the long awaited Day 2
well, we took the train up to jiu fen like i said in the photos..hah..tt ultra freakish but way too cool ride! and started walking. went there cos it supposedly had nice things to eat.heh..cos basically in taipei..the shops dont open till 11plus? tt's for shopping centres.for the night markets and wad not..they open in the late afternoon wor. so we had to busy oursleves.
we walked up n down up and down.it was on a hill so climbing is tiring!! decided to stop somewhere for lunch after our legs cant take it. heh..lu rou fan! i have no idea wad to call tt in eng but it's everywhere in taipei. anyway the shops in jiu fen were mainly food stores la.jelly, peanut candy, bin tang hu lu! my absolute fav! yum yum yum yum!!!!!!! strawberries in maltose candy! yummy!
the one i'm holding! tt's the one! it's sweet n sour and juicy! i miss it already lo.. the funny thing abt the place we ate at was tt the whole entire store was deco-ed in the female boss' photos. she literally wallpapered the entire place! has her posing with celebs, posing with a flower, posing with anything n anyone lo.quite funny.super exaggerated la..talking abt being zi
lian..i think she gets first prize if there ever was a competition.anyway, we walked ard n decided to try fried monster mushrooms! hahah.. it's aptly and proudly called "tian xia di yi gu!"
after which we ate some shell like thingie's meat..hahah..i have no idea how to read it in chi. but it was BAGUS!! nice nic nice...erm...i've no idea where's my pic gone to le. oh well.
after all tt eating, we went to eat somemore..hahah..some muachee thingamaging..gtg..meeting erjie now..

How nice it is to do nothing and then rest afterwards
dunno wad to title this as since it would be pretty random.ah ha..tot of it..
went to sing ktv twice in a row! oh man..but still not tt shuang.not high enuf.. last time sing with the girls can really go crazy de.but think ytd was cos they were all late den not enuf time to warm up den we had to go le.
wanted to do a photoblog abt my taipei trip de.but it was like..kinda odd..plus i dunno how to insert pics into my blog without using hello. hmm..let's try some buttons to see how..
i think i found it.but the prob now is how do i put in midway into this blog entry. hmmmmm..
.let's see...oooh..i can just drag the pic..hmm..kinda cool eh! i feel quite smart..well if u think i'm slow/dumb..i'm not leh..i did try tt button the last time but u had to have uploaded ur pic somewhere first before u can use it. hmm..guess they improved blogspot without my knowledge. neh~~ anyway, this is the view from up there..welcome to taipei! naruwan~! hahah...back to being random..any idea wad's the title of the samsung advert song? "the boys watch the girls while the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by..." i think it's kinda cool la. heh
ppl, any suggestions as to wad to do during ur hols..when u're slacking n there's no jobs as of now? n u desparately need sth to pass time..sth tt's hopefully cheap..and maybe sporty? heh..
shld i pick up cross stitching? i feel like trying but den it's like i vaguely rmb trying to do it when i wass much younger only to result in screwing everything up cos threads dont agree with me n they like to tangle themselves..ugh..maybe i shld get down to making my taipei scrapbk huh..
in the midst of random tot i tot of erjie..hey girl..huggies for no reason..ha! just wanna chiko u! ha! poke ur hip and run away..
shall end here bah..wanna play some games le

this is the scary train ride to jiu fen...we bought tix from this machine after consulting the tourist info counter at the train station. this is like their choo-choo train, huo che thing..little did we noe our tix didnt allow us to sit on the chairs..nice comfy chairs...but we happily plopped down onto it anyway.heh..till ppl came and told us it's their seats.heh..quite embarrassing. den we were 'banished' to this place in the middle of 2 carriages..the scary part was..one of the doors is left open! if we fell, we could just roll out onto the tracks or wadever there was out there! and..the journey to jiu fen is like..erm 45mins? to std 45mins! sighhhh...it was so terribly freakish when an oncoming train zoomed past us..the sound is like kinda "wow!" and u cant see much cos the trains move pretty fast..all of us had to grab on to wadever we could..which is not a lot to begin with..but halfway into the ride..we figured how to close tt door..-_-''' tt lessened the danger factor quite a bit and allowed for pics like these!!! ha!

FREE telephones in the airport! whee~!!was so happy to be able to talk awhile before boarding.cos i sadly didnt bring my hp along.no roaming, no point. *pout*
