• so i think today has been by far the absolute most laziest day of my entire trip here so far. hahaha i woke at 1:30, went to go eat breakfast/lunch, came back to the dorms, read some more harry potter, fell asleep, went back out to eat dinner and do a little shopping and then come back. haha.  so basically all i did today was eat and sleep.  err.....very productive, yes.

  
  

  now...haha today has also been a milestone of a different sort as well.  i think that today was the day that i ate the most amount of food in one day haha.  lets see

  
  

  1.  9 pieces of chicken nuggest at mcD's. yes, i love chicken nuggets and need to eat them even though i am in taiwan where its known for its great food..haahha
  
  

  2.  some fries at mcD's
  
  

  3.  a hot dog from 7-11

  
  

  4.  a bag of guai guai (err..kinda like chips but not really)

  
  

  5.  a corn dog

  
  

  6.  a big piece of fried chicken-think of the chicken at tapioca express or like old tea house but not cut up into pieces

  
  

  7.  an ice cream sandwich

  
  

  8.  bao bing- like shaved ice with tapioca

  
  

  9.  a phillycheese steak sort of thing

  
  

  uhh...yeah..too much food...but so damn good! hahaha.  but yeah...thats basically all i've been doing lately.  its great...haha this is what summer is all about! hehehe. 

  
  

  what else have i been up to?been clubbing and shopping a lot...but i mean, there is only so much i need to buy or want.  i think later on this week we will be heading out to danshui or kenting and to a couple of hot springs. hehehe.  should be fun, and all accessible through the mrt (metro lines here).  but yeah, been to room 18 on wednesday, plush on friday, and MOS on saturday.  i love being a girl here because you are basically always cover free! hahaa.  didn't have to pay cover at room 18 or at plush, and MOS was only 350 because we got in before 11.  good stuff!!!  prepartying is always good and there are always a 7-11, quan jia, or hite life or whatever just around the corner to any club selling alcoholic drinks (mostly beer and smirnoff) for 1/20th of the bar price at the club. ahahah   good stuff. 

  
  

  somewhat disappointed with the badminton here.  you would think that there would be a bunch of really good people who play here...NOPE.  ahhaa.  went to go play the other day and was quite disappointed.  not many people were really good on the courts...actually, come to think of it, none at all.  blah.  earlier last week, i accidently signed myself up for an upcoming badminton tournament...at first i was just going to forfeit the $100 NT fee and default but seems like i will be participating in it after all even though it is singles...at this rate, i might fend a chance in singles, although i am normally a doubles or mixed player.  we'll see, we'll see.  maybe the real players will be better.  they have to be! ugh.

  
  

  pretty much checked out a lot of taipei so far.  went to shi lin night market, went to xi men ding night market, went to taipei 101, went to warner village, went to sogo!!!  anyhow, here are some photos from taiwan:

  
  

  this is the toilet i was talking about in an earlier entry.  yup, this is where i go to take a crap. hahaha.  oh, and did i mention you have to buy and bring your own toilet paper with you everytime you go??? yes, my dorm bathroom!

  
  

  

  
  

  at warner village:  trace, mar, phoebe, alice, and me

  here is taipei 101, the tallest building in the world.  good food in the bottom floor of the building.  good shopping but its stuff i could never afford..hahaa.  sorry can't flip the picture to be right side up...bleh.
