Welcome to Taiwan!
The moment I stepped into Taiwan airport, and interacted with the first Taiwanese whom was the custom officer there, I started to like Taiwan =)
Really.
Started from the custom officer, visitor information counter staff, bus driver to Taipei Main Station, to the hostel guy...
They are so welcoming and friendly.
In terms of politeness and friendliness, even Hong Kong is incomparable.
Everywhere we go, the staff would greet us 'huan ying guan~ ling'welcome and 'xie xie guan~ ling'thanks for coming!
Ming and I are addicted to their 'singing' greetings.
And we are never pressed to purchase from them....
I told ming the moment we board the airport bus, 'I am beginning to love Taiwan' =)
CF mentioned before Taiwan is not as city-like as shown in dramas...
True enough, I'm kinda surprised that Taipei is packed with scooters population than cars, the roads and buildings are almost similar to some areas in china.
But overall it was a lovely country with nice ppl and places to go.
I love the night markets in Taipei--> everynight we would visit a different night market...
I love the street foods in the night markets--> everything we ate are nice. I love shave ice!
I love shopping at WuFenPu--> warehouse price, many varieties and pricing is definitely cheaper than sg. but one thing for sure is I prefer shopping @ Bangkok Chatuchak Market, which is 4 to 5 times larger and much cheaper than WuFenPu. serious!
I love the ppl there! (except a few black goats whom we met)
I love watching 100 television channels every night in the hostel.--> even after 2am.
And I love their 7-11 instand food(bian dan)! They r really power la!
My verdict-->
Taiwan is a lovely place and easily accessible for 1st- timer.
DIY travel is definitely possible, we did it =)
Taiwan is some what similar to Hong Kong in terms of supreme food, breathtaking sceneries (mountains, night lights and crowded)
Shopping in Hong Kong is slightly more expensive than Taiwan, but the trends in Hong Kong are nicer and faster.
Somehow, I still prefer HongKong than Taiwan -_-
Took more than 700 plus photos.... WOW.
All uploaded into facebook- 4 albums total -_-'''
Will blog in details with pictures once blogger allows me to =)
WE will definitely re-visit Taiwan few yrs later =)
Next year, vietnam? haha.

Counting down to 3 days more
so much obstacles before our taiwan trip.
- Typhoon Marokat in Taiwan destructed central and eastern Taiwan badly. And we had to cancel our trip to sun moon lake(a very beautiful place to go) & kaoshiung. 8 days straight in Taipei solely... sigh~
ANd praying hard there's no more typhoon next week.
- Ming's recuurent dislocation of his right shoulder for the 2nd time. sigh.
- I'm now with flu and sore throat. Sister Leong said I can't travel overseas if I have yet to recover by then.(lucky is just mild URTI. not H1N1 -_-)

Kelly's 22nd Birthday (A belated post)
Exactly one month ago was Kelly's 22nd birthday...
And we took many photos on that day....
Facebook, emails flooded.
I requested everyone to wear black dress (gals),
and JJ to wear black shirt.
The theme was The black affairs
Everyone was compliant... except SHARON!
failed, I said.
Congrats to Evon & JJ whom qualify the dress code (fully black indeed). lol
While waiting for seats at Din Tai Fung.
Camwhoring outside the restaurants which attracted stares...
Our yummilicious food served
And dessert @ Ben n Jerry.
Plus the happy pills for Kelly...
Pop one pill every day and u will be happy for a year.
Good ritE?
Kelly, there r total 11 capsules...
So u will be promised 11 yrs of happiness ... =)

WAs testing the system for the past 2 weeks...
and so glad to see the 'upload image' function is back tonight!
Is that my com or blogger prob? nah...
However I am going to sleep soon..
Will upload some new photos coming few days =)
Last but not least...
'die die also wan to post picture after 2 long weeks'.

How much can this surgical mask protect us from H1N1?
And I am already exposed to H1N1 patients in my ward....
No fever, no URTI symptoms yet... and NO pls.
Finally submitted my advanced diploma application few days back...
Wondering if I would be accepted though I have no surgical field experience, and my outstanding 12 mcs last year.
shit
But to be optimistic, I got ZERO mc this yr =) *so proud of myself*
WEll...
But if my application is rejected, is okay...
I will try for next yr Jan intake again =)
