Day1, 26th March 2008- Met up with Nickolas and ShaoHong at T3 to check-in before going for a quick bite and make our way to the departure hall and towards our plane...it was a LONG walk...T3 is HUGE!! so yupp!! thanks mummy, daddy and evalyn for sending me to the airport((: took off in the plane and i enjoyed my meals and coke!! *yUmYUm* cant wait to land at Taiwan cos it's been more than a month since i got to see dO_ob.....-.- miss her lotz^^ but when i saw her at taiwan airport, i didnt know wad to do? just kind of blankly stare at her throughout..(n_n) as she was still confuse whether she loves me as a friend or the other kind..i had a pact with her that when she's ready, signal me by holding my hand..so i didnt do much but i sticked close to her and enjoyed the vision of her with my bare eyes intead of via webcam..(^^,) *lalala* the group of us kinda screwed up on the 1st day while meeting at taiwan airport..but eventually we still gathered at taiwan's T2 somehow or another..started off by purchasing the prepaid telephone card to make calls and we went on to take the "Free-Go" bus to our hotel..everything was great!! just that why the toilet has no lock-.- kinda feel insecure and so, me and ZiXuan went to the guys room to shower, leaving the room to shuxian, valarie and eunice..XD after resting for awhile, we went to our first Night Market, "Shi Lin Ye Shi" it was packed!! colourful!! MESSY!! didnt know wad to tackle at that point of time..so tried the "Ou Ah Jian", "Ji Pai", some drinks and we nearly exploded for some reason or another..walked around before taking the last train at 12+am to return to the hotel..and yupp!! planned the route for the next day with shushu and slept at about 3+am? tiring.....*yAwn*d-_-b

Day2, 27th March 2008-had the breakfast set provided by the hotel..egg, ham, bread an a cup of tea..before setting off to "Dan Shui" station to check out..couldn't find the "Ah Po Tie Dan" thingy and so after awhile, we went off and proceed to "Xin Bei Tou"..visited the "museum" and walked around..visiting library and some other tourist spot..snapped pictures and yupp!! Nickolas, ZiXuan, Valarie and Eunice went for the HotSpring bath while me, Shuxian ShaoHong proceed to a "Niu Rou Mian" stall to eat!! cos i keep bugging them to eat "Niu Rou Mian"..and yarr..after that me, shuxian and shaohong walked around before meeting up with the rest before proceeding up to "Yang Ming Shan" the mini-bus ride was horrible!! scary and bumpy!! we got off the bus and walked around, taking pictures of scenary, garbage truck, etc etc and guess what?!? WE GOT LOST!! hahaz!! got "chaseed" by dogs to a corner somemore((: luckily came a taxi which brought us down..imagine all of us squeezing into 1taxi..it was an experience we wont forget(^^,) and another experience i wont forget..V(^o,^)v while at the mountain, dO_ob has finally decided and she place her hand on my hand suddenly!! i was like...wOw!! was really happy..the kind of floating into the sky, speechless those kind of feeling..hahaz!! and yupp...i double check with her once more if she've really make up her mind..and when she knod her head, i held her hand(n_n) she've decided!! ^-^ *lalala* after that we went on to snake alley night market..ate at a stall and it was NICE!! all the braised stuff and yupp!! snakes everywhere!! sex toys shop everywhere too!! all the penis dangling at the glass panel of the shop-.- LOL~ that night market was sure eye-opening..=D after that i bought a cup of "Ku Cha" and WAH!!!! it was damn bitter..i could hardly swallow it..but as everyone was staring at me drinking it, i tried pretending it was really really out of the world the kind of extraordinary taste which is so nice!! so val took a sip too and i keep reminding her it's really very nice so that she'll join me in the act and not give it away^^ and everyone tried!! except shushu..hahz!! so couldn't take it any longer..we didnt even finish 1/4 of it though all of us shared..i threw it away..next stop was "Chou Dou Fu" i all along wanted to try it..but for some reason or another!!! i couldn't take it!! the moment i put in my mouth and started chewing.....i swallowed alittle and it emits a horrendous smell via my throat which i seriously cant take it!! DAMN STINK!! ULTRA TURBO STINK!! phobia with "Chou Dou Fu" i doubt i'll ever try again((: after walking that night market, we've decided to walked back to the hotel..it was a LONG an COLD walk!! but FUN!! adventure..c",) nearly got lost but didnt get lost and we even visited carrefour to get some stuff before going back..was holding dO_ob's hand..^^ drop by at 7-11 too before going back to the hotel..slept at about 3+am again..d-_-b TIRED!! zZzZzz...

