Hello again! Since Im technically trapped at home with nothing to do but gaining fats and being a total couch potato, I've decided to update about my second day of Taiwan trip as well. And again, I might do some editing cause you have NO IDEA how confusing the photos are.
So we woke up at 6am, get brushed, ate breakfast, and headed off to the train station in TaoYuan.
Our bus!
We we re given about 20minutes to walk around in the train station while the tourguide bought tickets for us.
In the train station.
We took many pictures with the TaoYuan sign cause we were all damn bored while waiting for the train to arrive.
Damn nice right the train?? And it's not just ANY train. It's a train that goes about 300km/h you know. Damn super fast but cant really feel anything in the train. It feels like plane ride.=x
After reaching TaiPei, we then meet up with the bus driver who had to literally chase the 300km/h train as fast as possible LOL.
Outside TaiPei train station.
Hello mummy! *waves*
Hello jiejie! *waves*
Next destination : 自由广场 at 台北中正纪念馆 (TaiPei Democracy Memorial Hall)
That's the name of the venue if Im not mistaken. But Im pretty sure Im mistaken LOL!
It was 11celcius and I was wearing a long sleeve shirt and jacket only!
See?? Semua orang pakai baju tebal tebal man.
A concert stage nearby.
I SO wanna go up there and SS, pretending that Im having my own concert HAHA. But there're people around plus the floor was freaking wet since it was drizzling.
Grouppie without tourguide.
See the HUGE statue behind? It's damn big lahh actually LOL.
The point of going there is to take picture only wtf. Super pointless LOL.
And next, we continued our journey and reached 九份, ChiuFen (which means nine sets. Long story bout the name hah.) after about 1hour and 15minutes of bus ride. There, we went to the 九份旧街,ChiuFen Old Street to shop for local food and to have our lunch.
This convenient store here right beside the street, according to my tourguide, is the convenient store with most income per month in the whole Taiwan, which is about 1 thousand million per month. Ratio of Taiwan dollar to RM is 9:1. So do the math =D
Went to a native shop (If that's the correct word) and bought LOADDDDS of stuff. We then went into a small restaurant and had beef noodles along with the very famous yam ball dessert.
YUMMY!
And after that, we were given time to walk around and try out whatever food that we'd like to.
I've been hearing great compliments of the 臭豆腐(smelly toufu) in Taiwan for a long time. You know when you watch those dramas and they seem to be enjoy the toufu so much. I once watched a movie and the actors inside said that the toufu tastes better than shark's fin wtf. Obviously it's freaking exagerrating. However, I've decided to give it a try.=)
Looks delicious?? Well you know what?? NOT. AT. ALL.
It tasted okay at first. But first of all, I hate tofu very much. Secondly, sis tried it and said it tastes/smells like toilet. Like exactly the same smell. It's called smelly toufu anyway. But when you stop eating already right, the smell and taste continue to linger around your toungue and taste buds and.. WTF. Bloody disgusting. So we ended up throwing away half of the toufu.
Cartoon shaped honey candies!
Dad seems to be enjoying the smelly toufu pretty much.
He likes it wtf!
He likes it wtf!
Fishball soup.
I have no idea why the fishball soup is so famous in Taiwan. The fishballs are not yummy at all. And they mix alot of flour in them so they're not bouncy AT ALL. It's like chewing on fish-tasted-dough. Unlike fishballs in Malaysia which are so freaking bouncy and.. bouncy.
We gt out and waited for the rest while enjoying the not-so-yummy fishball soup. But because of the freezing weather, we practically fought for it hah.
Same pose in 3 pictures straight wtf. How pathetic.
So at around 2.50pm, we reached our next destination, 南天宫妈祖庙, MatZu Temple or whatsoever, with our bloated tummies.

It has got a 100% jade-made statue and gold-made one. Sorry lahh my English is super teruk lahh wtf.
Fantastic view of a harbour beside the temple.
Count the dragons! lol wtf.
After we got down, mum and I went to a stall nearby to get some hotdog while waiting for the others. And oh my, their hotdogs are all made of pork and they're simply MUCH more delicious than chicken meat ones. Especially on such a cold day.
Also, their sweetcorn is simply juicy and delicious! I ate a whole jagung myself hah.
Ice cream peanut roll wtf.
