i love slacking~~

went to collect my M1a guide @ MAS yest, met up with Cousin Joy for lunch as her office is really near the place.. haven seen her for almost a yr.... time doesnt seems to have any effect on her cause she still looks so attractive.. hehee.....


we catch up about alot of things.. i also asked her about alot regarding her work & how's the market is going to be like....


after lunch, i went to collect the guide & took a bus down to Orchard to meet ah ma... as usual, she was late.. so i went to walk ard @ my fav. hangout -- > Watsons.. i just love shopping at Watsons, esp the Taka one cause its damn big!!


we started walking ard doing some window shopping b4 deciding to go & find wanyui, who is working @ Suntec.. planned to give her a surprise but we failed cause she is not @ the workplace.. ;(


we went to MS & shop b4 having our dinner @ Waraku... mus thx Wayne for introducing me this place.. thk i am quite addicted to the food there.. hee... bought a pair of shoes from Charles & Keith.. am trying to get my working clothes bit by bit now....

i made it~~~

the heading stands for 2 things which happened in 2 days... shall start with the one yest....


i met HIM.. we haven seen each other for almost a yr & never really had a serious talk or watsoever during this period.. den u mus be wondering why we met each other yest... well, its really impromptu & random.. its all because of the trainee trader/dealer interview i had today... he is like the only one in my group of frenz who had gone for this type of related interview & got in somemore.. so i wanna ask him about some interview tips & stuffs...


if u ask me is this an excuse for me to find a chance to meet him after so long... well, i can only say its a gd opportunities to meet up, so why not?? its also time for us to catch up.. :)


i duno for him, i can only say i was quite nervous b4 i met him... but the whole catching up session turns out to be quite comfortable & enjoyable... i quite like that feelings.. thk i had really got over the whole issue.. we only chatted for an hour & he had to go back to work... as for me, i had to roam ard in Orchard cause Mr Qin Cheng stood me up because of his MIA Tv set...


i just started loitering ard in Orchard, walking ard aimlessly for 2 hours b4 anna, shaoyun & meiyun arrived... by the time i was quite famished... we went to Fish & Co @ paragon for dinner..

the mouth-watering complimentary salad..

San Thit was supposed to meet us for dinner but i thk she is really busy with her work cause when we finished the food, she is still at her office... we went to the Coffee Club nearby for a coffee session.. i ordered my fav. mud-pie even though i felt really full...

we decide to pass anna her belated b'day present after San Thit said she wont be joining us cause of her work.. we bought her a Swavorski necklace.. i thk it looks lovely on her..

today is a super hectic day for me.. 2 interviews in a day with a damn big KA-LONG in between them.. the worse thing is i was super unprepared for the morning interview cause the HR only tells me like <24>

i sort of screwed up for my morning interview cause the day just din start out well.. on top of that, i am quite tensed up already due to the afternoon interview session which is like scheduled days ago... i really treated the afternoon one very seriously cause its an interview for my dream job.... 1st time in my life i prepared for an interview until so seriously & felt so nervous about it....

after the 1st one, i met up with shaoyun for lunch.. was supposed to meet anna after that to acc her for her medical appt but i din cause of the timing... i stayed at the Starbucks nearby, trying to recall some of my previous investment stuffs but i just cannot squeeze any information in... in e end, i end up msn-ing for that 2 full hours there....

i went earlier than i was scheduled.. the interview was not wat i had expected it to be.. they din ask those qns which i had anticipated them to ask & the interviewer were not as intimidating like i tot they to be... the session only lasted for 15 min & they offered me the job... no additional rounds of interviews like i tot & they gave me an answer immediately also.. till now, i still cannot believe i got in...

i am grinning from ear to ear when i walked out of the building.. called my mum to tell her the news immediately.. this is e 2nd time i felt this way, the 1st time is when i got my driving license..

went to meet anna & came back for dinner b4 coming to my house to make the flight booking for bbk... but due to some unforeseen circumstances, we might have to change to another destination or even postpone the trip.. shall see how it goes... :)

missing~~

its a very simple yet profound word... it has 2 meaning, 1st one will be u are thking about someone, 2nd one will be something that is lacking... for me, this 2 meaning are actually linked... when u are thinking about someone its because this person is actually not with u or missing in ur life.....


