It was reported on Tw news that certain parts of country was experiencing heavy rain and flooding due to the typhoon..
It looks pretty badly affected especially in a village in Hualien where water levels were so high that the villagers had to be evacuated and Kenting and some other parts of Southern Tw. hmm.. not too sure of the details though. Hopefully everyone there would be safe and sound. =)
I am missing Hualien and Kenting already.. Hope that I can go back there again soon!!
However, on a LIGHTER note,
I've graduated OFFICIALLY~ YIPEE!!!!
We've all graduated!!! yeah~~
shall upload pics of my convocation soon!
a sneak preview

so quickly..
one of my good friend, Ah Xue, is now on the plane bound to Sydney, for further studies. Starting a brand new chapter of her life in Aussie!!!! hoho..
so cool to study overseas in my opinion. feeling pretty excited for her too! hoho..
for the time being, our JC clique would be down to 6 from 7 ppl. i guess it will feel abit weird though.
hope that everything would go smooth-sailing during her stay in Aussie!! and hopefully we can all go visit you next year!! yeah!!

Post title : Tw grad trip Day 5 (Kaohsiung)
♥ You'll never know the real me.
Day's event: Qijin Seafood Street & shopping @ Sinkujiang
the day started pretty much later hoho.. yeah!! (meaning everyone got to sleep-in abit more). but we had to wake up early in the morning just for complimentary breakfast buffet downstairs. the food being served was not too bad~
lunch was at Qijin Seafood street recommended by Xue. It was about 45mins (by bus and ferry) away from our hotel. This seafood street is actually on another small island i reckon. not too sure though. haha
the journey to the seafood street:
by bus to Gushan Ferry Pier
then by ferry to small island..
and motorists get to travel across by driving their motorcycles to the lower deck of the ferry while walking passengers made their way up to the upper deck.
we were much clueless on how to get to that place when we reached the island. haha.. apparently, you can rent a scooter or bike to travel around. good way of exploring the place at your own leisure time and pace.
LUCKILY.. we didnt attempt this!! the guy in charge said it would only take 20-30 mins to cycle there. hmm.. since it was a bloody hot day, we decided on Cabbie! lol
okie.. it was really a good choice cos it was a pretty good distance away from the pier. haha! but we didnt had time to walk around some of the tourist attractions like the windmill thingy and the beach there.
all the good-looking delicious dishes are only at NT100 each!!!!! its darn cheap yeay!!!! amount to less than 5bucks each.
so each of us ordered a dish each which added to 9 dishes and we had a imperial-banquet styled lunch. hoho.. it was a pretty full-filling lunch. =)
and the shop owners were very friendly to us. They helped us to phone for cab, gave us free tibits too!!
and as the day grew hotter, we decided to have some COOLING fruit juices.
i love my honeydew juice and the watermelon juices!! truly REFRESHING
and it was then followed by shopping @ Sinkujiang till night falls. yipee!
apparently, this place grew energetic by the time ticks to dawn. that was when more shops were opened for businesss too. haha.. abit diaozx lah cos we were there quite early in the afternoon.
and the "Steals" of the day!! with a beaming rong hoho.
and it was in Kaohsiung where i bought my winnie the pooh petite figurines too!!! oh my.. if you are a big fan of these characters and of xiao ding dang, you'll just be dazed by the amount of cutie stuff they have!!
we were all starving after a day's of shopping and slacking.
when humans are hungry, this is what they would do... ->stupid acts hah!!
and i got a second serving of rice after that. i was HUNGRY.
some crazy acts on the train back to hotel:
and uncles washing clothes, playing pokers:
note: there's even large and small sizes washing machines being catered. good!
that's all for the night folks~

Post title : Tw grad trip Day 4 (Hualien -> Kaohsiung)
♥ You'll never know the real me.
Oops.. sorry for the long delay..
Let's continue with Day 4 then.
event: Shuo xi aka River trekking
oh well.. initally i went with a slightly heavy heart. hahazx.. that's becuase i have a phobia of heights.
we had to wake up damn early again in the morning.. sobzx..
it's me and my sleeping lover (ah rong).. wahaha!!
with huang mama! she's really nice and friendly who makes her guests feel at home.
after breakfast, we departed to the next activity (Shuo xi)
throughout the whole journey to the ulu ulu place, the driver (who was also our instructor for the day) was telling us all sorts of stuff about the activity.
okie.. i dont know about the rest of them. but at least, i was scared out of my wits. hah!!
but since we're there, i just chiong for it le. haha..
some pics:
it was at this midpoint where Bob lost his glasses due to the strong waters near the small waterfall.
![]()
i just think that i looked so ku-ku in the candid shots. heh.. cant help feeling silly though.
this shuo xi has gotten be one of the highlights throughout the whole trip! i really enjoyed the whole experience. and we really helped each other to pass through the different obstacles. i love teamwork!! hoho.. and of course, have to thank Mr Joseph aka Shuo xi qian mian de peng you for helping me! haha.. if not ah.. i think i'll be like lagging WAY WAY BEHIND already. .haha.. thanks man!!
but its really draining physically. BTH AH!!!
and it was mochi shopping with rong working hard to make mochi for us. =)
along the way, the view was pretty nice!
3pm and we were off to our next destination -> Kaohsiung
if i didnt remember wrongly, the train journey was quite long.. about 4-5hours. the longest train journey in our trip.
but it was good! haha.. an excellent time to replenish our energy by SLEEPINIG!!
~To KAOHSIUNG~
hmm.. the first thing we experienced was some sort of rubbish chute smell. It was awesomely damaging to dinner mood.
and it's when you're walking along the main streets that you smell it. I wonder what happened to their sewage systems. *faints*
it was evening by the time we reached our hotel. Luckily our hotel was 5mins walk away from the train station. hehe..
and we also managed to find an optical shop for Bob to make a brand new pair of glasses. haha
We had a late dinner at the night market which was a long and far distance from our hotel.
being hungry little kids, we bought hell losta of small snacks as u can see..
that's the coffin bread. its nice! couldnt figure out what it actually was.
especially the prawns!!! we bought 5 packets of different flavoured prawns. there were lemon prawns, black pepper, salted prawns just to name afew. it was scary.. you wouldnt want to think or eat prawns for the next few days. lolzx
well well.. that was pretty much what we did on Day 4!
Stay tuned to Day 5!!
