Saturday in Taipei

Want to share my Taipei one day trip with u all! :D

Took train from Hsin Chu to Taipei and then took MRT from Taipei Main station to Ding Xi station all because we want to go the the famous 世界豆漿大王 to eat 油條 and 豆漿! haha..

this is the menu.. haha.. we order 油條, 豆漿, 蛋燒餅 and carrot cake! 蛋燒餅 is the one that looks like roti prata.. its not really nice cos a bit too dry..the 油條, 豆漿 and carrot cake are quite nice...i'll recommend the carrot cake. hee.


then we set off to Dan Shui (淡水) where i bot a lot of goodies to bring back to Singapore! Bought 2 pkts of Tie Dan (鉄蛋) from the original Ah Po Tie Dan (阿婆鉄蛋).

Its actually boiled chicken eggs that were placed under the sun to make it lose its water content. Bought 3 boxes of jelly (Guo Dong) and 2 pkts of Muah Chee and 1 box of v nice cookies.. haha.. a lot ba? carried a big and heavy plastic bag as i walk to Dan Shui MRT station..heavy leh..
I bought very nice earrings from Dan Shui accessories and 6 hand phone accessories. the Hp accessory is the one that will blink when there is light. haha...

The above is a very nice snack call 虾卷, very cheap yet v nice!

After Dan Shui, my senior and I went our own ways.. cos the places we wan to go is different. haha.. so i went to 誠品書店 near Taipei 101 and he went to Taipei 101 and Xi Men Ding. I spent quite some time in the bookshop browsing books. After adding more weight to what i already had i moved on to take the MRT. Shilin.. to eat and shop! :


These are the small stuff that i bought! :) not including the books though..hehe..

Friday Nite

hello hello.. it has been ages since i update my personal blog.. too lazy to do it.. haha often sentences will form in my head as i carry out some activities, then i will think to myself "hmm.. i can write this in my blog." hee.. but in i'm so lazy that even though i on my computer i refuse to blog.. haha.. I'm now in Hsin Chu, Taiwan. hehe.. was here since last mon.. on a job.. now in client's office. nothing to do as yet cos client is helpin me to look for the documents.. so taking a break to blog some stuff :)

Went to Taipei last sat.. had some friction with my senior last friday. i wento buy mister donut while he waited for me at the city square (where he can watch performance). Long queue at Mister Donut, so i waited for quite some time. I was afraid that my senior will be frustrated with waiting..tt's y i ask him if he is okay with waiting for me.. he said fine.. i finally bought my donut after queuing for ten minutes. Was walking towards the square to look for him..but i stopped and browse when i walk pass the shops selling shoes and cute stuff.. so i tink i took an even longer time. then my senior appeared and called me.. i browse for a v little while more before gg to look for him.. then we started walking back.. initially we wanted to buy the fried sweet potato at Cheng Huang Miao. in the end he said he dun wan. I tot that i have my donuts so i dun want hte sqeet potato either. then he started walking very fast. letting me fall behind. a tot he very anxious to go back quickly.. but it turns out that actually its because he is angry. asked him wat what's wrong with him and he did not reply. only when i tried asking him again. he den said "Don't you think you are very rude? walk off without telling me and make me wait. i tot you went back already!"

I was quite pissed off with his reaction. why do u think i'm so untrustworthy that i will walk off without saying anything? I'm not such a person lo! I should have ask him to go back to hotel first if i knew such things will happen. was super downcast and discourage. then when i got back to my hotel room, i on the TV for the first time after 5 days in the hotel.. then saw good news TC channel.. a channel that shows services and sermons. and i joined in the praise and worship.make me felt so much better.. was filling with joy after that... God is indeed a good God! :)