for the past 1 ~2 weeks, i saw anna going thru the same thing which i had gone thru in e past.. the long lost feeling that a r/s will bring to our life comes back to find me once again... it made me thk of him more & more frequent...


i told anna that i'll never ever had the courage to go thru all this things once more... i am really afraid of r/s now... afraid of the hurtful feelings which will linger for very long for me once it starts... i haf like totally lost faith in it...


seeing wat anna has gone thru now made me reflect about wat i am doing in e past when it happened to me.. wat she is doing now is wat i had done, just that now i can see clearer from an outsider point of view.. this view made me realise how silly i was in e past.. the person involved will really be blinded by love cause they will not see those things which are damn clear to em...


when the outsider tell em about it, they will not listen to it & will just go ahead with wat their heart told em to do, which most of the time, will hurt them even more.. we just like to learnt it the hard way, cause that's the only time we learn.... this is just like a cycle, a cycle that will keep on repeating...


wat i am telling her during our gathering is actually wat i wanted to tell & warn myself... i am really scare that i will not be able to act like wat i had told her to if i were to encounter this shit once again... gals will always be gals... always allowing themselves to be blinded by love...

birthday celeb~~

went for a frenz b'day celebration for 2 consecutive day... feeling abit shag now but the whole thing was really fun n enjoyable.. :)

i went for my UOB 2nd round interview in e afternoon on fri.. it was a damn long n tiring session.. the whole session took almost 2.5 hours.. i was already quite seh when i am at the last part of the profiling test.. i duno wat i am answering, jus simply anyhow answer so i guess my answers are quite inconsistent...


after the session ended, i rushed back to woodlands cause i am having my tuition from 530 to 730... went back home n had dinner b4 changing into a new set of clothes for the nite activities.. both of us din know where is butterfactory & had a hard time finding it..


the place is playing R & B but i still thk phuture is e best place for it.. the crowd is also quite different there, mostly working adults.. we stayed there until 3 when the club closed.. a fren sent me n anna back home & i only managed to slp ard 5 am..


i woke up ard 10 plus cause will be having tuition with my sec 4 gal.. after tuition, i had to go down to my grandma's place to run an errand for my mum.. stayed there chatting with my aunties n cousins whom i haven been seeing for quite some time b4 i left to meet anna @ AMK...


we shopped ard for Hsien Hong's present & waited for amanda b4 going down to his place... his place is quite cosy n big.. we waited for everyone he invited to arrive & started the cake-cutting session...

we celebrated anna's birthday for her which falls on the same week..

we were drinking & playing some games at his place.. drk a few bottles & cans of red wine & beer.. ard 11 plus, we decide to go to ktv instead & drove down to the Partyworld @ Orchard.. the b'day boy started dozing off during the ktv session.. guess he is really tired out by the late night out for the past 3 days...

the thing ended about 430 & the guys sent us back home b4 going back to their place which is at AMK & buangkok... :) thx for sending us back home.....

dilemma~~

i was being offered the headhunter job on wed.. i went down again to meet with their divisional manager & staffs to get more insights about wat the job is really about.. after hearing wat they said, i really felt interested & wanted very much to take up the job & give it a try...


they sent me down to the HR to take a look at the package which they will be offering me.. upon seeing the package, i find that there is a need for me to really consider about the job offer.. the T & C was really demanding.. i duno if that is the case for each n every job cause this is the 1st time i am seeing one..


after that session, i am finally giving my career & job thingy a serious tot.. i had always wanted to go into trading.. should i just start out as a trainee trader right away or should i go into banking den switch to it after that?? from wat i heard from the others, trading & banking doesnt have any links at all... should i just continue searching for the job until i found one that i like or should i just take up any banking job that comes along to gain some experience 1st???


i have wasted my 1 yr right after i grad from JC because of some reasons so right now, i dun wan to waste anymore time... wat should i do now??

looking for a goal~~

life seems really monotonous for me now.. there's nth for me to look forward to.. thk its time for me to move on to another stage of my life -- > working..


