Wednesday 12 December 2012

working too hard...

in my case is rather self inflicted. It's December, it's flight ticket home time, it's boxing day, and all the blimey shopping to be done and rents to pay trolls along.

Nevertheless, December has been quite eventful. Have been working almost 3 weeks continuously and I can see why is that not recommended. So Solihull and Manchester this weekend, Birmingham for boxing day and possibly Nottingham later on, and Bicester village finally!

Seems like my ending to 2012 can never be any pompous!

Been to the cinema for Great Expectation which is quite interesting to begin with. Definitely a yes yes movie to watch :) Go on Charles Dicken fans!

The one poem that sticks to my head like a boogey in the nose is Life's Brief Candle by William Shakespeare since it was in our literature in school.


Tomorrow, and tomorrow and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death
Out out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more; it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.

that past memory..

a scrutinizing deleterious feeling I wish I will never ever experience it again.

Taiwan part 3

and the very last bit on Taiwan...

Alishan
-Walking in the woods never felt so good. Felt like I was Bella but there's no Edward-

The sister's lake

Every tree has its tale - 3 brothers

If you can make out what this resembles - you've reached a higher level :P

This one as well...

Walking down the woods - fresh air, foggy atmosphere

Cold streaming water

Stopped by for some sausage!Not grilled with fire but with hot stones :)

The elephant trunk :) (At least I can make out what this is!)

Sunset xx


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tea leaf plucking the next day

Sun Moon Lake


Went to another minority tribe where they got their own 'king', 'queen', 'princess' and 'prince'.
Very interesting indeed..

Walked around Xi Men Ting at night and doing last minute shopping! :)

貔貅

Army on duty! Can see their sweat dripping =.=

And it was super scorching hot that day!

Braving the sun

Last night in Taiwan :( Having our last final bowl of dessert

Taipei 101 in the background :) Didn't bother to go all the way there



Day of return

Walked around the building where they film several Taiwan variety shows :)







-THE END-


Taiwan part 2

Because we're from Menglembu all the lembu's love us :) xxxx


3rd night in Taiwan, Bear Resort. 
Was really looking forward to this as daddy, Nie and Ben was saying how nice this place was etc etc..

But it just ended up to be really really bad. And boring. Because it's in a rural area, so there's no shops to walk around at night, nothing nothing!

All I can do to entertain myself..

Is to bear-up with them bears for a picture =.=

They had this event at night for tourists at the resort and we all get to write our well wishes on the lantern :)

Lighting them up and...

Ready to go!

Next day....

Again, I can't read so if you can make out where it is...:)

Tuna's tail!

Then it was shopping time :) Maybe more like photo taking time

BABY ELMO <3 p="p">

Spongebob Squarepants!

Favouritism Eeyore 

I tried to blend it but...

Snoopy!

Doraemon :D

Mascot for 2009 Kaohsiung World Games


Waiting for a ferry to go to seafood street?!!

LOVES

Instead I had poop ice-cream @.@

Walked all the way till we ended up at the beach

Went to the night market especially famous for its papaya milk

Taiwan part 1

Day 1
First stop was TaoYuan

At the High Speed Rail Train station ready for Taipei!


Tour guide gave us a task to capture the front of the train...and we DID it!

First was National Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall ( 国立中正纪念堂)

With his head =.=



Then we went up to a hilltop and because I forgot the name of it, I shall just leave it ______.

Cold chicken, mushroom vermicelli and meatballs

Rice served with rib fats and pork



Next was Yehlie Geopark. I was really looking forward to this...
Until it rained so heavy that we had to retreat and didn't get to see the many other :(


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Day 2

The night stay was at Na Lu Wan and apparently that's a greeting itself, meaning 'How are you?' and also 'Good bye'..so start with Na Lu Wan, end with Na Lu Wan :)

Some kind of gate which I don't remember what for but significant enough for us to get to the middle of the road to snap a picture :)








Then we adjourned for lunch at a super unbelievably nice place which reminds me of Perlis and Kedah because of the paddy field :D

Went to a farm area which name I've forgotten as well but you could see it on the back because I couldn't translate :P



Little ponies

Then went to a hotspring in the middle of summer which isn't very pleasant so we didn't step foot in!


To Be Continued.......
