高雄之旅 - 梦时代购物中心,六合夜市

梦时代 is taiwan's biggest shopping mall. to go there, you have to take the mrt to 凯旋站, and there is a shuttle bus to bring you to the shopping mall. the bus ride is ten minutes. if you choose to walk, it will take you 20 to 30 minutes. the bus come in two colours, baby blue and pink. very hard to miss one. haha.




another special thing about 梦时代 is that it has a hello kitty ferris wheel! we nv sit inside the ferris wheel cos the weather is super hot and there is no air con inside the cabin. btw the ferris wheel looks awesome at night.






if you go 梦时代, i highly recommend you to go to this jap restaurant called 北海道食堂. the seafood ramen really rocks man!!! soup is damn tasty, and the ingredients they use are damn rich and fresh. kc even said that it is the best ramen he has ever tasted in his whole life. haha. and all 3 of us rank that ramen as one of the top 5 food we tasted in this taiwan trip. oh i forgot to mention that the hot plate beef steak that they ate at 瑞丰夜市 is also in their top 5.




next, we went to 六合夜市. the nearest mrt station to 六合夜市 is 美丽岛站. and the 美丽岛站 got a very interesting structure, called the dome of light.




magnificient, isnt it?


we ate 度小月担仔面 at 六合夜市, which is high recommended by travel books. but i ordered too much food and we cant finish all of them. we were quite scared that the entire meal will end up like the newton circus saga but thank goodness it cost us NT700, which is around 35 sing. phew...





ok so that sums up the 高雄之旅. the next few posts will be on 埔里. btw fyi 埔里 is inside 南投县, and 南投县 is inside 台中.

and man u lost to barca 2 nil. sian. damn sian. anyway man u also dun deserve to win, cos in my opinion, barca is truely the better team. man u played like shit, especially in the first half. think some of the players are too nervous. haiz.

高雄之旅 - eating 海之冰

set off to 西子湾站 in the morning. the weather was super hot. 西子湾 has a fishing port and ferry terminal.




and near the ferry terminal there is alot of shops selling the taiwan version of ice kachang. we went to the most famous shop - 海之冰. this shop was featured in the taiwanese food show 食尚玩家.

they have so many different varieties, and can order different sizes. you can order 2 times the original size, or 3, 4, 5, 10 and even 20! so the price automatically multiply according to the size that u ordered.

the first one that we ordered is 冰淇淋水果综合冰. we ordered twice the size.





very fast eat finish, thanks to the super hot weather. you can see how much kc is pespiring by looking at his tshirt.


so we ordered another two different flavours, at the original size.



also very fast finish. haha. eating these ice kachang in super hot weather is really super shiok. its a pity that no one ordered the 20 times size, if not we surely will ask to take picture with them, and the 20 times ice kachang. haha.


saw some nice posters at the 西子湾 station, and took pics with the posters. :P



shit man, now is halftime and barca is leading one nil. damn sian. come on man u!!! fight back!!!

高雄之旅 - 瑞丰夜市

one of the most happening 夜市 in 高雄 - 瑞丰夜市. its just a few minutes walk from 巨蛋站.








noticed this very interesting zone at all the mrt stations:



this zone is for women. if you are super chio and wear until super sexy and going home by mrt at night, and you notice got alot of hungry wolves going to rape you, you can stand inside the zone, cos the zone is under camera surveillance, once anything happen to you, the guys up at the control station will immediately rush down to save you. but if the guys up there want to see free show, then too bad for you.


our hotel is near 市议会站. and the mrt station looks like a ship!



a bit gay, i noe.


our hotel is also near one of 高雄's popular tourist attractions - 爱河.


3 guys posing at 爱河. a bit gay until buay tahan.


and this is our hotel room.


3 guys posing on a bed. we are sitting one a single bed. got another double bed. make a guess. who slept on the single bed? who are the two guys that sleep on the double bed? the winner gets this very nice picture:

now i am going to sleep for a while and wake up at 245 am to watch man u vs barca! hope that man u will win!

first dr09 practise


i think the male cast this year is very strong. got jianwu, liang bin, mike, fen, ah liang, nzj, laval and lastly me. if got two more guys will be a perfect 10. so, mr ang hw, are u considering to join us?

from changi airport to kaoshiung

yoz my dear readers! got miss me?

i am now blogging from taipei, east dragon hotel, at ximending. each hotel room got free wireless service! how cool is that? i am now using zhenhong's laptop. haha.

ok let me first blog about the stuff that happened before the taiwan trip. initially we are supposed to take the 6 pm flight on 19th may, from changi airport to kaoshiung. but then during the outdoor camp, i received a call from the tour agency, saying that china airlines has cancelled the kaoshiung flight!

so china airlines is giving us a compensation. they will let us take the flight to taipei which is 810 am at changi airport. when we reach taipei, they give us money to take the high speed train to kaoshiung. i think this is so much better, because we will have half a day more to tour kaoshiung.

all right let's go back to the start of the trip. so we met at changi airport at 615 am. kc and i happened to have the same natural project top, so we ganged up together to wear that top to stun zhenhong. hahahaha. it was really a funny sight.




once we reach taipei airport, we took a bus to taoyuan high speed train station. i went to buy our train tickets while the other two went to prepare to eat lunch, which is.... cup noodles. taiwan cup noodles really rock man! is very nice and also very filling.




the pics taken when we were on the train. also have pics of the toilet. and the quite ok-looking waitress that serve lunch boxes, and the lunch box cost about 6 bucks.








ok i am getting tired. tomorrow i going to alot of places. bye everyone! i will try to blog as often as i can! :)

p.s. darling i miss u.

monday post (last post before going taiwan)

i talked to the doctor, and she is doing the surgery on my mum's left eye tomorrow at sgh. hope my mum's surgery will turn out fine.

this morning went back to my contract sch to return the outdoor tents that i borrowed. btw one of the connecting rods was spoilt during the camp. sian. so i have to either buy a new rod for my colleague, or buy the whole tent. :(

went to city hall to meet darling. i have not seen her for the past one week, and after tomorrow, i will not see her for another one week. and i have been seeing kc and zh more than darling during this two weeks. -.-'''

we went to watch angels and demons! very nice! i read the book before, so can understand the movie. those who nv read the book and go to watch may find it a bit cheem. anyway its really a very good movie, and it follows most of the story line, not like the harry potter movie series, which miss out alot of details compared to the actual story book.

after the movie we had ice-cream at this very interesting shop at citylink.


(darling just cut her hair. chio rite?)

darling i will miss you alot. take care of yourself ok?

and to my mum, recuperate well after your surgery. i love you mum.
