Summer '10

Finally my summer trip blog is O-P-E-N!!!!! gonna update lots of stuff happening around me...current location is in Taipei, Taiwan. Just landed at around 6.30pm. Taipei is not very much different from Jakarta, apart from everything is in chinese. The airport immigration officer spoke to me in chinese asking about stuff, and with my super-limited chinese ability, we are able to communicate somehow... super LOL moment!

pre-departure photo with the whole team!!

We took bus from the airport to the city centre. It was a long ride. The bus dropped us off way far from our place to stay. Thus we walked for about 30 mins to reach our hotel. We were starving but luckily the hotel (YMCA) is surrounded by a lot of food stalls and restaurants. After dropping our stuff off at our rooms, we head out for a food hunt!

Bought a lot of tidbits before settling on a famous (not sure if it is real but they said it is) mee sua stall. Definitely super yummy mee sua! it's different from those that we can buy in the crispy chicken stall in Singapore! this one has more taste and the oyster does not taste weird/ocean-ish. After that we divided ourselves into two groups, one going to mcdonalds(wth?) and my group went for more street snacking in taipei.

the famous mee sua food chain!

They said bubble tea originated from Taiwan, so we definitely have to try the original!

Oh for those still asking about me meeting the Wonder Girls... yes i did meet the wonder girls on 17th June @ iluma bugis! it was like one of the best days of my life!! so excited that the pictures i took were mostly blur but anyways i got all their signature and SHAKE HANDS WITH ALL OF THEM!!!! also got to talk to yubin and sunye!!! aaahh it was like heaven!!! they are way prettier in real life!!! more photos of the wonder girls meet and greet can go to my facebook account (link on the side!), the better quality is with on my friend's photo album.
