Mama,just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger,now he’s dead,
Mama,life had just begun,
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away-
Mama ooo,
Didn’t mean to make you cry-
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow-
Carry on,carry on,as if nothing really matters-
Queen Rocks...

My funny valentine
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you’re my favourite work of art
Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
But don’t change a hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentine’s day
Is your figure less than greek
Is your mouth a little weak
When you open it to speak
Are you smart?
But don’t you change one hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine stay
Each day is valentine’s day

where in the world did this gang of 5 end up last weekend? lol, well..as promised, ito kwnto ko sa trip ko taipei..ito kmi (from left to right): abel, ME, aiza, ian and kuya manny.
taipei is a 6 hour train ride from shang hua, so basically to maximize our 2 day stay in taipei, we decided to take the midnight train out of shanghua....yeah, thats me. the rest of the gang sat in pairs making me the unlucky lonely one. my seatmate wasnt even pretty.lol. so, yeah, at first i thought i wouldnt give a damn coz i thought we'd be sleeping 6 hoursof the way...but hell no - boy was i the unlukiest dude ever. see, above my seat is a leak and it was dripping at my right shoulder...imagine...so i didnt get much of a good shuteye...even sitting up was so umcomfty coz i had to huddle up to one side of the chair - rib pressed down on the armchair, trying not to get wet. well, for the camera...atleast i got to smile...lol
pair: aiza and kuya manny. bummed. its funny though, see aiza was the only girl with us, she always said that she was one of the boys, but she is in everyway not a lesbian.lol. so all of the boys in the gang wanted to sit besides her coz, for one, her cheeks are the most adorable things..lols..and for two its nice to lean on someone that is not a guy.har har...so what the boys dis is we pick lots on who'll get the lucky seat besides aiza. haay kuya manny won, daya...tas i got the unlucky seat. lol.
ayan, ito,pair number two...oh theyd love to be with aiza too but hell khit na wla...buti p sila..they get to sleep while i slave away with wet clothes...hahaha. nkkingit nga..i promised il ride in a better seat on the trip back to taiwan. 
so after 6 hours...it was about 6am, we headed straight to miss tina's, the girl in blue...she ivited us to sleep over at her place tas cya mismo tour guide nmn at...lol..."nbhla" smin when it came to transpo "fames" and food. lol. nice person i know. this pic was another 4 hours later after we had a quick breakfast and a bit more shuteye. 
so the first stop...was taipei 101...currently the guiness world record for the tallest building and fastest elevators. lol, and yeah..we got to the top for 250 NT buck...quite expensive but worth it though. 
yeah...ito un. lol... 
it was fun really, they give us this acoustic guide thingamajig that when we go to windows 1- 20, all we need is to press the corresponding number to hear the what-so about what-so buildings or scenery or mountains.lol. 
but most of the time...we got a bit too senti..lol... 
still at taipei 101... 
after 101, we went to the Chang Kai Shek Memorial Hall...One of the biggest memorial monuments i've ever seen. The stairs to the top were like about a thousand steps high...kidding...just a mere 80++, but hell, at step 60, youd be thinking otherwise. anyways... 
we came just in time for the cahnge of guard...which was really cool coz they showed us these kickass moves...soldierish yet with finisse...swear, i would have thought they were gay especailly when they march-somewhat like a fag crossed with a robot. a video would have been better than a pic... 
but afterwards, they just stood still....boring really...it would have been awesome if they like wore hugh hats and stood for hours like those in teh buck palace...but no...look closely, these cute soldiers even have fans poised at their backs....imagine an hour stand...anyone could do that (and we cant even get near them)...lol. 
oh well in fairness to my man CKS over there...i would have wanted my own memorial hall with them cute soldiers (but i would have prefered babes in wet suits..lol...ryyyttt....) 
we didnt stay long, it was about 6pm...but miss tina wanted us to go to the north most of taipei as so we could maximize our visits in our 2 day stay. we took the TRTS...awesome metro system....oh i heart thee...wish the metro was akin to those back home...*wishful thinkings.*...but oh well, it was a 30 minute ride, i could thing we were able to get(take) seats after some people got off... 
