Heavy Rain's story is a dramatic thriller modeled after film noir, featuring four protagonists involved with the mystery of the Origami Killer, a serial killer who uses extended periods of rainfall to drown his victims. Ethan Mars is a father who is trying to save his son from being the next victim, while investigative journalist Madison Paige, FBI profiler Norman Jayden, and private detective Scott Shelby are each trying to track down clues to the Origami Killer's identity.

I love it! It is like CSI ~

I changed my blog template again. Hope all of u like it! I like it very much. Decided not to put my tagboard here since there has been alot of spammers. But U are welcome to leave a comment below! :) Please let me know if my template is uncomfortable to your eyes. I have also put older posts' link below in case u missed any previous posts. I shall try to update more frequently.
Still thinking whether I should put my blog as public. Since i took a long time doing an entry, i may as well let more people see. Well.. just let me consider...
Here to blog about my Taiwan trip. I know it was 6 months ago but i promised simba i will finish blogging about it :) Here to keep my promise.

Our Latte from 7-11. We love the tea and coffee there! Creative designs and many varieties! :P They tasted much much better than the food.

Everyday we took a picture in the lift. Kind of make it like a routine.

The hotel that looks very ancient.

Looking at our iternary! I am so proud of it since i did it by my efforts of research and simba modified it to be more organised and aappealing to the eyes. I guess that's why simba followed strictly to the schedule. lols. He kept on hurrying me!! I love the drink he is holding too.

We randomly picked a breakfast house :) Simba ordered some weird noodles but he was persistent to finish it. Omg, what a horrible taste to start the day with. Being on the safe side, i only eat the scrambled egg with soy sauce from the 2nd morning onwards. The food has proven to be not of my taste. :P


Simba writing down our orders. ;)

This was the weird noodles. He was stunned by the taste!

My ordinary scrambled egg.

We wanted to go the Palace Museum since we applied for the Youth Card and it gives discounts to the visit to this museum :D We got off at ShiLin station and spotted this shop. Bought many many accessories from here.

Interesting shops. Creative! I don't think it's a pet shop. Just some accessories shop.


We took a bus over!

But got off at the wrong stop. haha.

With my newly bought hair tye.

Decide to walk towards our destination. Passed by a big kindergarden on the way.

And also the natives park. The fake slide. U could burn your butt sliding down.




When we finally reached. Likes this photo! Prefect angle.

Yeah he climbed up for the photo with the lion. Quite dangerous i think!



LOL!

We climbed many stairs before we finally reached the top where the museum is situated. Exhausted. Hence, the view is pretty magnificent! Love it. We will never see it in SG.

Top: Our Youth Travel Card.
Bottom: Admission Ticket
And our admission is just SGD$4! The original price was around SGD8 to SGD12!
Wasn't allowed to take photos in the museum. :( Sian 1/2. I always go against the law by sneakily taking out my camera but was caught by security haha. So paiseh!
So we didn't stay long in it since we are more excited going shopping later on haha.

We tried to go by the back of the museum and take a shortcut so that we don't have to walk down the many stairs back again. It was simba's idea and i felt rather unsafe about it but just have to trust him lols.

We walked along the narrow road, occasionally keeping away from the huge buses.


We finally reached a bus stop after the long long walk. And the bus took very long to come.


When we were back at ShiLin station, we wandered around hoping to find something nice to eat. Since we would be heading to a hot spring place later where dessert would be served, we only wanted to eat something light. And we found this dumpling cafe. lols.

We thought that if we write quantity as 1, they would serve 3 dumplings in a plate. But we were terribly wrong. lols. It was really 1 dumpling! Its price for 1 dumpling is about SGD0.90 and we thought it was 3 for SGD0.90. We were so over the moon until the few dumplings came. Miserable portion. lols.

Luckily i ordered sour spicy noodles too! It's nice.. Finally one that deserves our praises. But i have tasted in SG so it wasn't like a surprise for me.

The curry and prawn guo tie! We LOVE it. Something new for us.

The 4 dumplings with 4 different flavors.



After that we went to BeiTou station. As you know, it's famous for hot springs.

And saw this cute exhibit at the station. We had to wait our turns to take a photo! There were too many tourists.

The train from Beitou to Xinbeitou has many cute prints on them.

We were so inquisitive about what this machine in the train does. So high tech.
It shows u the map of where the hot springs are.

Many locals look pretty bewildered by what we were doing. we just kept taking photos with the machine. Well.. It's human nature to take it for granted when things are closer to us i guess.
Like if i saw tourists outside Ngee Ann City taking photos with the lion, i would be puzzled too. Everytime see i also sian already lols.


Cute sign!


At Xinbeitou molesting the statues.

We looked as though we are going to conquer some rock climbing obstacles behind us.

Simba ran out of money lols! We tried this machine. haha. We can enter our pin number but no money came out. We thought there is a Masters card sign on it that looks totally like Singapore's?! Life is confusing.


After a pretty long walk, we reached The Four Seasons Hotel to have the hot spring. Ling's recommendation. It was such a grand hotel.

And after that, we were invited for a dessert at their cafe.

The dessert took about half an hour to arrive. We were wondering whether they forgot about it. We smiled at the waitress and she smiled back. I'm not sure whether it is an act of guilt or ignorance? lols. We were thinking we were the only customers in the cafe and if they forgot, they would be really blur.



My hair was wet from the hot spring. The hotel provided me with a hair clip and i just anyhow clip my hair up. Hence the messy hair.

The coffee suspended from the coffee machine has this kind of pattern when mixed with milk. Cool spiral pattern.

I took plenty of these packets back home. lols! It's free what!


Our dessert. We began to ponder why these food took so long to be prepared. Maybe they were waiting for watermelon to be ripe. lols.

I shall stop here for the moment. Photobucket has not been able to load the rest of my photos. -_-""
Continuing soon! :)
