hello! just came back from taiwan, okay maybe not 'just'. came back last night - midnight. was dead beat tired (caught a later flight) and was walking like a drunkard (no kidding) on the travellator, lying on any place i can find. just immediately slumped down on my bed and slept. and i woke up at 10.30am today. hmm. gonna be a rather? long post since you people kept on staring on the 'ello!' word for a week. so this better keep you occupied...
how come everytime you come around my london london bridge, wanna go down like londo...taiwan is really nice. okay not architecture wise, cos it's really old, faded and such. but i really loved the weather there. it was cold cold, but really windy, like just feeling the wind and breeze past/smash across your face is really good. the places we went to were great and was a really great experience.
IWANTTHEIRCLOTHES!!!!!! apparently, my father didn't allow me to buy ANY of them cos they were either to punk/retro/teenager-ish/plain. GREAT! so what does he want me to buy? it's really affordable but my father won't allow me to buy them. ximending's clothes really rocked. but yes. i want the top fergie wore in the 'don't phunk with my heart' video. sheesh. and there were the upper-class clothes but obviously were to expensive. like prada, armani exchange, and so on. i ONLY got a b.u.m long sleeved t-shirt. yes, out of the whole trip. arh. it was expensive, i think 55 bucks. but darn, nvm. i bought alot of things and i think spent like 300-400 SGD. gawd. i just bought and bought.
yeahh! they really had nice ENGLISH songs in their shops! my humps, don't cha, push the button and so on. rather surprised.
oh yes, i bought an ARTIST CAP! woohoo! i really wanted it alot lah. it cost me $50. whoosh. i know it's expensive, it's made of rabbit's hair or smth like that. and it's not branded already. if i was to get an agnes b. or burberry artist's cap it would totally blow my pocket. i won't spend already. i'm waiting for my 13th birthday...so i can apply for a part time job. ONLY THEN THAN IS LEGAL!
you boy, you miss me like a hole in your head, because of you boy...i bought two bags. one imitation, the other a belgium branded. the imitation was 'billabong'. haha, it looked quite nice actually. the other [the belgium brand - i.am] was really simple and cute. it's kindduf sick actually..but before i say how sick it is, i'll tell you this:
i started looking for a bag cos 1) the imitation (i think) 'puma' bag jieru, sr, and bernice bought for my b'day broke.(it's really alright, it's the thought that counts!) 2) i need a new school bag
so my dad and i went to a small mall in ximending, and there were porter bags (super branded/not well known/and apparently my dad's a fan of it). my dad wanted me to get it, and i didn't want cos it was really old-fashioned. i saw a really cute and nice bag, and the brand was called 'playboy'. it was a really good bag okay.
and just because the brand was 'playboy', my dad didn't allow me to buy it.
cos
he said that the school won't allow it as it was 'playboy'. their logo is a RABBIT! it's so innocent and cute. and there was no big word which said 'playboy' on it. only a RABBIT! and many of you probably never heard of the brand in singapore (it was my first time hearing it too), it's not really popular in singapore.
just because it was 'playboy'..
the ironic thing is. the belgium brand i got. i.am. haha, the brand doesn't sound sick at all, right? hmm? the funny thing is it's description of the brand and so on (like tagline) is:
"i was the fastest swimming spermatozoon, one in a million, by chance or fate? now i'm here questioning around, "who i am?", "where do i come from and go?" i'm looking for clues, i only find thoughts. but that's fine, it proves that I.AM"
oh mann, my quote thingy is not working, but nvm. there's a second tagline [i forgot] and it's about eggs/ovums. my father DID see the tagline, but he didn't say a word, cos he already bought it. their logo is actually like an atrostophe inside a circle [sperm inside and egg]. seriously. their tagline [the one above] is actually quite meaningful, really.
oh yes, i bought a book, "the shadow of the wind". it's a really nice book, thoghrouly readable and thrilling.
it's basically about a boy named daniel who went into the "cemetary of forgotton books" and was allowed to pick one. daniel picked "the shadow of the wind - by julio caraz" [no, it's not the same book]. as he grew up, more and more people became interested in his find and wanting to know about the dead julio caraz and the living who they can save.
it's a mystery. a puzzle in the book, turning into reality. [cryptic], solving a puzzle within the book to save someone's life.
i don't think it's in singapore yet, i bought it at SGD$22 that's actually expensive. oh yes and the memory's keeper's daughter is actually $12 SGD there, compared to what we have here, which is $23. whoosh. i bought it at $23, and finding it in taiwan $11 dollars cheaper.
sigh.
this post is basically what i bought, i have no idea why. i'll tell you about my own experiences in taiwan itself later on.