Day3, 28th March 2008-woke up late today cos really cmi...thought breakfast was until 1030hours and is actually 1000hours..so yupp!! missed breakfast and we went out to ximending area to eat instead..it was our FIRST proper meal in taiwan..cos most of the time we'll be having finger food..anyway today is a day at ximending..shopping, shopping and more shopping..((: was walking around holding dO_ob's hand...seriously is my first time.....hahaz!! abit paiseh but the feeling's great(^^,) came across this couple keychain which was very very nice!! i love it..so decided to get it for her as our "1st month" gift..^^ but correctly should be "1st/4 1st month" our 1st month shd be 4months then consider 1st month..*lalala* as shuxian was always around, i couldn't buy it until when she went shopping for "dotz" with val and eunice..then i went to buy the keychain..luckily i bump into nick, shao and xuan..so they accompanied me..((: after shopping at ximending, met up with val's taiwan friend, Frank..he brought us to try some "Mee Sua" thingy and i love it!! the texture is different of that of singapore's "Mee Sua"..theirs was more on the chewy type..=D after that had mochi and i ordered the honey one!! myfav!! love honey!! and it was nice!!!!!! i was in love with it..if not cos of that queue, i'll have bought more to eat!! ))': and later on, we walked our separate way as val and eunice followed their friends, me shu xuan shao nick walked around together..finding shuxian's idol, "Xiao Zhu Luo Zhi Xiang's" shop and we nearly got lost again!! when we finally found it..shuxian was really disappointed because the shop was located at such deserted place plus there wasn't much things to see at all...poor her..hahaz...like being thrown down from a high building..)): so to feel better!! we went to eat "Chua Bing" which is what singapore's selling, similar to that of snow-ice..valarie and eunice join us soon and after eating, we've decided to go back to "Shi Lin" again..as we have not really finish shopping..this time, when we reached there, we set a time to meet before we spread out..shopped with Shuxian and bought a bear shirt with her..^^ we shopped till it's so late that we nearly missed the last train!! we got to run and run just to rush for the last train cos it was waiting for us..it was like wOw!!!!! an unforgetable eventful day again!! rushing and running like mad ppl...and yarr...hahaz!! 1st month has arrived as me and shuxian entered a clothing shop..she told me a sentence which i wont be sharing here and i replied 恩..holding her hand tighter, wanted to hug her but i didnt dare..hahz!! so i told her i got something for her..and she said she dun want..heee....but i wanted to give her later on(^^,) so while rushing to take the last train, both of us were at the tunnel where we exchanged gift and had a 5s hug before turning into mad ppl rushing and running for train..kekz!! guess that's all for the day!! i'll remember everything that happen in taiwan for sure^^ slept at around 3+am again....omg!!! ultra tired.....

Day4, 29th March 2008- our first month~ as we woke up late, though we had our breakfast, we rushed like mad to take the train to TaiZhong..took taxi to the train station and board on the train after buying the tix..sat with shuxian and we were talking on the train..she didn't sleep last night!! stayed awake to read book and watch tv..she must be really tired..but before i let her rest on her forever pillow, i opened the present she gave me and there was 2necklace..she put the male one on me while i put the female one on her..and i forced her to nap..so yupp!! all the way until dunno wad station and we got to stand up already..upon reaching taizhong..the stairs was like WAHH!! we got to carry our luggage.....got out of the train station, got some information before getting taxi to the hotel we booked..IT WAS HORRIBLE!! even the hotel name has changed!! wth!! jetstar is a scammer!! jetstar really ID 10 T!! but we put down our luggage before proceeding to find km...had "Niu Rou Mian"!! and it was delicious!! i love the "Hong Cha" red tea..((: after that was touring around km's school before night fall and we went to the night market there..this time it was good!! the things were cheaper and we bought more stuff from this night market...or at least the guys bought more stuff..=PpP tried a few goodies and went back to the hotel soon after that..km and friends stayed around until 11+pm before leaving and by the time i took my shower and came out, it was near12am i think..this sucky hotel via jetstar sux hightime!! it was so eerie..i couldn't stand it when i was showering..so took a quick one before going out..seeing shuxian so troubled over the hotel really make me feel useless..promised her mum not to have such sucky hotel and i personally do not want shuxian to feel uneasy or something..that moment really cast me away, feeling ultra useless because shuxian didnt even want to share with me how uncomfortable she was..really felt useless.....was so angry with myself and angry with everything an i really mean angry and hate myself..then dunno wad got into me, as i went downstairs, i couldn't even remember what i said and i settled everything!! change hotel, taxi will arrive in 10minutes time..so went upstairs, tell them pack up and leave right away..at 12+am? got on the taxi, travel to "Quan Guo" hotel and it was awesome there..nice!! but i was like leaving in my own realm and all i felt was tired emotionally..i was opening my eyes but staring into daze most of the time..dunno what got into me..anyway yarr...that's our adventure of the day..slept at 4+am..

FUN FUN FUN!! whole day at the theme park..but shuxian was really tired..hahaz..let her rest on her forever pillow again all the way until when we reach back the hotel..((: met up with km for dinner at sogo shopping mall..NICE!! so many lift each with an attendant..the place was really beautiful..i bought lots of Hi-Chew sweet!! cos it's so cheap compared to singapore(n_n) walked around before going back to the hotel to rest..km stayed over too!!=) sWeEtDrEams..
