hi i am still aliving and kicking except my blog which has a lot of singapore spiderwebs. i am not lost or disappeared or gotten H1N1(choy!) in taiwan.
today's an offical taiwan public holiday, which is Duan Wu Jie, one of the biggest chinese holiday (except in singapore), and tmr's another holiday coz they wanna make it a consequitive long holiday.
usually weekends we'll travel around taiwan, but it's a super peak period so all the train and ferry tickets, hotels and homestays are fully booked so we decided to stay in kaohsiung for the holidays and i can finally rest a bit and do some tidyings.
our travels:
week 1: explore kaohsiung's night markets, weekend we went kenting and heng chun to do some water sports like snorkelling, banana boat, scenery, and went to visit the cape no.7 house, watching sunsets on the mountain and ate good food.
on cab to Kenting
Kenting scenery
Sunset at Gushan
Kenting Mainstreet
Ready for watersports.
week 2: weeked we went to green island, one of the must-go places in taiwan. the seawater hot spring is one of the 3 seawater hot springs in the world. we soak in the seawater spring, watch the stars and saw many many shooting stars and the milky way, and saw a meteor burning in earth's atmosphere. super nice! and saw the mei-hua-lu, some cherry blossom deer which is native on the island.
and we went snorkelling, which is much better than kenting's, saw Nemo and Dory and many many corals and the big famous golden coral.

week 3: long holiday, which is today, we wanted to go penghu but it is too expensive and inaccessible, but it was also super peak so we decided not to go anywhere else.
planned week 4: 4 days 3 nights at Taipei!
other weeks: Alishan, taidong, hualien, and we'r almost done with all around taiwan!
i super wanna go Alishan coz of the cold weather and mountains! we din go this week coz it's raining there.
currently we'r staying in a hostel out of campus because the international villa is full but it's just 10 minutes walk to school la so it's ok, and more convenient coz we can hang out very late and hungry we can go eat desserts at the row of dessert shops behind us. hahha. well i guess there are pros and cons to staying outside, we'r also like isolated from the rest of the international students so we hardly interact with them.
good roomies never last long for me.
at first we 2 guys were staying in campus, while the girls were staying here. and my roomie's a japanese from uni of san diego exchanging here, and he cleaned up the room for me! Akira is super nice but we were only roomies for 2 days before we decide to move in with the others for more convenience.
and this current roomie which is the other ntu guy.. mmm.. just say i'll be happier and better off without him. nightmore of staying in hostel is to get a bad roomie. or mayb i'm just being too picky.
so far i've spent 2.5 weeks here.. have quite gotten used to the chinese world they live in, except that i still speak like a foreigner. and in school every week we have to write one chinese compo and do a chinese presentation report. bzzzz.
i'll upload all my photoes on facebook tonight (i think). haha. this grp of ppl dun like to take photoes of themselves, they only like to take photoes of non-living things, so most of the photoes are only me and objects. haha. very rare not to find camwhores nowadays leh! and i really miss camwhoring with my friendsssssss. after taking so many photoes i realise i have good foresight for good pictures! some photoes i took are really good postcards standards! yay nice!
ok time to buy bubble tea with grass jelly!