The place was waterside fair...interesting really...with all those fair games, food and the like. I wasnt really in the mood....maybe coz i was tired or coz something i wasnt supposed to feel...but not to worry...i mean, it didnt spoil the rest of my day or anything....ey teka...this shot is malabo... 
yeah..thats better with the flash and the fake smile...lol. 
lol..but eventually i did feel a bit better....especailly after dinner...actually everyone did feel better after dinner. lol... 
after dinner, we went to taipei's hwahsi street..a self acclaimed tourist night market.lol...but really its famous by its other name. Snake alley... 
ay teka...that aint a snake.... 
yeah...snake restos actually...were they serve roasted snake with and beverages of snake blood and bile...yuk. 
lol..but the live snakes were cool... 
heres one end of the 2 block street. funny, ian didnt notice the trash...lol. or did he? 
we had to stay at the market for like an hour and a half coz miss tina was taking a foot massage. so most of the time, we just practically fooled around. 
heres a picture within the alley mismo... 
after the snake alley, we decided to head to miss tina's aprtment to sleep. her apartment was actually a block away from the CKS memorial hall..kuya manny had to take terrible night shots of it. It took us an hour to walk by the CKS coz abel had this really cool british accent. and as we passed by picture exhibits featuring taipei's finest tourist attractions, he was like pretending to be our tour guide. It was really cool. At the aprtment, we didnt go right away to sleep ksi ngkaraoke p kmi...till 3 in the morning. lol....bad thing was, i started getting alot of 80 and below scores. dang. i mean, i couldnt tell if it was the mic at miss tina's house that was broken or the one back at maam engle's place. lol...but the others agreed that it was miss tina's mic that was broken...phew...mahahaha...evil laugh.
The Next Morning...WOW. sarap ng breakfast noh? thats toasted bread, orange jam, spam and egg...then yogurt, fresh milk, and COFFEE! grabeh...sarap tlga ng gcng n un. oh well...i think it was about 10 in the morning. eh sympre, puyat kmi sa videoke kgbi.
ayan....milk and toast. haaay...sarap. pretty faces khit bagong gcng..."bagong fresh..." mwahahaha...
si kuya manny, aiza and ME!
So after breakfast, we decided to visit the National Palace Musuem, pero dumaan ulit kmi sa CKS memorial hall, inorder to take the metro at the CKS station.lol. This dumaan kmi sa basement ng memorial hall where they featured most of CKS stuff...like this sedan..cool, noh?
Heres another pic, pero d na capture ung car...i had better pics sa pone ko pero cant upload them yet..drats.
lol, i forgot...we really got a kick out of 7-11's white umbrellas so all of us bought one for 60NT. ayun..posing with our umbrellas...makes us so chinesee...
another shot from outside the hall...that would be the entrace.
hahaha...sayang n shot. oh well.. this is outside their performing arts center,, we saw this huge poster of a man flying with a sword...."touch of zen"..wla lng...we wanted to try the pose out. hahaha.
Well, finally, dumating kmi sa Museum...they kinda feature alot of artifacts especially jaded items and bronze crafting.
Mr whathisName 6 handed god..lol.
Me in the lime light, lol.....thats baby buddha in the center...we thought he rocked coz he was doing the astig pose. pictures is a so dim coz they dont allow flash...hehehe.
Oh we still love breaking rules..lol. *winks*..note: flash.
For lunch, we had pizza. lol..
i bet everyone thought we were crazy at pizza hut. lol.
:D i love being a foreigner...WE WOULDNT CARE IF YOU DO! lol. see, we didnt really eat at the pizza parlor but decided to take it out. Pero, a few blocks of walking we got really hungry so decided to seat in one of them public benches, underneath the metro rails...something i wouldnt do in the Phil.
romance in teipai...but really, i did notice alot of chinese couples acting uber sweet in public. "Teenagers...Raging Hormones...They never Change (old man Bill, Spiderman)"
well, finally we went to miss tina's office. stayed an hour or two..those green bags are actually loaded with books. Coz miss tina was the infomation officer of some agricultural organization, so basically she gives away publications that are basically taking alot of space in her mini library of journals and reports...hahaha..it was an incredible find...more like a raid. lol.
Heres Aiza featuring our white payongs in the buffet diner where we had our last dinner sa teipai....after this it was home sweet Shan Hua...hehehe.
Ayun..there wasnt much pics in the later part ng trip ksi we ran out of battery..lol. Going home...i was lucky..may katabi na ako, the roof aint leaking and i did get some shuteye. The Train Car also got lonely after sometime so eventually the gang started owning two chairs to sleep on. Damn, i still want to add more pics, from my phone particularly ksi mas mrmi ako nkuha na details dun...hehehe. Haay..yan trip nmn. Msya and worth the money spent.
