Woot, finished watching My Lucky Star (放羊的星星). Another love story stored in my mind... All this 偶像剧 keep making me feel so emo. Furthermore I realized that one of their filming scene is where I visited few days ago when I was still in Taiwan... Haiz, really dun feel like coming back to Singapore leh. It's like when I step out of my house I feel so 陌生. My mum told me "人回来了，魂还在那里。" -.- dunno how to deal with this now. Anyway, gotta thx Cora for recommending me the show mentioned above... really nice =D

Day 5: 25 Nov 07 Sunday.
we went to the 忠烈词 in the morning becoz it was bad weather ytd so we had to go on this day. the soldiers was marching in a very neat manner. i overheard mr ng saying something about so sway to get this kind of job XD.
九份 was a really nice place to shop for souvenirs. And I had my dream came true. both in one day! we took the public bus (yay!) to 九份 becoz it is too small for all tour buses to be there. 野柳 was cooling and breezy. had many nice scenery photos taken there. picked some sea shells too! the next stop was 渔人码头 where meteor garden had its filming there. it was really beautiful at dusk though its really cold. I was in luck yesterday. for every try of the grabbing plush machine, I manage to get the plush. but yuzhen was complaining about how she cldnt get it so I kinda stopped. and i realise that durian in taiwan is vry exp when we were at 淡水老街. the guys bought firecrackers and burn them all that night... it was really beautiful but kinda scary though XD.
My second wish came true at night when we took the MRT (yay!) to shilin night market. These made me realise that its actually not a bad idea for me to live there for some time, like a month or so. i tried spending all my money since its the last night there but cldnt -.-. so on our way back to the hotel, I spent about NT500 in 7-11 XD the guy was like having trouble squishing all my stuff into one pathetically small plastic bag lah. last night in taiwan... yuzhen and i manage to change our room and we got a suite kinda room. there were 2 TVs, 2 phones, a living room and a linkway. that was the best day =D

Day 4: 24 Nov 07 Saturday.
We were treated like real tourist that day. went to the taipei discovery center where there are chops which you can use for memory purpose. I think singapore should have it too. when we were at the 中正纪念堂, there was a mini 台风 which i tink is quite fun actually =X. I spent the most of my money at the bookshop. Bought an english book, japan literature (translated to chinese) and a book for learning japanese. Taipei 101 shopping center, to me, is a wasted effort. I did buy something there and manage to get myself wet at the fountain but the things inside are like branded stuff lah -.-. (im tinking of mont blanc again T.T) In the national palace museum, I wentta collect my chops again XD didnt get all of them but the biggest and most important chop is in my booklet now =P Mei Li Hua shopping center was kinda boring too coz of the exp stuff. but I actually manage to get a free kenzo perfume. there was this guy giving out flyers to random people so I was kinda lucky. Yuzhen saw and and went to ask for it too. so we both had our perfume and thats all from there. we had our free time again at night. took a taxi to where shops concentrate in xi men ting and I asked whether we can go to the 圈圈的地方 and the taxi driver said its called 车站 not what 圈圈的地方 XD. the moment we reach there, i saw the red building... the one where they film 樱野３加１and kept taking shots XD we bought our hats there and yuzhen got her belt too. you dunno how happy i was to stay in xi men ting =P

Day 3: 23 Nov 07 Friday.
Late. Yes, Yuzhen and I woke up late. Everyone had to wait for us. But we were just the starters, coz for the next few days, many start to oversleep. Visited another school that day, Fwu Shan Junior High. They didn't go for the exaggerating actions but are still very warm towards us. Wendy, our new fren in that school, had to bring three of us along (yuzhen guanrong and me). The meal's kinda nice but the soup tastes like dumpling -.-. the desert was 爱玉, which was super delicious! even better than the one I had the other day. After that, we departed for Taipei. Since it was early, we had the chance to go shilin night market before the scheduled date. I bought a bag there to make it my hand carrier. Its as though I knew that the luggage will not be enuff for me XD. The chicken chop at the 美食广场 is like WOW. I didn't find the very famous one with long queue so I saw this one with cheese and ham inside and I didn't regret at all =D the cheese FLOWS into your mouth and its suuupppperrrrr yummy! during the free time at night, we walked around the area and manage to get ourself to the area where cinemas concentrate. there are shops too and we had a vry nice drink there. I actually manage to bring ourselves there and back safely, woo. Its all eating and stuff that day =D

Day 2: 22 Nov 07 Thursday.
We had our breakfast at the hotel restaurant and set off for Yang Ming Junior High School. The moment our bus reach the carpark of the school, our only reaction is "WOW". There is this screen hanging at the top of the foyer which wrote something just to welcome us. Then after, we were ushered to the performing place (whatever they call it) to watch performance from their various arts and performing group. Their choir is like so much better than ours lah -.-. their meeting room was all prepared for us. We just had to find our name on the table and sit down. We were treated like real VIPs and its like so touching to see all the banners and posters around the school which are made just to welcome us! Their Home Econs room is like the kitchens of restaurants, everything is so metal-lish. Bento was our lunch and we even had milk tea! After which, we went to some temple and pavilions. At night, we drop by the 六合 night market where there are tons of delicious taiwan delicacies to try. I bought 爱玉冰 and was really satisfied with the taste.. Yummm.. 爱河 was the last destination for the day. It was a pity my camera can't capture night scenes. the river was really beautiful!

TaDaiMa!
Just came back yesterday evening. If you wanna ask me how was the trip, I would say "How I wish I am still there." Does that answer?
There are lots of things I wanna say about the trip, lets separate them day by day.
Day 1: 21 Nov 07 Wed
When we arrived at the Kaoshiong Airport, we were brought to a restaurant to have our lunch first. Honestly, the food weren't that nice but I am still fine with it lah. We were then brought to a shopping center with a Sanrio Characters themed ferris wheel. It was GREAT to be at the top. The cabin is air-coned and has music playing! I didn't really buy anything at the shopping mall as the things are kinda exp there compared to those in China. I mean, I can get the things in Singapore mah, so why bother buy it in Taiwan. After which, when our lunch was still half digested, we were brought back to the same restaurant again to have our dinner. We were suppose to go back to the hotel to have our sleep after that but it was still early, so the tour guide suggested that the bus drop us at some night market near our hotel to have our free time. We were suppose to go in groups of four so Mr Yong had to join us for the shopping. I didn't really buy much there cause "Taipei has much more to buy!" kept ringing in my mind. We went to MacDonalds (I just realise I can't spell it =X) where there are two basketball machines. HongQuan wanted to play so he went first. Then after that we realise it is totally free so I went to play too. It was awesome! I had the highest score too! But still can't beat the highest score on the machine T.T We headed back after that and have our rest.
(Pictures Will be available when I get them all uploaded, for now, you can view some of them at my image host site)

I know some of you may think that this is kinda crazy but I'm thinking of growing taller now. Not just "now", I have been thinking about it for the past few weeks already. Maybe to all my friends and relative, I am considered the tall and gigantic person and have been wondering why do I have the obsession towards high heels. Honestly, I am not very tall what. Look at all the Hong Kong, China and Taiwan actresses. Anyone of them you like can overshadow me easily -.-
I am serious, I wanna be taller.
I am serious, I wanna be taller.