i have been slacking for more than 2 months.. finally i am getting bored of the rotting life i am leading now.. i wanna get a job soon & tried sth new which i have never really tried before.. but den on the other hand, i know that once i start my working life, i will never be able to go out with my mum as n when like wat i am doing now.. :(


the interviewer asked me the other am i a complicated person? well, i thk i am one.. like now, i wan to start my working life soon but i cant bear to give up the freedom which i have when i am slacking at home.. no more going to dim sum & buffet with my mum in e afternoon or tea time, no more going to genting as n when i want, no more slping late, no more rotting with my mum in the living room together for the whole day n so on......


so wat i should do now is try to acc her as much as possible.. should go to the chinatown dim sum buffet with her some time soon but this wk i damn packed with tuition from Mon to Thur.. my kids are having their exams.. feel like giving up my tuition class asap.. nowadays, i have no more passion in teaching them, when the time come for their tuition, i'll be dragging my feet to the place n hoping time will pass by asap but most of the time, i will feel the contrary..

interview, moive & club..

its another day filled with programme as usual.. ever since i am back from taiwan, i either like to pack my day full of prog if not, i will be slacking the whole day at home..


went for my interview @ battery rd early in e morning.. this time round, i din waited very long b4 the interviewer came into the room.. its not as bad as the 2nd one but neither is he very frenly like the 1st interviewer.. he keeps on emphasising about me being stubborn n impatient.. i duno its the impression i give him tat causes him to make that statement or isit because of the profile test which i had taken.. he said that he will consider & give me an answer next wk...


right after the interview, i went to Suntec cause i will be meeting Wayne for movie.. i was really early & decide to shop ard for a frenz present & also for my working clothes.. need to add some collection to the pathetic lot i had at home..


went to G2000 & tried out alot of their clothes.. had a hard time getting the right size cause its my 1st time i am getting it.. luckily the sales auntie there is really nice n frenly & helped out with my selection.. Wayne came right to G2000 to find me & help me with the selection also...


after paying we went to the cinema quickly cause we were like 10 min late for the show.. we missed part of the show, hope it wont affect too much.. we watched 'The X-files' & i thk it was a wrong move.. :(


when the show ended, both of us were feeling really hungry.. Wayne suggested to go to the Japanese restaurant @ the 1st level of MS.. i never knew there is a Jap restaurant there.. i forgot wat is the name already but the food there is really nice... must thx Wayne for the recommendation & also the treat.. :)


we talked about alot of things, esp those on our Taiwan trip.. both of us went there ard the same time with different group & happened to meet @ Xi Men Ding.. hehe.. they really combed alot of places in Taipei.. its almost twice as much as us... i really wonder how they manage to do it in 6 days??


we walked to peninsular plaza after the meal to shop for his frenz present & settled down for coffee @ Raffles City.. We parted after the coffee session & i went to meet Anna @ cwp.. we stayed there until 8 plus b4 deciding to join Anthan & his frenz for a clubbing session @ St James.. it was really impromptu & sudden..


we reached there ard 1030 & waited for Hsien Hong, anna's frenz, & Anthan to arrive b4 going in.. isit because of the music or isit because i am old already cause i dun really enjoy dancing like how i used to in the past.. sometimes i cant even dance to the music.. on top of that, i dun really like to socialise ard with their frenz also.. only replied to things which they asked & never probe more.. just wat's happening to me now??

amazing~~

yest i received a call that shock me the most in this entire year... i was called up for the 3rd round interview which was linked to the one that i tot i had screwed up totally... that was really amazing... i had never tot of making it thru the 2nd round when i walked out of the interview room the other day..


i will be going to my 3rd round tml & this time, i will be meeting their senior director.. i am wondering will this interviewer be worse den the 2nd one that i had met.. i was only told to be there by 11 & that's all.. so i shall just 见招拆招.. haha..


went to meet anna & shaoyun for dinner just now.. wanted to pass them the souvenir which i had bought for em in taiwan but i forgot to bring it together with me.. that's so forgetful of me lo..


after dinner, we went to shop for my working clothes.. its time for me to start buying it little by little rather den mass purchasing when the time comes.. but the variety of working clothes, esp long sleeve shirts are so limited.. its already very boring @ work so i would like my clothes to be ' a little bit more' fanciful, in terms of its color & design... but its really hard to get wat i wan... simple yet fanciful...


