plane was delayed. .like wat the.. but its budget air lar. so no choice. but also delayed very long loh. almost close to an hour while I am stuck in the plane wondering when the plane would take off.. We reach the airport late and was OMG.. cause almost all the bus from airport is the last bus. It was kind of scary cause all the bus companies will try to snatch each other's business and ask like where u going and stuff..

airport and up in the air

I tugged my 15kg luggage.. my fault for bringing such a heavy luggage.. like we took the bus and mrt then was omg. cause have to pull here carry up the stairs.. I carried my luggage like up and down flights of stairs when a women told us that beside us was the lift. okie. felt so stupid.

Everyone was like staring at us and the mrt was quiet. like u cant really tok loh. haha. reminds me of library.

Dun care we tourist lar.. jus take pic in the mrt. haha

We finally reached our hotel.. we wanted to go to the ma tong dian, where everything is like in toilet bowl kind of bowl.. but we couldnt find it and was quite late.. the last order was over.. we decided just go ximending walk walk and eat loh..

the mee sua in ximending is omg loh. the chilli. haha. is SUPER GOOD. I didnt know how spicy it was and put like 4 smaller than tea spoon portion and it was super spicy loh. haha..

donno why my face is shock when eat the mee sua

I hate eating fried food.. but this fried chicken is nice nice =)

enjoying the fried chicken

We pooled in money too.. cause a lot of food was shared.. all 9 days was lived on mineral water cause we didnt boil any water.. no one dares to drink the water in the hotel.. first day ended in hotel around 11.30pm cause all the shops are closed except 7-11

2nd DAY

woke up early in the morning.. went to JSP for breakfast.. had egg floss crepe.. but think singapore shilin is sill he nicest. Took a bus to yang ming shan..

This sign was taken in the public bus on the way to Yangmingshan..

The trip was super long.. and some ah ma talked to us.. but is like they asked us whether we can speak chinese and is like when we say like yar. and talk to them in chinese.. they were like "你们的国语说的很好".. er.. we Chinese? The trip up was horrible.. had to take bus 260 up to yangmingshan and than change another bus 180. As there was a lot of old people.. we all gave our seats up and just stnd all the way.. the bus 280 was also super small.. those 20 seater.. and haha.. baoxian kept hitting her head..

Saw this bus with this advertisment.. haha. omg. so i chiong to go take pic with the bus while waiting for bus 108 up yangmingshan

Loves my friend camera.. could take such picture.. like can see the clouds so clearly.. my camera will go total white.. but it cost around $500? no $$

Yang ming shan was too big to cover all so we just stop at the last stop.. the weather was super good super windy.. almost can blow me off if not the few kg I gained bec of my exam stress.. lol.. Never regret going there although my leg a bit tired from standing like 1 hr on a bumpy bus and walking up the hill.. wanted to see the sulphur thingy but didnt go.. no time already.. the public wen quan also closed le..

Really nice scenary

went to dan shui after that.. kind of regretted it cause not really very nice leh.. jia yun bought the "tie dan" (metal egg) haha. actually i dun knoe what is that.. just some egg with the covering like ba kua like that.. we ate 臭豆腐 and 猪血糕 and many more.. the smelly beancurd was OMG.. its super smelly. and sorry.. I can smell urea smell in it.. the "zhu xue gao" was even more horrible.. its like a black cake kind of thing.. salty smelly.. yucks yucks yucks.. wonder why it is like one of the " must eat" in taiwan.. took some photos at dan shui river there..

Went mirama for the ferris wheel.. hee hee.. it was the huan huan ai.. where mike he and yang chen ling sat on.haha.. The scenary was okie onli lar.. can see taipei 101 but we had fun like taking pictures in the ferris wheel till the minute we came down.

went shilin market cause its famous.. but bleh.. the market which I hate most.. its gross.. the food super oily.. is not I health conscious or wat.. but its super oily.. all the food there is like FRIED, super oily... cause me not to shit for days.. the Oh lua, my friend say its the nicest she ate.. but for me.. YUCKS.. I just felt I drank a bottle of wine.. The frog eggs.. er.. nice.. but very sweet... I saw a lot of army guys and Singaporean there.. some quite not bad looking haha.. it feels really great to see ppl of ur country there. =)

The queue for this fried chicken is super long long lar.. it was like said to be nice.. but i think singapore shilin the XXL chicken even nicer loh..

This is like u choose the stick u want then they will help u barbecue.. another yucky food.. ultra oily..

ULTRA ULTRA tired.. legs sore.. its like we walked for donno how long already since morning 8am.. stomach bloated from all the food.. went back after some shopping at shiling. cannot tahan already.. everyone is super tired.. took an mrt back to ximending.. reach hotel around 11.3opm.. serene want to massage leg but in the end didnt. haha. just go back hotel bao leg loh.. =)
