Returned from Taiwan this morning, reaching home at about 2am. It's really an eventful trip. A typhoon swept through Taiwan while we were there. Although we only caught the fringe of it, the wind were still quite strong (it was classified as a stage 11 wind, according to Hong Swee). Another highlight was on the last day of the trip, when Eric, Hong Swee and me got a chance to ride a scooter on the streets of Taiwan. Yes, it's an reletively empty street, but still, it was a pretty memorable experience. Was quite suprised with the scooter's pickup. It's even faster than my Ah Kong's bike with maximum throttle. Maybe it's because of it's lightweight i guess.

Spent all of the NT6100 that i'm left with from the last commando trip, mostly on foodstuff. The cold drinks on the ninja van was really irresistible, espically in such hot weather. Too were the chicken chop and "chai tao kueh". Also bought some "mua chee", plums and sun biscuits for my parents. Bought a softtoy that scold vulgarities, together with a fila shirt for my bro. Only managed to get two shirts for myself. Actually, this is actually a good time to shop in Taiwan, as all the summer clothes are now on sale. Too bad, i didn't bring enough money with me.

The up-coming trip will be Wallaby, Australia. Then next year, there are two back-to-back Thailand trips before i ORD. 258 more days...