as usual, we went for our catching up session @ Mac.. talk about alot of things & at some pt my tone was quite harsh... its just that moment, the emotion & everything but i dun mean any harm... must apologise to the gals if my words hurts em..

tired~

i went for my 2nd round interview this morning @ Ngee Ann City.. like e other time, i din prepare anything for the interview session.. but come to thk of it, even if i did prepare, the results will not be any different from now also..


this is e 1st time i felt intimidated by an interviewer.. he is the CEO of the company & his job is mainly to interview potential candidate for his company.. i was totally 'grilled' by him during the session & most of the time, i could not find anything to rebute him..


unlike any other interviewer who asked me qns, he did it e other way round.. its something which i have never encountered before & it really took me by surprise.. i was stunned for a moment trying to figure out wat type of qns should i asked.. i know that no matter wat i asked him, it will appear to be stupid & senseless to him.. in e end, i just give up on the interview by treating it as a normal chit chatting session with a older uncle...


he can asked qns like do u buy 4D, telling me about wat his police frenz @ changi prison told him.. its really not the conventional interview that i had expected.. i am totally caught off-guard.. he is trying hard to pin me down & i am so defenceless in front of him most of the time.. he is really one of a kind... but i am really grateful to him for treating me this way instead..


during the 15 - 20 min interview, he really enlightened me alot.. he made me realise alot of things & see things @ a different perception, a perception which i could have never seen n tot of b4 i met him... its really a very gd & special interview experience that not many ppl will have the chance to go thru... ppl learn from mistake & they like to learn it the hard way.. sad to say, i belongs to this group.. he really make me wake up my idea on alot of things...


after the interview, i went to Suntec to meet anna's frenz to pass her to Flyers ticket b4 meeting cheng @ marina square for movie.. after buying the tic, we went to have our lunch @ Secret Recipe.. its one of my fav place for cheesecake.. hehe..

chicken kebab for lunch..

we watched 'the mummy'.. i was really mesmerised by Jet Li.. he look so man in that show.. hehe.. after that, we just walked around for time to pass b4 going for my tuition @ 7pm.. met wanyui @ Suntec, she was on e way back home to study for her HI paper tml....


while walking back to City Link for our desserts, i got a call for another interview next tue @ SIM.. this time round, its a bank job & most imptly, its a sales job.. hope i wont screw up my interview like wat i did today...


we wanted to have some ice cream from the new desserts shop @ City Link but we were confused by the wide variety of ice cream they served.. due to the overwhelming choice available & finding it hard to choose the one we really want, we decide to go for other stuffs @ Raffles City...





finally we settled down @ Bens & Jerrys.. i love their Strawberry Cheesecake.. its simply lovely.. hehe.. i can just easily finished 1 whole tub...

yummy yummy..

i went for my tuition after the dessert session.. only managed to reach home ard 10pm.. its simply tiring..

missing taipei~~

i am still having this 'hangover' thingy after i am back from my taiwan trip.. i miss taipei so so much.. i miss the time i spent with my shan & guys.. i miss everything....... :~~(


i have been feeling damn restless ever since the trip.. its like i have nth to achieve n do now.. in e past, my goal is to get study hard & get excellent results.. after i grad, my goal is to go for a grad trip.. so i told myself before that is accomplished, i will not thk of anything.. now, my grad trip has finally come to an end, so wat should i do nexT?? feeling really lost~~


for the past few days i am trying to upload those photos onto my facebook account & to update my blog.. i took more den 6 hours in total to get everything done.. still got another 140 more from cheng's camera & duno how many more from billy one... we are suppose to meet tml night @ my place to collate the photos @ play MJ but billy cant come over due to some transportation problem...


i will be going for my 2nd round interview @ orchard tml.. its not a bank nor trader job.. the job nature is more like a headhunter.. its something which i have never tot i will go into.. for me, its more like since i got into the 2nd round, i should just go n give the interview a try.. they might not want me in e end, so why thk so much?? worse come to worse i will just continue to teach tuition until end of nov....


finding a job is such a difficult chore.. this is esp so when u are looking for a full time job which really interest u.. in e past, when i am doing part-time everything is so smooth sailing... i always got the job which i wan & never flunk my interview... things are so different now..

