I heard you cried last night.
mood like a pendulum.
hates to see dust.
shut up if you think you're cute.
pick up a book, moron!

PART 4 of my 2-week break in Taiwan, Taichung




After the coach ride, we managed to find our way to the hostel. The hostel is so fucking clean!!! And the best part is that the toilet has two shower so we could bathe at the same time! AWESOME!!! But it's a great pity that the location of the hostel isnt ideal. We spent so much money on cab so we had no choice but to shorten our stay in Taichung to 3 days 2 nights. By the way, the sun in Taichung was the worst throughout our trip. I was perspiring like how I do in Singapore! OH GOD!



While waiting for the bus, which comes every half hour, we got really frustrated with the weather, the location of the hostel and the weather. ARGH!



Taken outside one of the coolest museums ever, the Taichung Railway Museum. There are about 4 or 5 of such in Taiwan. I love that place. Spice girls, that's the place I got your presents.



The following morning was spent waiting for the bus again. I got reminded of Jalan Kayu somehow. The very few buses, the surrounding and the houses.



The inside of a typical Taiwan bus. Doesnt it look like those in Korea and Japan? These Taiwanese...no originality at all.



MY FAV STYLE OF STEAMBOAT! My first Korean Steamboat. I lovelovelovelovelovelove it. The soup is darn sweet and the veggie was raw and sweet. AISH! Can someone find this for me in Singapore? Cannot be too expensive okay?



Pardon my hair. It's very very very messy. Took pictures with the Dian Ti Xiao Jie, loosely translated as Miss Elevator. Their job to be is really meaningless and a waste of time. Oh let me just tell you this picture didnt come easy. Miss Elevator A, the one on the right, told me a great deal of how the company doesnt allow them to be photographed and it's against the policy of people to take pictures with them in their uniform as they do want have their rivals to copy their uniform and so on. She spent a good 5 minutes saying no to be indirectly but at the end of it, she said it's okay since I am a tourist. WHAT THE FUCK!! ASS! So to protect her and her company, I shant mention the name of the biggest and most posh shopping mall in Taichung City.



Good food once again! Mango ice!!!! :) :) :) Mangolicious!
Wasnt ichigo season so no ichigo ice.





Above two pictures were taken at the National Arts Museum which was a HUGE PLACE!!! It's like the size of NYP Business, Engineering and Health Science combined! The library was a lovely place! HAHAHA! I kinda sneaked into it. I aruged with my sister in the morning so when we arrived there we just walk on our way. Then I think she got hungry or wanted to leave so she called me to ask my whereabouts. About ten minutes later, she called to ask me to come out because she couldnt get it but I didnt understand her. I walked in so why couldnt she! Whatever. I did as she said and later she explained to me that only the locals were allowed in. AHAHAHA!!! The librarians probably thought I was a local. Told ya, I adapt well.

That's about it. We went to the most famous night market in Taichung named Feng Chia which really wasnt worth the time. Another day-night market called the Yi Zhong Jie was ten times better. AHAHHA! I liked Taichung the best out of all the cities we went but unfortunately the hostel was really too far from every where and the public buses have really strange and inconvenience operation hours. I like how Taichung is very laid back but doing well economically. It's been erm...4 weeks since I came home, so I am lazy to type more. After the final part of my Taiwan trip which will cover Taipei again, I will be doing up a top 10 places to visit when you're in Taiwan based on my own experience. HAHAHA. So to those who are prepping for Taiwan, hold on. :)

CALL ME KING AGAIN!!! My GM is only coming back tonight so he will only report to the office tomorrow morning. GREATNESS!!
