Taiwan

Finally back in s'pore!!!

It's great to b back at home after being away in taiwan for 2 wks.Tis is e longest period of time i've been away frm hm.As much as i missed hm alot,i wish i got more time 2 tour taipei more,which is somethin i'll say later.

Before i left s'pore,a lot of ppl told me tat it's quite cold at tis time of e yr.But during e next few days,it's almost jus as hot as in s'pore.Nt much of a diff.It onli started gettin cold n rainy during last sat n sunday,jus like wat a taipei taxi driver told me n my frens 'winter is comin'.

I can't realli tell wat i do for e last 12 days or else SAF is goin 2 charge me(wait until ord,den i blog all bout it).However,e last 2 days is more memorable.

Sat:
Left e camp in e morning 2 go 2 liu fu theme park,1st destination for R&R(rest n recreation).Actually,it was my 1st time goin 2 a theme park,so dere's alot 2 expect n b sua ku about.The 1st ride i took was something like a lift.One has 2 sit in e ride where u'll b taken 50 m up in e air n suddenly fall 2 e ground.It was super scary n real fun.I'll put e photo nxt time.Nxt is e viking ship n my last ride is called e ring of fire.That ride is realli sick.It's a coaster ride but mus go round n round a circle rail.Luckily i nv vomit or faint...hehe.

After e theme park,we headed straight 4 hotel in taipei.On e way,e tour bus brought us 2 buy some native products.For me i bought 2 boxes of sun biscuit.When we arrived,it was ard 6pm liao n it took me n my frens 1.5 hrs 2 hurry 2 shilin night market.There r lots of gd buys n gd food ard tat area.Hehe...i bought 1 t-shirt n ate stinky tofu wif e bros.The tofu realli stinks,nt jus in smell but also e after-taste.But it taste gd,ironically...heehee.Near e shilin mrt station,we also played 2 games dere n won a dice(nt those small ones lah!!).After all e shopping n eating n firing e pistols,we went back 2 e hotel wif a full stomach n some stuffs.

Sun:
Me n my frens woke up in e morning n head 2 taipei 101 via metro trains.In taipei,normal train rides will nd u 2 buy plastic chips 2 go thru e ticketing gates.Pretty interesting.The stations r veri well ventilated,maybe too well ventilated.30 mins,we reached taipei 101 n went up the tower.Taipei 101 is currently e tallest buidling in e world at 449.2 m n e lifts r e fastest in e world also.The lifts took jus 37 sec 2 reach 2 89th lvl frm e 5th lvl.Overall,it is an architectural n engineering wonder.The final destination after taipei 101 is ximenting,taipei's orchard road.Ximenting was super crowded wif shoppers n fans coz dere's some boyband holding autrograph session.We had a hard time going thru e crowd but it was worthwhile coz we shopped what we wanted at bargained price,onli 4 me.I wished dere would b abit more time,so tat i can buy watever in my shoppin list.However,ximenting is a mus-go place if one comes 2 taipei.After tat,we went back 2 e hotel n head straight 4 e airport.The rest is history

Hmm...i'll put up e photos soon.So nitey!!
