mid sem break!!!!

After 3 weeks of torturing from archi lecturers, submission and test, finally 1 got 2 weeks break, basically really want 2 leave Perth n forget about uni stuff… last year around this period, i was in KL n Taipei, so this year’s easter would be the same, I went back to KL n Taipei again but this time my trip include half day penang and Singapore 2 visit my friends. I just hope tat this would be my every easter or sem break event!! (dad gonna kill me). My Taiwan trip this time, not traveling alone but wit my family friends, Debbie + her dad n brother and surprisingly my dad, which was force by my mom to follow me… hehe, wit my dad around I can ask him to pay for my stuff!!

(left to right) geting ready to fly to hualien - after landing at cks international from kl, we rushed to songshan domestic airport in the ct to catch another flight to hualien. surprisingly the airport n airlines works exactly like a bus station n bus, any destination ever hour n its cheap!!! no ticket booking, no 2 0r 1 hour check in early. my flight was at 4pm, we only bought the ticket 15 minutes earlier, some ppl even purchace at 4pm n depart on the same plane. ; taipei 101 can be seen at the airport

We went to hualien, toroko national park n taipei. Its their 1st time to Taiwan, so I need to bring them around as a tour guide, not much time for myself to shop but I do enjoy my dad n uncle’s company. It’s my third time traveling to Taiwan ever since 2 years ago, friends wondering y am I travel there so often… They were suspecting me of having some relationship over there! I wish I had… it just that I attracted to their culture, friendliness and hospitality. i felt even more when we visit my uncle's friends in hualien.

My trip 2 Penang was a real short one, flew to pg right after I touch down from Taipei, really missed the food, especially assam laksa… 2 bad i cant make it for that, but I manage to have prawn noodle n fry kway tiow … thz 2 teong for spending the whole time wit me, appreciate it a lot. Flew back early next day n without any rest, straight away I drove my family to ipoh!!! 2 days later I missed my flight to Singapore because of overslept.

Somewhere in Perak, Capture this on my way to kl from pg… there was a technical problem on this aircraft, some air pressure shit…that causes my flight 2 delay for 2 hours at pg. the plane was flying very low than usual throughout the whole journey, bet they still use the plane to fly without fixing it!! that's the mas way!!

Anyway I manage to catch another flight the next day but it’s kinda late, supposing to fly on the early morning flight but still, i overslept. Touch down sg at 1pm, n guess wart… I need to be at home before 7pm at the same day for dinner!!!! This means tat I only have 2 hour to spend in sg n my next flight back is at 5pm. I check-in at the airport right after I touch down. a few ground staff at the special check-in lounge gave me a weird look and told me i cant make it to jb n back again to fly at 5... but i took up the challange. Cherry at that time are bz wit her work so have no time to meet up for coffee, so I went across the causeway to jb (msia) met up with han seng n have coffee at starbucks pelangi mall… a quick 1 hour chat n off I go again back to sg to catch my plane back to kl….yes, i made it... i even spent 1 hour at SQ lounge enjoying my champange n food...lol (all together 1 hour on taxi for traveling from changi to woodland checkpoint and back, 20 min for going thru both sg causeway immigration n 10 min on bus on the crossing the causeway)

now, i have no idea y i need 2 put myself in all these.... but it was certainly my another crazy attempt ……… more to come i guess...
