I know; I have been horrible about updating my life; BUT; yes, I shall start from TODAY;

It was Esther's & MY OFF DAY!
YAY; we shifted things around; and we got the same OFF DAYS for today and tomorrow:D

Went to 五分铺 today; and we really spent like; 5hours there or something. OR SOMETHING. I know we just walked and shopped and walked. But yay; my feet doesnt hurt:D

The very shop that I ate with my family when we came here last December:D Aw, I miss my family so so much~

It was so fun; with no time constraint; with just the both of us:D



ESTHER:D



This guy; from this shop; I LOVE HIS CURLS; his hair is totally gorgeous! And he doesn't look like your typical Taiwanese; he's so Jap! UGH; I was totally freaking out AFTER I took his photo! HAHA! Esther kept on going on; saying that he's so friggin skinny! LOL

(Okay; this picture do him NO justice at all; but he's REALLY good looking; omggggg. Okay. HAHA And he's VERY SHY; aw; )

Esther was totally shocked that I would be FASCINATED with these big; floppy hats; she decided to take PICTURES of me; looking at the pretty hats:D (Which I didn't get
in the end!)





Went over to Raohe Night Market; where there were TONS of food; and we just sat down; and had a great dinner!:D








HER FAVORITE, TAPIOCA BALL-Y THING.



I'm currently putting myself on a healthy diet; so I'm REALLY restricting the types of food which I'm putting in my mouth!

So my exception was this; cutesy Doraemon pancake thing; HAHA not very sure what is it called though;



The train which we missed~



The newer; Taroke which we took:D

We took the train from Songshan Train Station; to Taipei Main Station; so the both of us were really fascinated by the trains! As we haven't been on one before; and we got so confused in the tunnel; not sure where and which train to board!

Here's our cute; punched tickets:D





Decided to have a SHORT; CAM-EO session; and this is MY BLUR face;




And after much cajoling; I got Esther to do her TUMMYACHE face;



COME ON; DOES IT LOOK LIKE SHE'S HAVING TUMMY ACHE?! NO ISNT IT?! LOL




Time check when we reached Taipei Main Stn; 2147:D

Was at Taipei Main Station where we decided to have a bit of Coldstone; BUT; gosh; the QUEUE is insane! I've never seen such a long line at Coldstone before!




I took a picture from a couple of feet away; BUT this guy; (staring back in the picture) saw me; and he was quite pissed that I was taking a picture; WITH NO FLASH THOUGH.

Anyway, it's a free country; I can take whatever picture I want! HAHA



OH! And today; Esther & I went crazy; buying RINGS:D

She got a cutesy elephant one; and another ring with HEARTS on the circumference;




I've got my cutesy; Anna Sui inspired owl; a bow (tribute of my love for BOWS!) And a gorgeous; leopard:D

Okay; that's all I have; we're going to the TAIPEI ZOO tomorrow; and then to Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall tomorrow!
(Yes, we want to do CULTURAL things too! LOL!)


Don't Laugh!

Now playing;
周杰倫;稻香

It's so heartwarming(:

SO; I've been very busy; with work; since my shift is from 3pm to 11pm; I've taken the liberty to wake up really late everyday:D


WELL; so, the one thing which has prompted me to do this post is that;

I've seen my FIRST FRIGGIN RAT.

It's almost as long; as big as my 15'1 inch laptop screen!

OMGGG;
It's gross, sickly tail actually brushed past my SHOE.

YEURK.

OKAY; the last time that I updated was in March 21; which was SO LONG AGO!
I'm in Taipei now; as almost everyone knows; And there're just so many photos which I've snapped; and are ALL uploaded on Facebook!


I really love Taipei; well; other than the shopping and the food; and the people of course!


I'm interning at Sam's Cafe; which is a Western style buffet restaurant and it's a great place to work!

We provided breakfast for the tour groups and it's the breakfast shift that is CRAZY!

Depending on what we do; we have to turn tables at an amazingly fast rate; clear the leftovers ( I love doing this; somehow; my mind just blocks off the ICK factor; and I've taken to using my bare hands to scrap the food off!! HAHA! YES; we're that busy! ) And we have to carry loads of heavy load; and sometimes; my wrist hurts ): BUT; I guess practice makes perfect?(:


Other than that; I'm also assigned to take care of the buffet area; just once! But it's so crazy; BUT FUN! Cos we have to refill the food at the buffet; and the speed which the food clears is just astounding! ESP; sashimi; and the grilled oyster au gratin!


However; I feel that it's not what's in our job scope; that makes the best of our internship experience; but what's NOT REQUIRED.

I stayed up in the kitchen yesterday; with Emily & Ariana; 2 of the waitress; and we helped the kitchen staff; with the slicing of salted eggs and chopping of guava! They may seem so; mundane; but it's not! It required skill! And I had a hard time mastering the chopping of guava; cos there's actually and ANGLE; which you have to cut it! LOL


Basically; I'm enjoying my time here; Esther & Sheila are the best roomies; I can ask for; and we just enjoying picking at each other; be it that we're MESSY; stinky; or plain gluttons; but I'm actually looking forward to the next 5months here!


Although it may get tiring at the restaurant; but; I'm hopeful that I'll learn alot; although sometimes; I may wonder what am I doing; clearing tables so far away here; but; I guess; nothing is ever easy; and everything happens for a reason! SO! I'm really optimistic now:D