Imagine ice cream in the popiah roll.
Imagine ice cream in the popiah roll.
Oh and their keropok is damn nice! Roast beef flavoured one wtf. Really got the taste of roast beef man! Super yummy.=)
So another 3hour journey to the Ami Aboriginal Cultural Village to watch the dance/singing performances presented by the Ami people. And along the way, a bus broke down halfway through the mountain road and surprisingly, the tour in it is from Malaysia too! And also from the same travelling agency as us! Such coincidence huh. Since assistance could only arrive 2hours later and our bus had more than enough seats, we all agreed to let them tumpang our bus to get downhill. See lahh we're all so generous xD. When we got downhill, some of us were desperate for toilet but public toilets/gas stations were nowhere to be seen. So, the tourguide asked permission from a lady to use her dorm toilet and she agreed. Hence, about 40 girls or so queued and used the toilet one by one. And the lady was kind and generous! She kept asking us where we're from, welcoming us to Taiwan and telling us about her stuff. After we thank her politely, she gave some of us something like Mamee Monsters in Taiwan! She said we can keep warm if we eat cause got heat energy and blablabla. So good right???
They call it 太空面haha. Means space mee LOL.
Taste exactly like Mamee Monster anyway hah.
Taste exactly like Mamee Monster anyway hah.
Parents got tired.
Chum chum. Bored in the bus.
Dinner at 7.10pm
Got 灵芝 soup man hah!
Got 灵芝 soup man hah!
After dinner, we went and watch the performances! And omg I was SO COLD that I literally shivered throughout the WHOLE night. Can obviously see my whole body shaking lor wtf.
The hall.
The guys are freaking cute omggg!! Sisters and I admire two of them HAHA. Seriously damn cute. And then guess what? They invited the audience to go out and dance along with them!!! I didnt want at first. Seriously. But parents kept forcing us in a strict way and say we should be sporting and yada yada yada. My parents dislike shy shy people who dont dare to do this or do that or like think alot before doing something and whatsoever. So yeah elder sis and I were seriously forced to go out man. Damn no face wtf.
And you know what?? My elder sis' partner is the guy I admire lohhhhh!!! My partner was damn cool he didnt even look at me. So boring right ughh. Kesian me lorr x(
As you can see, the guys were all half-naked!!! So hot!xD
Those were actually rice that they're tossing.
It's the Amei culture that the groom must carry the bride and walk one round lol.
And so, they picked an uncle from the crowd to act as the groom and he had to carry the bride walk one round plus getting whacked by an old lady. On the ass. Real hard haha!
And later on, they once again invite the audience to join in their group dance. And once again, all three of us were forced by our parents wtf. I dont see them going out being sporting also!!!
But but this time, I get to hold hands with the cute guy I admire!!!!!! xDxDxD
Wendy, new friend made from the other tour which their bus spoiled half way.
Tadaaa!
Yupp it's the right side one. At first when I went to take picture with him, my sis wanted to join along but I pushed her away for like 3 times haha. So freaking tak tau malu kan. But who cares??? I want a PERSONAL photo with them!!!xD
There, he looks much much cuter here! Damn cute lahh looks like LeeHom right??? I held his hand and he put on the band thingy on my head woohoo!!=D
And the thing up there is actually a flat stone thing with the picture on it. Which costs like 400Taiwan dollar wtf freaking expensive.
So after that, we went back to SinHotel. And you know every night right, my dad would "observe" both his and my room and he ALWAYS changes room with us cause he claims that our room is better wtf. But most of the times, he picked the wrong one cause his is always better but he changed with us HAHA. In your FACE!!xD
Whoo so cool right??? Got spa summore.
So nice right?? But dad decided to change with us and his room is so lau char pekkk! The shower machine thing is like normal shower one lor. Whenever we disagree he'll say he's the one who paid for this trip and he deserves a better place to get some rest wtf. So unfair man hmphhh!
See the thing Im holding? It's the stone thing haha. Im keeping it SAFELY in my wardrobe. Along with the head band! =D
So we slept at around 11.40pm and there goes my Day2 in Taiwan! Sorry if there's any grammar mistakes or whatsoever LOL. And I realize I use alot of chinese/cantonese words in my posts! How come???LOL
More interesting things to go woohoo! Stay tuned baybehh!=D
