16th

Woke up around 4am in the morning to go to the swimming carnival at Sun Moon Lake. It was only then I knew we were taking some sort of a company bus so everyone on the bus knew each other except us, the two aliens from Singapore. Still, the people really took care of us ^^



The amount of people is insane!! From far you will only see a lot of white thing bobbing on the water haha We took a ferry across to Ita Thao and some of the swimmers waved at us. I cannot swim but I would love to be in there to join them because it looked so fun!

Managed to explore the island a little while waiting for our group of people to reach the shore. Tried rice wine for the first time! Taste a little like champagne if you ask me. Went back of our base (where the souvenirs and food are placed so the swimmers will get their stuff right after coming up the shore) and fell asleep sitting down. haha

After that the bus took us to a few tourist sites.


Ruby, her brother & Choo. This is the 3rd time Ruby's brother is swimming in the lake, which means he started at the age of 9! Very impressive! And notice the tan line across his forehead hahaha 

The bus started to become really noisy after everyone had enough rest. They had a KTV session on the bus! Damn cool but the songs they sang were mostly of their dialect so we could not participate haha But it was so joyful on the bus. People clapped after every song! I don't think you will ever get that in SG

And because of the drop outs from the swim (and thats why we could go), we got the souvenirs too! OMG like I did not even swim but yay Awesome! I can now wear the shirt and pretend like I swam that 3.3km lake.

17th

Woke up in the late morning and their parents took us out for farewell lunch. SO AWESOME RIGHT!

They said that the restaurant is often fully occupied by visitors because their meatballs are freaking good. And it is not a lie. Freaking awesome! Actually every dish is awesome, even the tofu. I do not usually eat tofu unless it is egg tofu but this! I ate like 6 or 7. 

After the meal they took us to the high speed rail and even paid of our tickets :`) How can people be so nice seriously?! From them, I saw true hospitality and it made me want to be that nice to people too...

I'm just kidding HAHA I will never achieve that level but I'll try!

And so Choo & I took the HSR and we tried every possible method to travel? Plane, taxis, buses, bikes, cars, bicycles, bicycle for 4, walk, MRTs, HSR, TRA, boats, ferries. heh Quite an achievement there.

After settling for our hotel we went around Ximending & Shihlin. Relaxing day~

18th

Was craving for pasta so I settled down at a french restaurant call Pizza & Pasta nearby. They were having a set meal promotion at about SGD8 so why not!

The portion is a little small though. Like for the salad I got two pieces of vegetable, one bread stick and a little sauce in a ice cream cone haha But the pasta was satisfying! I love wine with my pasta!

After the meal I walked to the salon next door. Discussed with the stylist and...

I shaved off a side of my hair and dyed my hair greenish grey with purple dip dye. WUT

pictures next time! ^^
