A whole day of TV and Internet!

Sunday seems to be the day to get sick! Well I got up and din feel very well and continue to lie in bed until about 11am. Then a bit grouchingly, I had to drag myself out of bed! Took some chinese herbal tea but din really help and had to use generous dose of medicated oil to lessen the pain. As a result of not feeling well, I also missed today's last study meeting and a chance to meet some of my new YWDs. As it is too wasteful to go to sleep and I don want to waste my sunday, I had to tilt my head one side and starts on my DVDs, VCDs and audio CDs cataloguing. Finally after some struggle and much medicated oil, the list is completed! Yeah!

Today I have watched almost 3 episodes of Crime Scene Investigation starting from LA, NY and Miami before going on to Boa vs Python, then the HK TVB awards (Lydia Sum got the achievement award in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of TVB) and Eragon on DVD! I had to get the original Eragon VCD. Then TV showed the TV special of HERO, the movie stariing Takuya Kimura, Takako Matsu adn Lee Byung Hun. The story is a prequel to the movie that will be in cinema this month. Yeah, all my favourite actors and actress, so I m definitely watching! After Hero was 综艺大哥大 and now I am watching CSI-Miami again!

Besides the TV, the Laptop is also on for the whole day! I have been in and out of facebook, yahoo mail and other websites! hahah.. gonna kenna radiation poisoning soon!

Now, another installment on my Taiwan's trip.


Peace train station, a place for toilet break. We are on our way to visit the jade and gold mazu temple in 南方澳, a small fishing harbour in Yilan 宜蘭 county.

The port itself just in front of the Mazu templet and supposedly, further out is where the Taiwan's naval fleet is stationed! Well since it is a seaport, you can get some sea product like dried shrimp.

This is the street of 九份, where we shop for all the mango puddings and sun biscuits! And not losing out, I got 1 big box of sourvenir here to bring back home.

Naturally weathered rocks in YeLiu 野柳. Shaped like mushrooms but tasted not like them. There is even 1 feature that resembled Queen Elizabeth.

We had dinner in this resturant called 两个飘舞的woman. Hahah.. ok this is what the guide told us so I don know whether is the correct name. Anyway, the architecture remains me of Gaudi's organic style. Well I think there is some element of organic here. I bought the book on the architecture but I have not read it yet! haha, wat's new!

Finally, the pics have reached Taipei so next blog should be in Taiwan.
