My very first time to Taiwan! After watching so many of Taiwan variety shows, of traveling, food.. i am finally on the way to visit this nice country..!
It was great fun, even though we were there 8 days, there were still so much to be seen and eaten.. should be going again, soon. (after saving up some more $$, haha!)
With much excitement, we boarded the plane..!
After about 5hours, we reach Tao Yuan airport.. and as we make our way to the hotel, we took lunch on their Taiwan High Speed Rail.. traveling at about 320km per hour (wow!)
It was about an hour journey to the destination.
After checking in, we walked around the area and took the Hello Kitty & friends flyer. Each capsule was of different cartoon theme.. cuteness!
We visited the nearby night market, they have so much night markets to visit at each area of the country!
It was about 10+pm already, but the place was still crowded. (in Singapore, the shopping centres are already closed at this time.Zzz..)
The day 2, we visited 垦丁, 鹅鸞鼻, there is a very nice lighthouse, and nice scenery.
Day 3 was 台中, and we visited 逢甲夜市 for shopping and more food..
And came across a "成龙鸡排" ... LOL
We visited 阿嘉的家,one of the place which was used to make the movie: 海角七號.
Day 4, we went to 清境, 青青草原..
We saw sheep, and beautiful horses..
Able to guess what these are? =P
Next few days we travelled to 台北 and was there till the day 8!
Of course we visited the Taipei 101 building..
=)
The 渔人码头 or the The Fisherman´s Wharf. Watching the sun setting, and couples sitting around with the lady's head resting on the guy's shoulder. A great place for dating! =)
We went to 野柳地質公園, to see interesting rocks..
十分 to write our wishes and seeing our 天燈 flies up into the sky.
The always crowded 西門町..
In the end, i did not bump into Jacky Wu, only a poster. LOL
As i wrote in the beginning, there were still so much to be seen and eaten.. this post is just a simple sammary of the places, i have been to. If you have the chance, do visit Taiwan, and share your experience too! =)

We F***ing did it..!
Nanyang Technological University's (NTU) Ms Trinetta Chong, 23, gave a speech to inspire and congratulate her schoolmates during the school's convocation ceremony held on campus.
A speech that came out of the newspaper...
She used the word F*** !
As from Dictionary.com, it really means a not so good wording to use.
But anyway, some words got many meanings too..
For example the word: Gay
It can actually mean carefree and merry too.
The western country was quite open to using this word actually.. almost every sentence, the F word can be present..
Same goes to songs too..!
* I am posting the "Clean" version of the song. If you interested and of legal age, go ahead and find the dirty versions, ok? =)
She could be too happy that she forgotten it was quite a serious ceremony going on.. forgive her? Or just let time be the judge.. Forget..? =)

The Tweet Meet 2011
Hi all, im back from Taiwan, after a week holiday there!
There's just so much to see and eat, so little time.
Shall write about the trip (Soon..) Hehe.. =)
Anyway, the day after i touched down, i was involved in the Tweet Meet event by Infocomm Accessibility Centre (IAC), whereby volunteers are being tasked to deliver 40 netbooks to the homes of people with disabilities and connect them to the Tweet Meet online community.
The netbook..
I was being partnered by the cute and cheerful Ryna (http://www.rynaque.com/), who guided me along of what to do, as i was overseas during the week.
Bacially, we need to deliver the netbooks to over the their homes, and then help them to set up some social media platforms, like Twitter, Facebook and Skype.
Ryna, was interacting and making friends with them.. while i help to do the setting up..
After which, we introduced them to Twitter, and Facebook. The fun part was the Skype programme, whereby we called in to an IAC member, as it was also the first time i use skype to do a video call! HAHA! We learn together..! =)
A screen shot of us!
Although the tiredness and lack of sleep, i am still very happy to see the big smile from the two of them..
It was a fulfilling experience, and hope they are happy with the new netbook, and can make more friends through the social media platforms we introduced. =)
The mum and the brothers were very nice and made us souvenirs!
How sweet? =)

Football: Singapore to return to Malaysia Cup!
Goal Goal Goal.. Ole Ole Ole~
Was reading the news article from Channel News Asia: Football: Singapore to return to Malaysia Cup from 2012!
Will we have a chance to hold the Malaysia Cup like what Fandi Ahmad did, many years ago? ?
Suddenly all the familiar names of :
Abbas Saad, Fandi Ahmad, Lim Tong Hai (the super tall defender!!), David Lee(Our goalie..!), Mohd Rafi Ali, Nazri Nasir, Malek Awab, Steven Tan (small in size, but fast!) flashes across my mind!
Introducing, The Singapore Dream Team Song.. dated all the way in 1993.
The many great goals we scored..
Can we have this kind of passion/enthusiasm to our Singapore Soccer, back?
Ole Ole Ole Ole~
