Random musings

So I apparently chased the typhoon away. But according to E's dad typhoons are very common in Taiwan around this time and usually they dun get THAT dangerous so no worries. Feel that I'm a rather bochap traveller on a homestay this time round, bunking over in a unit at one of those grey shops cum residential buildings with metal grilles that are scattered all over the city :P. And instead of wanting to visit all there is to see, I've mostly been shopping and eating...and watching a lot of Jappy stuff on Taiwanese TV. Bought quite a few fakeo Lesportsac cute print bags yest at night market hehe, but a bit sore now that I didn't bargain more :(. Will be tagging along to some family lunch later and then perhaps doing an afternoon trip to a nearby town. *Feels nua*

Haven't been reading the weather forecasts faithfully these past few days, but both according to E and paranoid parents, typhoon and Shi Min are both arriving in Taipei at around the same time. Hmm... perhaps plans to visit scenic Hualien will be foiled by impending thunderstorms... but in any case, hope everything goes smoothly for me and I'll at least get to catch up with E, whom I haven't seen for a year... and relax a bit. Everything else I shall treat as bonus :) I'll be back on Tues night!

Holiday in sight!

Come Thurs, I would be flying off to Taipei for a short holiday :) But am super stressed now cos not only do I have a fair bit of work to settle; am also recovering from a mild flu and trying hard not to end up sick on day of departure (cos Dad threatened to not let me go if I wasn''t in good shape...) But how to sleep more/rest well yet finish all the things you have to do?? Oh well, I trust that I should be able to manage somehow... try my best to do whatever I need to do... play hard then come back and face the music :P
