BACK FROM TAIWAN!
not going to blog everything about the 5D4N but about the individual places.
and not going to upload all the photos here,theres 500+ photos from all our cameras pls.
so here it goes:

SHILIN NIGHT MARKET
happened on the first day,first night.
its seriously a must go place when you go taiwan huh.
plenty of foods, plenty of games, plenty to shop.
鸡排,小笼包,炸牛奶,马铃薯,虾仁煎,盐水鸡,大肠包小肠 are some foods found here.
out of all these, i think the cheese potato is still the nicest.
one potato stuffed with bacon,ham,pineapples,corns covered with lots of cheese
and its only NT60($2+)





















TAIPEI 101

the 2nd highest building in the world.
and pls,its damn difficult to take a picture with it.
cost you NT370 to go up (with our 11B got discount de,LOL!)
took the lift,okay its damn awesome!
37 seconds only to go up from 1st floor to the 88th floor if i'm not wrong.
the view up there wasnt that awesome i thought.
cause the skies were cloudy,misty and we went in the day.
the outdoor observatory place at the 89th floor is a more disappointing thing.
can't really see much but clouds and blow blow wind nia.































































WUFENPU
this is a seriously MUST GO place if you want shopping,shopping and more shopping.
kind of like bugis street but its alot better.
more than 200+ shops together and theres clothes,bags,shoes for both sexes.
spent quite alot here i think.
bought 3 shirts, 2 bermudas, 1 bag.
sorry no photos taken here cause too busy shopping le (:

LEOFOO VILLAGE RESORT

the best theme park i've been to?
btw i've only been to 2 theme parks,the other being ESCAPE,LOL!
its seriously damn fun, rides you totally cannot find in Singapore.
entrance fee is NT890 ($40+) but you can spend the whole day here seriously.
the last time i went ESCAPE, i sat the pirate ship and i vomited like hell.
this time,maybe because i've grown up (haha),i tried all those super freaky rides.
the first one, the 360 degrees turn thingy.
holy moly, the feeling really sucks when the thing just stop at the top.
you're totally falling down,damn scary pls!





















the second one, the free falling machine.
the machine will carry you all the way up to very high and stop there.
and before you can shout, the whole thing just fall down.
it takes about 20 seconds to go up, 4 seconds to come down.
how about it?
definitely not going to jump off the building next time if i want commit suicide (LOL!)




























the third one and the most freakiest one.
called screaming condor or something.
didnt knew what it was cause it was the first ride of the day.
no preview and the entrance to it is damn ulu huh.
the moment it starts, i just feel like jumping off the machine.
the speed is damn fast pls.
from the picture below, theres two tower like thingy.
the machine will just accelerate up one tower and then move backwards to the other in a second?
and the right tower is a curvy one, makes it even more scary pls.
i closed my eyes throughout the thing thinking why am i making myself suffer huh?
this is definitely the worst ride of my life.
after that, my legs went jelly and i feel like puking le.
but overall leofoo village resort is damn fun pls!
really worth the money but getting there from taipei is troublesome and exp.
saw 3 singapore girls there,haha!





















KEELUNG

went on the last night at taiwan.
quite far from taipei also.
the purpose we went there was seafood.
and dang! the seafood there is really awesome i supposed!
all those weird weird stuffs also got.
super big oyster for NT200 (9+)
butter crab for NT200 (9+)
and i didnt know sea urchins are edible till MG ate it (eww!)










































DIN TAI FUNG

must be thinking whats so special about it even though singapore has so many.
the DIN TAI FUNG we went to is the world best i think, won some award.
the service is really good and the food is good.
the xiao long bao is really nice and its cheap pls!
singapore de one basket (6) cost $8-10 if i'm not wrong.
the one in taiwan one basket (10) cost NT190 ($8).
the price is almost the same but the quantity, look!
so nice and cheap we ordered one basket each, 7 baskets in total (:
and theres a xiao long bao inside got taro/red bean fillings, damn nice de!
cannot be found in singapore and i bought 10 back (:






















so thats all for the taiwan trip.
lazy to write anymore le.
it was seriously fun la,first time going overseas with friends.
and with friends known only for 4 months.
we even saw our PT instructors Zheng Jie & Zhi Yong there, LOL!
its the last time i get to spend times together with my platoon mates.
its really damn sad when taking the flight back from taiwan.
and congrats to the whole lots going to OCS and SCS.
you guys really deserve to be in command school (:
fyi, i got into combat medic.
maybe because they see my cca in JC is all about first aid so put me there huh?
i just feel damn sad when i saw the posting result.
to speak the truth, my target was SCS.
i knew it was not possible after failing IPPT especially.
so disappointed that i nearly cried this morning.
and thats the reason why i didn't pick up any call this morning.
sorry DX,HH,CC, haha!
think really a goodbye to all platoon 3 mates le ba (except for KF,same vocation (: )
be it times in PTP,BMT or TAIWAN, its really nice meeting these ppl.
goodbye peeps and good luck in your new units! (:

(the taiwan gang i'll always remember..)
