:: Back From Taiwan ::
It's not really a fun place to be.. That's the truth!
Country - Well.. it's quite a nice place I guess..The Country..
Most Memorable Place - Country Side:- The highway thru the mountains.. and tunnelssss.. and bridges.. and crazy-windy-hilly-tight-roads next to a 100 feet ravine! which overlooks the sea.
- City:- The Taipei 101 Tower.. It's taller than our Petronas Twin Towers, the Night Market (Pasar Malam type) and the.. well.. tat's all i guess.. Ahh..! the 'Sirih girls'.. more stories will follow in next blog..
Weather - Love the weather there.. It's winter now.. tat's the reason I guess..
Atmosphere - Country Side:- Well.. almost the whole country is filled with paddy fields.. seriously!
- City:- Congested with Cars, People and not to mention Scooters.. Millions of them (Scooters i mean)..
People - Well.. Friendly enough I think.. most of them didn't know 'we' chinese in Malaysia can speaka-tha-Mandarin
They were very surprised when we could actually speaka-tha-Mandarin. And one more thingy.. they can't speaka tha England for nuts..
- Them ladies:- Most of them are fair.. really fair.. so it makes them looks abit.. well.. nicer to look at.. but i realised something, those that are actually really pretty ones are from other tour busses.. hmmm.. and there are LOTS of them who wear glasses.. especially those black-framed-small-square-type..
Entertainment - The telly:- they have millions of channel.. and more than 3/4 of that are talkshows.. they just yack yack yack yack all day.. Ah.. not forgetting.. they have ONE very interesting channel.. Ahem.. u know.. interesting!!..
- The Shopping Malls:- Didn't go shopping much.. the whole 7 days trip.. I've only been to ONE BLOODY shopping centre.. it's called Taipei 101.. yes it's nice.. it's just like KLCC
- The Clubs:- What clubs? Welll.. I didn't manage to stop by any.. and the worst thing is I found MOS.. Ministry of Sound Taipei (on the map) .. the day AFTER I left Taipei.. on the way to Tai-Chong.. Well.. the most happening' thingy to them wasn't Club.. it was Karaoke.. and they REALLY dressed up for it!.. places called Partybox.. it's around town..
Food - Dun remind me pls.. Sucky Food in most restaurant our tour-guide chooses.. our normal dishes includes.. two veges (cabbage & some fried onion shit), a plate of lard (its actually huge chunks of pork), Sotong with vege, Fried eggs & a bowl of dunno-wat-you-call-it-soup. Well... most lunches and dinners will have at least 8 type of dishes..
Actually I'd enjoy those food that I found in their Pasar Malam even more than those I ate in their restaurants.. well.. that's the way it is when you follow the tour.
Allritey.. it's damn bloody long blog for now.. I'll rant again when i have the time.. now i have to return to my regular daily life as I see's it.. i dun think i'd say this but.. I Love Malaysia..