Taiwan trip~~

i am finally back from the 7D6N taiwan trip but my mind & heart is still there.. i am beginning to miss the 蚵阿煎, 木瓜牛奶, 红烧牛肉面, 卤肉饭.... the food there is really superb... u can get really nice food from just any store, this is esp so for their bubble tea.. i accomplished all my 'mission' that i planned to complete there.. hehe.. super duper happy... :)

24th july : Changi Airport, 士林夜市 & 钱柜

we meet up @ billy's place in e morning as his dad offered to send us to the airport.. we reached the airport ard 1030 & managed to check-in after a short wait.. we went to BK @ T2 for our brunch.. after finishing the food, we went into the waiting area to shop.. hehe.. wanted to get my shu uemura concealer but its out of stock.. we took the sky train to go back to T1 where we board the plane.. i never know that we can board a sky train from the waiting area..

its been 10 yrs since i last took an airplane abroad.. everything seems so interesting to me.. must thx cheng for giving up the window seat to me.. there's a mini cock-up after the plane took off & made me felt that a travel insurance is really essential when u go abroad..

the plane finally landed in taiwan ard 5 plus.. we took a bus from the airport to taipet main station where our hostel is.. we took quite sometime to locate the hostel.. when we finally found it with some help from the local, we were quite surprised that it is inside a high-rise building.. yeah, inside a building.. we always tot that the hostel will be some kind of low & old building but this one really surprise us..

the gals & guys were temporarily seperated as there are no more rooms to accomodate the 4 of us.. have to wait until the next day den there will be one.. we changed into our casual wear & make a move to their famous 士林夜市 for a sumptous feast of their local 小吃..

i was really impressed by the 士林奇景.. those who had been there will know wat i am referring to.. billy & cheng wanted to bring me & lishan to their famous dessert shop but their mission failed cause we practically stopped at every 2 shops we passed by & din managed to walk until the end of the street where the dessert shop is.. time is running out also as we had to catch the last train back to 西门町 where we will be singing @ the famous 钱柜 ktv..

the whole building is occupied by 钱柜 & its open 24hour.. i really love the night life in taipei.. we found the best 炸鸡排 @ the most unexpected place ----> 钱柜.. the one that we ate @ the 夜市 really sux... we sing until 4 plus & managed to walk back to our hotel using the map we took @ the airport..

25th july : 五分埔, 西门町 & Babe

we woke up @ 10 cause need to change to another room.. the plan for today will be going to 五分埔 to shop & clubbing @ night but firstly, we need to have our breakfast 1st.. we intend to go to 西门町 for our meal but changed the plan when we walked pass a old store selling 牛肉面.. luckily we stopped & eat there if not, we will be missing alot of gd food.. i can say ALL the things that is available there is simply delectable..

after the meal, we continued walking ard & i saw a 3 storey Watson.. i went straight in & was amazed by the wide variety of cosmetic & skincare product in there.. i just look ard & stopped myself from getting anything cause we still need to go n shop elsewhere..

we arrived @ 五分埔 in the early afternoon & seperated from the guys.. its really a shopping heaven for gals & guys.. we went @ the right time of the year cause they are selling summer clothings now which is really suitable for our weather.. the ppl there is really frenly & when we asked them where should we go for water sport & clubbing, they recommend us a few places like Luxy & Lava straightaway..

we left ard 5 plus & went back to the hostel to rest & prepare for the night.. we only leave for dinner ard 9 plus & went to 西门町 where we met lijing, luke, liwen & wayne, who had just arrived that evening.. they din joined us to club as planned so we went on our own.. took a cab down & realised Lava is actually at 华纳威秀 but we din went in there, we went to a club known as BABE.. the crowd is really young & the ratio of gals is really pathetic.. :(

i realised the guys @ taiwan club loves to talk.. maybe they are just being frenly & nice to foreigner like us.. i love their concept there.. pay the entrance fee & its free flow all night long with drks like Long Island, Sex On the Beach to Beer & Housepour.. that applies for the guys also.. i wonder when this concept will come into Singapore's club..

we stayed there until 2 plus.. me & cheng were damn sober when we came out of the club.. i din drk alot cause i am scared of the feeling when we get drunk.. ever since the Singapore River incident last yr, i told myself i will try my best not to be in that state anymore... as for billy, i will say that he is DAMN high...

