Random Thoughts *16

if only..
there is a medicine called happy pill so i won't be so grumpy everyday.
if only..
life is simple so i won't feel so lost at times.
if only..
i can do the things i like instead of suffering every single day.
if only..
if only..

*i suppose my teeth and gums will take donkey years to recover if i continue to work in this crazy place.

*kor especially called me from sydney forcing me to go visit those TCM one of these days. must be the reason mummy is niam-ing to him that i feel so weak everyday. 1 day can diarrhoea so many times.another day headache.can i die sooner please?

*my tears are never ending i guess.

*"lending a helping hand". who is going to help me then?
life is so helpless at time.
i am lost.

Taipei Day 1

Our Taiwan trip is filled with full of mishaps for the first few days. we encountered turbulence in the midst of our jetstar flight. smart us never put on seat belt in time so we can see everyone flying up from their seats. ZHEN DE! terrible.
we arrived safely in tao yuan airport. so hungry!
so we decided to grab a bite b4 going to Rainbow.
who knows.i lost my hp again! not sure whether it dropped out from my pocket in the cab or the coach bus. nevertheless, a kind cabbie returned my hp to me in the middle of the night around 1 plus am. he went to Rainbow hotel personally. so touched!
the famous guang dong porridge in Shilin night market. soooo yummy! (p.s: i went to Shilin 3 times and ate porridge at the same stall 3 times. super tasty can.)
lots and lots of bubble tea.
I never get to eat hao da da chicken cutlet. :(
the traditional ear candling.scary ye.

Hualien's night.
The night when i struggled to walk against the strong wind to help the poor sick meryl buy medicine etc. cabbie said that typhoon has yet to arrive but it is just nearby so we can feel the impact.
The cutie bus stop

刘阿姨 got a dog named Neu neu..it is the first dog i've fallen in love with! I HUG NEU NEU!

i miss hualien so much!
i am afraid of neu neu initially but its action melts my heart.
i swear i wun like other dogs apart from him.HAHA.or rather i am still scared of dogs except neu neu.

孔明灯 next.hehee..
we are suppose to write all our wishes on this thingy and light it up..so it will reach the sky and our wishes will come true!

ok.after fireworks, kong ming deng, it is art and craft time..we wanted to draw something on the stone.
my ugly stone.hai.the blackie is unintentional.
so tired.we slept around 3 plus again.
a postcard to send back home..so interesting! and it reached home earlier than me!
the view taken from the balcony. hai.didn't got the time to go to the seaside behind the stone house.this explains the reason i must go there again. heard from the rest that the sun rise is very very pretty. (but must wake up around 4plus am?)
about to leave the stonehouse soon.
刘阿姨 will collect the stones from the seaside so everyone can draw on it to keep it as a souvenir.
breakfast prepared by them..so yummy.
wanted to play around with the clogs but it's wet so got to give it a miss. Usually group of 3 will walk together and take photos with it. so fun uh..i must go back again!
we nearly missed our train back to tai pei. -_-.running with big bulky bag.

finally.we can catch some sleep..
mochi for lunch! mochis brought from hualien.! rather nice but i wun choose to eat it again after the forced to finish it b4 12noon experience(it is fresh made so must finish within 1 day time). 3 person eating 12 mochis. *puke*
(heng i got advantage cos i am bo gay.so i can be excused.HAHA.lesser mochi.)
sweet potato from hualien too.our budget lunch.
尽心。尽情。尽乐。a guest from the stone house drew for 刘阿姨 and she in turn gave it to us.=D
this meryl is forcing us to take photos with the stone she draw. cos she think it is the nicest among all. (but it is the truth la.)
our 3rd night in Royal Castle (also situated in Xi Men Ding but a distant away from mrt station) no choice. the smart Rainbow hotel told us no room available on our 3rd night when we have called them to book in advance already.-_-''. make us pack and unpack our bag the first few nights.
this is the after effect of shopping in Wu Fen Pu. can you imagine some dresses, tops and bottoms are at NT100 (around S$4.20).HAHA. please bear in mind to go taiwan for shopping in Sept. cos they are clearing their summer clothes. HOORAY FOR US!
Dinner at Tamago-蛋蛋屋.
i am missing their corn soup. so fragrance and tasty. super suitable to drink in such cold weather!
nelle is "tsk-ing"at me all the way. reason being is i retake her photo for more than 3 times. either her head is blocking the signboard or someone is behind her.
Xi Men Ding night's time
Partyworld! so christmassy. but didn't got a chance to go sing.cos the prices are rather similiar to SG.
Stay tune for the photos in Miniature museum, 小人国 and Taiwan 故事馆.!
