Why must you be so fake? Painting a façade over your life. Making everything seem so perfect. Is it so hard to show your true self? Afraid of being vulnerable.
What I want to achieve in my life firstly, is security. I want to feel loved, needed and know that there are people who care for me. It’s because of these things that strives me to keep things going. Although the disappointment is great, I’ll do my best not to expect too much. Under expectation is always better than over expectation. Keep things simple. And lead a happy life.
Day 2
Went to visit Paper Palace today. It was really cool. Everything was made of paper. Structures of the Eiffel Tower, Tokyo Tower, Holland Windmill and many others all made of paper it was really nice.
And the entire room made of paper. Sitting down on cardboard chairs and taking pictures with real life sized cardboard animals.
The best was the restaurant. Everything was made of paper. The chairs, the table, the cup holders, cup, salt and pepper, lights etc. We had a great time there! The food was excellent and ARGGHH DAMN filling!!!!
Proceeded to Yi Tong Jie Market for serious shopping. Walked for more than 4 hours. Didn’t buy a horde of stuffs because we were busy playing arcade. It’s freaking cheap Smelly tofu was EXCELLENT. They cut a small hole in the tofu and placed the sauce inside. *melts* Fried mushroom… ohhh *drools* Costs only $1.50 for a pretty big packet and it’s just delectable.
After that, proceeded to Feng Jia Night Market for UBER UBER SERIOUS SHOPPING!!! I spent more than $100 there so you can imagine the amount of stuffs bought considering that each piece of clothing costs around $8. A drastic change in my wardrobe. It will be filled with all the Taiwan trend. Casting away the old ugly T-shirts from Thailand!
Day 3
Headed down to Nantou. Found a driver to drive us there in a van and act as our tour guide. Taiwanese are REALLY REALLY nice and friendly people!!! They’ll just approach and ask if you need help the moment you look a little lost. And everytime after they help us take a picture they’ll go, “Wow it’s really pretty!” They are just full of compliments and praises with no complaints. I seriously feel Singaporeans should follow after them. It makes the living environment so much better. They are just soooooo nice people. REALLY REALLY NICE!!!
And the uncle driving us around was REALLY NICE!!! He brought cups of tea for us to drink. Treated us to tea. And was really amiable. I haven’t met anyone in Taiwan yet who is bitchy and slutty.
If you enter a shop for a really long time and end up not buying anything despite you troubling them, they’ll still smile brightly at you and say “Thanks for coming!” *Sighs* I don’t mind migrating here. People plays a big part in making your life happier.
Reached Sun Moon Lake and had a really cheap and good meal at Puli. SML scenery is really panoramic. The view was breathtaking and we visited various places there such as the temples. Played divination lots and they were quite accurate. Except mine. Because I forgot to ‘tell’ the ‘lady’ my address??? Also wrote some wishes and blessings on the card and hanging them up.
Ate Mushroom Herbal Egg for like 15cents. It was yummy!!!!
Oh I forgot to comment that the only bad thing about Taiwanese is that they don’t throw the toilet paper they use into the toilet bowl. Instead they dump it in the dustbin to prevent clogging. Which makes it really really gross because the moment you enter the toilet you can smell the remains of urine. Urgh!!
Back to topic. Three crazy people went down to dance with the tribe in front of a crowd because we were all pretty high. We were the only ones singing and clapping and they announced to everyone we were from Singapore. Hoho! How embarrassing!
Oh and that fucking Yakult 500ml is only a mere $1.33 SGD. While Singapore pathetic teeny winy bottle costs 80cents. CAN YOU IMAGINE THE BIG DIFFERENCE?!?!? Yakult is really effective. I was constipating due to the environment and after drinking it I let out a big bomb.
Magi mee for dinner. The drinks here are really good. Packet drinks are so much better than Sweet Talk. Really thick with lots of flavour.
Have to wake up at 4am to see the beautiful Sunrise tomorrow!!!
TAIWAN I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