26th july : 八仙乐园 & 淡水

we planned to go to 八仙乐园 & we did.. @ first i still tot that the trip will be cancelled because of the late night out yest but all of us managed to wake up by 1030 & got everything prepared & done by 1115...

we went to the Taipei Main Station to get our ticket to 瑞芳, where we can go to Jiu Fen by taking a cab from there.. we know nuts about the the cab thing until a kind volunteer @ the train station briefed us about the different types of train available & the best time to go there etc.... we felt damn lucky to have met so many helpful & frenly local there.. they are really our lucky star & tour guide... :)

after settling the ticket, its meal time.. we had our lunch b4 taking e MRT down to 淡水 where we were told to take a ferry to 八里, where we must take another bus to reach 八仙乐园.. sounds damn complicating & tiring rite.. well, IT IS... this is not the only route to reach our destination but we were told that's the fastest way to reach there... we simply utilised almost ALL the mode of transportation just to go to a theme park...

all the troubles & hassle are worth it.. the theme park is really amazing & i love their tarzan swing station... that pool is 3.6m deep with a tarzan rope above it, the player have to hold onto the rope on a platform & swing outward b4 letting go & fall into the pool.. i was alittle petrified by the height when my turn comes & b4 i could thk of anything, i just swing myself out... i am afraid that if i linger there for too long, i might not have the courage to play it anymore....

we stayed there until 5 plus & b4 we left, we had a brand new experience with the Doctor Fish that helps to 'eat' your dead skin & cells.. it felt really ticklish but its really fun... we took the bus back to 八里 & the time is just nice for the 夜市 to start..

the fried octopus there is simply heavenly.. I AM MISSING IT.. we tried the 臭豆腐 & i can announced i am not a a fan of it.. the ambience is really nice & the scenery is really beautiful.... i finally understand why its so crowded @ 淡水 during weekend... its really a very nice getaway from the concrete jungle where u can basked urself in old & traditional style buildings & food.. its really a very different experience..

27th july : 九份, 五分埔 & 台风

finally we get to go to 九份 but the thing is we must come back asap cause typhoon is approaching in e evening.. :(

this morning is the most rushing one for all of us cause we had to catch the train & must be @ the station 5 min b4 the train arrived.. we were there on time & managed to find our platform & seats w/o much trouble.. the train journey to 瑞芳 took 50 min & i was taking photos of the scenery on the full journey there...

the wind is blowing very strongly & the weather is very different from the past few days.. we took a cab to 九份 & its only den i realised that the place is on a mountain.. i was stunned by the beautiful seaview of 金瓜石.. its really spectacular when u look down from viewing area..

i really love 九份老街.. its very beautiful & the feeling is totally different.. if there's a chance i will wan to stay at the hostel there so that i can explore the place fully.. too bad we have to make this a very rush trip because of the typhoon but i am glad we went there.. :)

we stayed until 2 plus & turned back to taipei.. lishan & i decide to go back to 五分埔 for our final shopping spree.. as for cheng & billy they decide to go to catch a movie.. so we went out seperate way.. this time the shopping trip w/o the guys is so carefree & relax.. no need to worry about the time to meet etc.. we spent another 4 hours there & only stopped shopping when it started raining heavily... this time round, we took the train from 松山 back to taipei, which is only a stop away...

we din go back to our hostel immediately.. we actually walked against the strong wind & rain, carrying our barang-barang & umbrella just to get the yummy 水煎包 across the street of our hostel.. the wind is really very strong & we had to 'push' our way through so that we can walk forward.... finally we arrived @ our hotel safe & sound..

the guys came back ard 12 plus & after bathing, its MJ time.. haha.. ya, we asked cheng to bring the mini MJ set over.. we played until 5 am in e morning.. by the time i am damn sei already & the typhoon starts to arrive during that time... we can hear the howling of the wind even in our room & we were told not to on the air-con as it might caused explosion.. u can imagine how stuffy it is inside our room.. :(

