The manager terminated my contract with Recruit Express and gave me $8/hr from 1st Aug onwards. :) HAPPY!! Kind of nice of her ;P She was reprimanded by the agent for that. I heard her negotiating with the agent for about 15 mins. She lied and said she terminated me cos she found a new permanent staff to replace me. LOLS. The agent was so apologetic towards me! I'm feeling ultra guilty.





The assistant manager was supposed to come back to work today but she didnt! She extended her hospitalization leave! I feel so bad i dunno why.





Simba said i am spending ages to blog about 2nd day in Taiwan. Cant really blame me u see. Blogger took a thousand year to upload a photo.





Here goes: Taiwan day 2 part 1 (I know its been a month lols. U can skip this entry if u find it boring!)

















































The morning tea we bought from the 7 eleven! Its a happy sized packet. Only found there i think.

















Me and his backpack.































Him with mine.





















































I always like the public phone pic!
Wanna take photos of every public phone stand of every country i went to.



































We see this green tea poster everywhere!














The priority seat ;)
No one will sit in this seat even when it is quite crowded.



























































We bought a 3 days transport pass for TWD440 (SGD$20). Can enjoy unlimited rides on mrt and bus! How cool is that! We took our first mrt ride to the first memorial hall. Zhong Zheng Ji Nian Tang. 2 stops from Xi Men Ding! Take the lime green line :)
































































I like all the posters there. So cute!

And the adv are cute and funny :) They use the 'ge yi' to speak funnily.

The adverts always like to promote the medicinal plasters for old ppl.

































We are here at CKS Memorial Hall after a short walk. It was so HOT! 33 Degrees Celsius. Burnt!


































He forms a star! I thought tt was creative :P
















We were overwhelmed by the sight of the few majestic buildings.














































































































Umbrellas are essential for a hot hot morning.
Was thinking at that moment that i shld have brought my suntan lotion. But now, i didnt regret. I have become darker and i love my tanned skin. :)
















































The coke has its chinese wordings. I still like the English design better!





































Doesnt this picture remind u of some American countries? Where paths are enclosed by xmas-like shaped trees. If u watched 'The Happening', u shld know what i mean.
























































He pities the lion out in the hot sun forever in summer!

















He said he wanna invite people directly into the door!
I kept asking him to shift his hands right and left :)





































Climbing the stairs alone could kill me! I was panting when i reached the top. Such an old lady.
















Love the view behind us!
He suggested to take this view. From a high place down!









Felt a sense of achievement whenever i see this photo!











The marching of guards.
Yuan lai what simba meant by 'hourly change of guards' is that the guard will stand still for an hour, and wait an hour for a march past and his colleague to replace him. He wanna get to the hall by 10am exactly to watch the march past. We didnt miss any part of it, since simba kept hurrying me on our way. lols.
I thought they must have felt like celebrities since many tourists were video-caming them. But simba said they learnt nothing from the job. Boring job.








I took a complete video of them. Didnt know why it was so nice, but simba liked it anyway.





































He wanna slide down from the top. lols.

















Back at the mrt when we saw this big lolli! Made by young children.
Some adv for charity.

















We thought the train comes from another direction. He wanna to capture me in an angle such that it looks like the train is knocking me down. But failed!














My mobile compass that took me to everywhere without me studying the map at all!
