I love being in a new place & tasting the food.. but I hate getting there..~~ Like Ryan’s lil’ brother Kane on MTV’s Life of Ryan..

I went to Taipei… I had fun at the theme park… nice rock formation at Yehliu… We tried to skip this part of the tour… I’m glad we didn’t… reminded me of Uluwatu or the other seaside place in Bali where they have the Temple on the other side..~~

I like Karaok’ing (is this even a word?) in our fabulously cool room until 2am… I like the hot tub & taking silly pictures in it… I also like the laid back street of Chiu Fen/ Little Shanghai… I was not comfortable enough to be in the naked only public hotspring.. I saw that the girls were wearing towels in all the Taiwan Series..~~ but no… they were supposed to be naked..~~ Carmen went all the way though..~~

I was in the worlds current tallest building..~~ Taipei IOI… I like walking around in the nite market (Xi Men Ding & FengJia) sampling the food & buying cheap clothes (no trying of course)… I also like the many tunnels in Taipei.. some stretching to minutes.. I was almost claustrophobic just thinking what if we got stuck in one of the long tunnels.. I tried the Stinky Toufu… and it is stinky… u know when they say it won’t stink once u put it in ur mouth…? Not for me…. Coz it went up the nose & lingers in the mouth…~~ my mouth tasted & smelled like I just drank sewer water…~~

I tried the Jacky Chan’s fried chicken… nice… The milky tea + pearls (Big & Small)… the Ice Cream Banana covered with frozen chocolate….~~ And I do like the cooked chilies.. much like the green Thai chilies (the chilies that we have in West M’sia)… they cooked it like how we cooked the white chilies that we have in Sabah., but it wasn’t spicy…~ simple dish… Just add soy sauce and u have an unforgettable dish….~~~ But the soup there…~~ it tasted bland…. Others like it.. but I don’t …

I wasn’t too crazy about the Indoor Miniature Museum… I thought that it was gonna be Outdoor… like the one we (my family - aping) once visited 23years ago in 1986 with the Seven dwarf & castles & dinosaurs+ egg…. But being in the Chiang Kai Shek Museum… that brings back memories…..

Being in a new place, having everything perfectly planned for us from what to eat (nice food).. where to sleep (nice hotel).. where to pee (clean toilets)… where to go & we do travel far… like hours far… in the hills far…that was the perks of being with a tour…. The downside is the time crunch & being taken to places that forced you to buy stuff from them… mind you.. expensive stuff…. There are lots of stuff that they tell u about the history of the place… the culture… but sometimes.. it’s too much info… I feel like I’m in a history class.. where I normally fell asleep… and they asked u not to fall asleep in the tour bus… to listen to them talk…!

Traveling on our own… deciding everything on a whim,.. Like swimming & relaxing in a pool too deep that I need a float (at nite) when all the ‘Guai Lou’ are down and out from baking in the sun in the afternoon… walking by the beach.. checking out toned surfers…~~ & I like surfing… never tried it with my contacts on… but I don’t think that I will like it that much…

I’m no Culture Vulture like the girl on Discovery Channel…. what’s the name of the show.. ‘It Take’s Five’..? or something like that…~~

Anyway…~I just finished watching Gilmore Girls… I’m starting Entourage series.. pity that my computer can’t open it…~~ I had to watched it with the dvd player in the living room…

Gale said she’s watching Weeds..~~ nice she said.. Una’s started Warehouse 13… don’t know what’s her take on that…~~ but Astro’s showing it on Oct 13…. I’m following Reaper Season 2 too.. I wonder when Chuck Season 3 is coming out…~~?

Love that computer geek.. & his geeky buddies...~~

I did a Tarot reading recently… The past was saying I worked hard.. now it’s time for a change… for me to enjoys something that I’d neglected like my personal life..

The present was saying that I have succeeded in trying to make a mark & any relationship that I’m having or trying to have just may be successful… just may be…

The future… I’m not so sure… it was saying that a forty something year old lady who is closed to me is going to have a lot to say about how the relationship is going to go…~~ Who is this forty something lady that might influence the outcome of the relationship…? Do I even know someone THAT old that is closed to me… and I actually will listen to her…? Hm…