28th july : 鼎泰丰 & Taipei 101

we woke up in e early afternoon.. by the time, typhoon had already subsided.. the time is just nice for us to go out n shop.. our plan is to go to SOGO & taipei 101..

we went to 鼎泰丰 for our late lunch.. though its a typhoon day, the business there is still very gd.. i duno isit a psychological thing but i just feel that the 小笼包 there taste better.. esp the one with the crab thingy..

we went to washroom b4 we left & i chanced upon 2 very interesting device inside the cubicle.. should have video it... i tot the others would have seen it when they are in the washroom but when i told em about it, they said they din..

we took a cab to taipei 101 & took alot of photos.. i din know that taipei 101 & new york new york are so near to one another.. the place is just like orchard road, all the main shopping centre are along that stretch of road.. i bought alot of hello kitty products.. they are SO cute.. how i wish i can bring everything back..

the name for the restaurant is so ke ai..

the guys left us to shop & went back to the hostel 1st.. we walked to 诚品 but there's like nth much there.. so we took a train to 忠孝复兴 where the biggest Sa-Sa is located.. one of my aim to taiwan is to get their beauty product so i thought Sa-Sa would be the place where i can get the stuffs that i wan but i was totally wrong... there's nth much u can buy there except for their in-house brand & the salesperson there are so pushy.. it really turned me off totally..

we went to 西门町 after that.. most of the shops have closed.. so we just bought some food & made our way back to the hostel..

29th july : 淡水 & 士林夜市

we went to 淡水 to shop for our local products.. it was drizzling the whole day & made shopping in e open quite a hassle.. we settled down @ a dessert shop after reaching 淡水 for a short rest.. the tou huay there taste really nice & traditional..

after getting the local products, we just went back straight to the hostel.. its really hard for us to walk & shop when we need to carry all the stuffs & an umbrella to shelter us from the rain.. din get to go to fishermeh wharf because of the weather.. :(

we rested @ the hostel until 7 plus before going back to 士林夜市 for the food & the famous dessert tat the guys wanted to bring us to the other day.. i also did some last min shopping so that i can fully utilised my remaining NTs...

the guys brought us to the wrong dessert shops.. should have go to the one opposite it... but its ok, the dessert that we had eaten is not bad also.. we shopped until 11 plus b4 going back..

30th july : 龙山寺, 桃园机场 & Home Sweet Home

we woke up quite early cause we need to pack our lugguage & prepare to check-out.. by 10 we are almost done, so we decide to go for our breakfast @ our favourite store nearby b4 coming back to check-out.. we made a fruitless trip cause the place only open at 11.. so we decide to go n get our mask b4 going back for our meal...

we walk to 西门町 to catch the MRT to 龙山寺.. i chanced upon a store selling all sorts of beauty products from jap & taiwan on our way there.. it was den i found ALL the devices that i wanted to get on this trip.. argh~~ why din i find this store earlier?? i cant buy all the stuffs cause i am only left with NT500.. that's so sad....... :(

we are done with our bai bai at 龙山寺 by 2 & went back to the hostel locker to get our lugguage.. went to the bus station where we can take a straight bus to the airport.. felt really 舍不得 on my way there..

we had some food @ starbucks b4 boarding the plane.. on our way there, we walked past the smoking room that looks more like a lounge of a club..

the plane ride is almost 4 hours & we reached singapore airport @ 11.. mummy & daddy had called this morning saying they will be coming to fetch me.. they were already @ the airport eating BK when i reached.. the feeling of seeing your family once you touched down is really great... i really miss em alot...

cheng they all say i am like their OC for the trip cause i am the one who plan most of the itinery, chionging all the time when it comes to shopping & eating & having the most energy at the end of the day.. i am also the one who influence them the most when it comes to shopping.. like the mask, the beauty device to slim down the face & sharpen the nose.. they all bought it together with me under my influence.. hehe..

i hope they really enjoy the trip though its a tiring one for em because of me.. they only get to rest & relax fully on the typhoon day, as for the others, they are all chionging with me.. thx guys for accomodating to all my itinery.. sorry if i really tire u out during the trip.. :) i will never forget this travelling experience with u guys... thx for the wonderful memories..
