Day One (SIN - TPE):

Flight 3K521 to Taoyuan International Airport. Got all geared up to proceed to the airport by... MRT. haha. I was late and my mum told me there won't be enough space on the train for us to sit. So pw and I detoured to boon lay before our journey to the east. ps, jt and amanda were so nice and woke up early in the morning to send us off. haha. Filming for '改版' vcd started.

I swear off budget airlines for flights of more than 2 hours. It was SO cramped! Luckily I had cards to pass time. Tsk tsk. Had to endure 4.5 hours before finally reaching taiwan. SQ rocks. So anyway, we took a bus to taipei main station before hopping onto a taxi to our hotel. Chairmeh, however, being the sleepy king, decided to leave his dear phone on the bus and we had to chase the bus throughout ximending. Goodie. haha.

We stayed at 玉园庄. It was supposed to be a motel but it's really not bad. Feels like home. Hahaha. After arriving (rather late) at the hotel, we pia-ed to shilin for some quick shopping where chairmeh happily spent NT1000 on peanut candy. I bought my cap-companion too! After shilin was liaoning where there was ABSOLUTELY nothing, so we went to banqiao. I can't remember much about banqiao - I wonder why. haha. In the wee hours in the morning, we finally got a chance to 'enjoy' our room.


Day TWO (TPE-GaoXiong-Taizhong-TPE):


I didn't sleep cos I was afraid I wouldn't be able to wake up in time for the speed train down to GaoXiong. Supposed to meet at 530am but ended up leaving at 6am, catching the MRT to taipei main station. My first time on the MRT in Taiwan! Haha. And of course first time on the speed train in Taiwan. It's supposed to be like the bullet train in Japan but I didn't exactly get to experience Taiwan's one cos I was basically knocked out and slept solid for around 2 hours. haha. A taxi ride later and we reached 汉神百货 - the first autograph session of the day. We were number 71! As in our first number was 71 (me). haha. We couldn't find a proper breakfast venue and ended up buying from 7-11 where I had strawberry 铜锣烧. 7-11 is endorsed by SHE and Farenheit! So cool right!! Not like our very own ta*fik.
