LOL, i’ve been neglecting my blog again !! Damn quite irresponsible blogger. Right now i got dragged to the office to follow up some stuff, boring and i hate just sitting down just in the office, so that is why i got time to write something now hahaha. So things are quite happening lately, life been pretty awesome ! After came back from Melbourne, been pretty pack with a lot of stuff, meet ups and places to go.

Ok sorry people but for my Melbourne trip i dint have many pictures taken sorry, but i will summarize my trip and recommend a restaurant. Touch down in Melbourne at 2am in the morning is freaking tired, feels like a total zombie taking 8 hours in air asia and with the stupid 3 hours delay. Basically my life everyday in Melbourne is stay at my sister house, eat sleep, online online, tweet. Quite pathetic because i go bad timing, people are working or having exams and they cant come out ! but ain’t that bad, i still go out walk around the city do some shopping still meet up with friends for lunch and dinner but a real quick one.

I was at this restaurant at swanston street, a mixture of korean and japanese. They serve both korean and japanese cuisine which is quite convenient, when you friends who want to eat korean and other people want to eat japanese, good combo !

The restaurant name is call Big MaMa. Very superb dishes they serve.

i ordered the Spicy BBQ pork a korean dish, boy it was awesome !!

Yumzzzz… My fav ! pork ! wheee !!!

My sis ordered some tofu thinggy

Then this spicy korean soup, is quite spicy.

Then we have the Stone Pot Rice.

Put the sauce mix mix mix.

All pictures are taken with my handphone Sony Ericsson Satio. Not bad picture eh for a camera phone ! =)

Stay tune next update Sorcerer Apprentice!! and a few more updates try to get it posted this week ! Cheers !

Hohoho sorry this took too long for me to update. I was in United Kingdom for winter holidays for 10 days and boy it was awesome! Took AirAsia got good deals and was there for Christmas. Touch down at the airport in the middle of the night in UK time, and we were all half dead from travelling 13 hours on the plane. Check in to the nearest hotel in the airport Holiday Inn. The day we touched down in UK it was the 1st day of snowing in the year, quite lucky and yet not so lucky because it was snowing rather very heavily!

Crazily snowing for the next 2 days.

Next day we rent 2 vans take road trip up to Lake District, boy that was 1 exciting road trip. Have u ever try driving yourself on a road trip in a foreign country and with snow? Is damn dangerous and quite exciting actually. Roads is slippery highway is foggy, you can barely see the cars infront of you, maybe only few meters away

The weather condition is actually quite bad and dangerous. Even the windscreen gets foggy and blurry with the snow and is so damn freaking cold. 1 thing i hate travelling in cold country is you have to put on so many cloths, and taking it off and putting it on again.

So on the way there is this shopping place kinda like factory outlet. Branded stuff are very cheap here, brands like Burberry, Tommy Hilfiger, Guess, Polo and many more, you name it they most probably have it. The reason why i don’t like cold weather is wearing so many thing, and i look like a yellow banana.

Here is like shopping heaven for girls and girls in my family, bought so damn many stuff but is really cheap compare to Malaysia. Buying a Burberry shirt cos how much? just about 20 – 40 pound which is about RM 100-200 where malaysia is about 400-600. Branded goods are just cheaper and newer overseas. One of the reason i like shopping in overseas is they have my size ! and is not as expensive and very affordable.

1 thing i always wonder, the weather is so so damn cold, but the dogs or animals no need wear winter clothing. So does growing long hair helps keeping you warm? Like animals hehe.

I was in a town call stratford-upon-avon, somewhere north of london while on the way on our road trip to Scotland Edingburgh, is a town where William Shakespeare was born and lived. So this where all the literature and poem origin from, the lovely lovely poem, quotes everything by him. Even have his museum but i dint visit, was pretty expensive to go in.

Here are some love quotes i took from the gift shop.

This is how the “kampung” looks like.

Looks like my bro are enjoying the snow. Stay tuned for more pictures and update !

Sorry for the last part of the update. Been really caught up with the new year many to do so little time. Even my gaming and sleeping time is gone already T_T. College has started, so many people to meet, many places to go etc, i dont even have time to stay at home ahhahahaha. Here is my final part for taiwan enjoy =)

This place is where the heroes of taiwan soldier are remembered. The soldiers that fight with china and died for the country and the heroes that kill those communist chinese in china. The funny thing there is another memorial thing in china where is vice versa, where the china heroes are remembered and honored fighting the opposition taiwanese ahahhahaha. These are all during the early 1900’s.

