Taipei

I went to Taipei with dear and her parents. The 1 week took from 07 June 2014 to 14 June 2014. The wedding shoot lasted a day with Lishe, but the entire one week, we planned our free and easy trip, and had lots of walking.

Taipei is the northern part of Taiwan, it is a very clean city. Despite little dustbins around, the ground never seem to have obvious rubbish or trash around. The food is also cheap and good. Hotel services are excellent, despite hotel is only 2 or 3 stars. Taxi services are ethical as well. Even public toilets has no lack of toilet rolls, and toilet seats has seats paper for people to place and used. The MRT has also good guiding lines for passengers to follow the queue and move in. Road traffic lights have around 90 seconds for people to cross. At some places, there is a diagonal criss-cross for road crossing. In fact, I feel that Singapore has really a lot to learn from Taipei.

The food such as porkchop rice, chicken drumstick rice, bento, wildboar meat sausage, and black pig meat sausage are all delectable delicacy one should try.

The fast food such as KFC does not provide any sauces, while Mcdonald only serves Tomato sauce, and not chilli. Perhaps, Taiwan people does not seem to have the habit to eat chilli or chilli sauce.

Tian Bu La fried version has heard to be diminishing, given the food price and exclusive oil standard needed to fried the stuff, while horse betting has been abolished over the past 8 years.

Anyway, our brief itinerary:

First day arrival and check in to hotel, went to Taipei civil building to walk and have our first meal at the underground mall.

2nd day went to Zhong Zheng Memorial hall and Lishe photographer

3rd day wedding shot at various locations from university building to natural spring to waterfall

4th day to Xi Men Ding and then Lishe for photo selection, and then to Ferris Wheel area

5th day to Kitty Cable car at Hill area cum Zoo and then check in to Cannes Car motel

6th day to IT mall, and departmental stall, followed by Taipei 101 and Raohe night market

7th day to Ulay natural mountain area waterfall.

8th day back to Singapore evening.

Happy 2014!

It has been awhile, since I last penned down my thoughts at my very own blog. Luckily, I could remember this blog and is now attempting to revive it. Want to wish everyone a Blessed and Happy New Year!

What is my resolution for the year? Let me put them down:

1) To slim down (Got to lose up to 5kg to make it ideal. In fact, need 10kg to make it perfect).

2) To gain promotion (Hard, but possible. Gaining promotion or at least, increment would serve as the next best alternative. Ultimate, job satisfaction must play a major role. If the current does not permit, elsewhere is there for one to search).

3) To take wedding shots (Planned. Will execute actions with dear and her family).

4) To be trained in tactical firearms at Artemis Defence (This is for the love and passion of tactical and Special forces. To be involved in tactical and self-defence, for counter-terrorism interest and 'fantasy').

5) To earn more money (Job that are not sales, tend to have fix salary with some periodically 50/50 increment. Therefore more freelance or part time jobs on weekend might be a viable solution. Must make it happen).

Alright, once again, those who see this, shall be Prosperous and have a very happy and elated 2014!Cheers!
