Reach back at hotel at about 11pm.
Day 2: Woke up at like 830am!! So early right!? yes! It was early! Then went to Xi mending for breakfast then we went to Kaohsiung! Depart Taipei at like 11am!! haha! Again, we travel by the High speed train to Kaohsiung! It was really cool!! Taking train that travels at the speed of 230km/h! Reach Kaohsiung at about 1230pm! Then We had a very good host in Kaoshiung! She is none other then Rachel's cousin! She treated us to a Hakka restaurant lunch then back to hotel. Oh man!! I really love the hotel in Kaohsiung! It was cool man! Anyway, that's not the main point. Haha.. Then went to a street to shop! Oh! I love that street! Though i dont know what the name of the street! Over at that street, i bought a pair of boots at 100NT convert to Singapore currency, its about $6!!! Wah!! Cannot dont buy!! Haha! Yes! I got a pair! and a few tops! Wohoo!! I really love it man! Then Went to another street. By then, it was already evening le. So at 8pm, we went for dinner. Streamboat dinner!! I think its cool also Cos its each personal pot and its buffet! Haha! Hmmz.. Then at night, we went hotel to rest! That was about 11+ after reaching hotel.
Day 3: Woke up at about 9plus. Cant remember the exact time. Then we went to a few high end shopping malls to take a look at their things and shop around. Then went to take the ferris wheel!!

And she also bought like bags and belts in that 1 shop! I nearly fainted! anyway, That day was also the day when Mr MayingJiu took over the office as a president! HAha! Can you imagine!! Everyone was talking about it! I mean the people there. haha. Yes, and we saw the firework. The cabby told us that they are gonna have 1 hr of fireworks! WE were like!? 1hour! That's so long!! hahaha. Then we went back to hotel at about 10plus to get ready to celebrate Huierl's birthday!! We had to arrange in such a way that she wont know. Haha! Yeah! And the funny thing was poor meiZhen got to delay and drag her time to bathe! And we only let Huierl go in to bathe at 1145pm. haha.. Yes, and the best thing is she is very tired! So after celebrating for her, she received her gifts! And lights off!! That was the 3rd day!

Day 7: Woke up at 9am? Cant remember the exact timing. But around there. We went to get TaiYangBing. The classic of the trip was after getting the taiyangbing, we do not have much money left. But we did not know. haha. After getting on the cab, Weng asked if i still have cash with me. Hesitated for a while. Dig out all i have, and we dont hve enough for the cab fare!! And we were halfway on the road! Faint! Then Weng got to call Gene for help! Haha.. Yes! We were laughing the whole time about it!! It was really duh!! So to realise all of us dont have cash with us. Went to withdraw money! And even lunch we got to look for a restaurant that allow us to use card! Haa! Then went to do some last round of shopping at Ximending!! Yes! And i got a jacket!! Wohoo!!

Today, i did something interesting! haha.. I accompanied val and Lian to my god-parents place for facial. And the good thing about today is that daddy was at home, so i got the benefits of having nice cookies! (if he bakes) haha.. Opps.. Though he was not willing to do at first, but after long persuasion, he finally got down to work to do my fav!! Chocolate cookies! Muahaha.. (like my cousin said, i'm very blessed, cos not everyone will want to get down to do BAKING.) Anyway, yes, we baked! Or rather my goddaddy bake while i see! Hmmz.. And the most interesting thing is that i help to roll the dough!! So cool!! hahah!!
FYI, its my first time doing it! I never cook a proper meal, less not to say baking! haha.. And ya, my godfather was the one who did the dough today!! But but!! we failed!! Sigh!! There goes my cookies!! Guess why faileD?
cos it was too SALTY!! Can you imagine! haha.. And more then that, it was also too oily! Sigh!! And on top of that, it was not totally cook!! argh!! There also goes my first time! hump!! Cant imagine it man! sigh!! And the worst thing is i forgottten to take picture of it! Argh!!
Anyway, after that, went to my aunt's place for dinner, went all the way to kallang then left after half an hour!! Gosh!! Cant believe it! But it was cool to see the whole family gathering! Otherwise it will only be once a year. Which is... New year! ahah.. Yeah!! Alright, shall stop now to sleep!! Sigh.. Tom got to work! or rather later.. so sianz!!
And not to forget, my goddad is going for his in camp training next week!! Argh!!! Dont like that idea!! Sigh!! Gonna be left all by myself for the next 2 weeks!