After this memorial place we visited Chiang Kai-shek mansion. I dint take much picture from that place, well also because im not a photographer or picture taking person thou =/ sorry bout that people. Chiang Kai-shek is a commandant of Kuomintang’s, he is the person that fight the china communist and fled to taiwan. Well is a pretty long story about him and he is one of the reason Taiwan wants independent  or they claim they already are. You can read here more about Chiang Kai-shek.

Here is another museum of china’s arts and artifact that Chiang Kai-shek illegally import from main land china to taiwan after he lost the war fighting the communist. Apparently he stole alot of artifacts from the 1700’s the stuff where the emperor use back then. Well too bad no pictures are allow to be taken inside the museum so cant post much pics on those artifacts, and documents that was smuggled into taiwan. So enough of all the history lessons is getting kinda boring already but well when u go to china or taiwan, alot of sight seeing involve historical things and places, and china has 4000 years of history imagine that. Imagine we study “sejarah” in mainland china, in a way is more interesting then our local parameswara and melaka and all the islam thinggy, but history in china is actually quite entertaining and amazing, stuff like great wall of china, stuff they invented, and many more !!

Oh look a fully pink and stickered hello kitty car!! is darn cute… and i bet alot girls here in malaysia would love to own this car ahahhaha. Well this car just caught my attention and hardly u come across this cars in msia so just to show u people =)

Everything here is for girls wan, shoes, fashion, accessory, and also alot dog clothing and cute cute stuff here lol, oh oh and not to forget more street food here!!! uh… come here really can make u darn fat.. and need to do more when go back malaysia wei.

A very happening shopping spot at night. You know whats the best thing about shopping here? Is the weather!! is night time, is not so hot like malaysia, temp is just like genting highland, average branded goods are cheaper then malaysia, with weather like this u wont get tired shopping lol.

Well im a banana i cant read or translate to you guys on the shop, but all i know is this shop serve one of the best mee sua in taipei. Very famous among tourist and the local, no place to sit wan have to stand and eat. Is one of the must try food if u are around ! Seriously la taiwan too many stuff to eat and buy already, i should organize a trip back to taiwan with friends so we can all get fat there lol !!! what say u friends and bloggers? onZ? hehe.. wait till Air Asia got seriously cheap ticket we take the opportunity k?

Taiwan is’nt that cold thou, the weather there is pretty cool, is just like in genting!!! not too cold and not too hot. Thats what i like about the place and is winter!!! so is not extremely cold like other winter country. Things in taiwan is not that expensive thou, they are slightly cheaper then malaysia, like average branded stuff like nike, adidas, etc those brands. Still like i said the food there is gorgeous !! those small little stalls on the streets call “xiao chee” meaning small eats, if u buy 1 of each and eat it will get u really bloated wei, like really really full!!

This is a place call “khen thing” is like a narrow narrow place where ppl open stalls sells lots of local stuff and food here. Its so damn crowded that all i can see is peoples ass =.= is so damn hard to walk in that place… every1 is like sardine. Im surprise that alot ppl in taiwan bring dogs out to “kai kai” everywhere i go i see people carry their cute dogs around. Oh ate something awesome in this place also, any1 tried icecream with peanuts and poh piah??? xD is damn awesome wei!!!! one of the best ice cream i ever ate !!! with the poh piah i think is better then any haigen dazz or baskin robin lol, but if add haigen dazz or baskin robin ice cream inside it would be the awesomeness!!!! SYOK!!! LOL!!!

Here we have Taipei 101, is like our KLCC in malaysia just that it has only 1 block no twins. Offices with shopping mall and commercial stuff. Some how is very chinese design it looks abit like a pagoda =.= think the architech must be a chinese then lol

Below the tall taipei 101 building.

This mall is like our very own KLCC shopping center and the price is like Star Hill. Everything is so branded there and freaking expensive !!! alot of designers brand there and i mean alot, like Louise Vuitton, Coach, Gucci, too many to list them out la and they are seriously like @@ sucking blood. Spend there 1 hour ++ drooling over those branded stuff that we cannot afford @@ lepak. Went to the LV shop so damn many people make me think, wah taiwan ppl so rich wan can buy LV and is like so damn packed, unlike the LV store in star hill where u only see rich ass people shopping in the store.

 Dinner went to this taiwan style hawker stall call “shi ling yeah shi” sorry if my pin yin is very bad for the fact that im a banana =.= so my mandarin suck lol. 1 day should really go back to taiwan again with friends and just chill relax and makan until we puke (overfeed lol) because is damn good wei!!! ok now stay tune for the next part !! sorry for the delay update, been really busy from xmas till new year !!!
