Maybe in 2010

Sorry for the absence in blogging. The truth is I'm trying to get used to Taiwan's everything and I think I'm slowly coming around. I must say that this weekend that just passed has been the most eventful and fun so far!
Taipei Main Station ><
On the night of new year's eve I went out with a few friends to the new year's eve concert. The one where the big names such as LeeHom, Rainie and Farenheit would be appearing in. OMG there was so many people that it was so not funny! I came out people phobic. I am serious. Public transport particularly was a biatch!! But we eventually made it to the event. Too bad we couldn't really see the stage. So we missed the second half of the concert to be able to go watch the 101 fireworks. Taiwan's fireworks are very well known.. if you guys didn't know already. The show was quite cool.. and I got some decent shots! But I missed out on watching LeeHom :( haha its ok I think I will have another chance at meeting him while I'm in Taipei... I don't know why but I really think I will have a chance.

Taiwan Up?

After the fireworks we made a slow trek back. And by slow I mean slow. Mainly cos I wore heels (bad idea) and it was FREZZING!! Like 12 degrees! My friend said that 12 degrees is considered warm!! Gah! So after the fireworks we went to go watch the raising of the national flag. It was to be raised at 6am. LOL and there was apparently free scarfs if you went early. So we went at 3.30am to get the scarf.. but it was so fail LOL we didn't manage to get them ><><>

Random Fan who helped us firgure out we need a queue number


Then on the Saturday, it was time to do some star stalking haha. No Farenheit had an autograph session at Xi Men Ding. And of course we were there like *click* but Taiwanese fans are pretty hard core... they beat us to it. LOL We didn't even know that you had to get a queue number.. so by the time we figured that out we were number 855 to get signed :( and we had been there at 11.30am when the even was to start at 2pm. It was raining really badly that day and we all got really wet. Luckily Yuvina and I went to the 7/11 to get umbrellas! The waiting process was so bad.. it went so slowly! Yuvina almost gave up cos she was so hungry and needed to pee. But eventually we got near to our turn. That was at about 7pm!! So when our number got called we were so excited.. with only 20 people in front of us we held up our signs mine read "with love from Australia". haha. While I was at the front I saw Jiro give a *sigh* and then looked at my direction.. so I did the 'Jia You' gesture to him. AND HE SAW ME!! He smiled back said Jia you and waved to me *dies* hahah such a fan girl. So I took the chance to show him my sign. He looked puzzled when trying to read it (maybe cos it was a bit tattered by the rain) but then Calvin told him Australia. hah then Calvin turned to ask me Australia? Really? Where? Sydney or Melbourne? I told him Pertttthhhhhh!!! haha it was so awesome. We got to shake their hands and talk to them while on stage when they were signing the cards omg so awesome. Gah Yuvina and I were totally star struck. They were so nice and so much more good looking in real life hahah.

The end result *dies*


Then Yesterday we did some more star searching. I got autographed cds from Lin You Jia and Rainie Yang!! It was pretty awesome. But I don't think those two could be the Farenheit experience, mainly cos we waited so long for Farenheit.. and it was a lot quicker for the others. Still very awesome tho!


Also Also Caz Caz and Will are in Taiwan at the moment. *yay* we're going out to celebrate Will's Birthday tonight! Hopefully they will have an awesome time here. Its so good to see familiar faces!
