Greetings from Tapei! I’m currently at the Eva Air VIP lounge. Did a lot of exploring at the shops here. I didn’t even finish looking at them all. There’s so much! But I have run into two Coach stores here so far. *cough* (referring to some drama that started in my Coach haul video) And by the way, when I walked into one of the Coach stores, I was being followed. No words, no nothing. Awkard dude. So I turn around, look straight at the SA, and she just looks back. No words. What the hell? How rude. Probably thought I was going to steal something. Come on, it’s “only Coach!”. Yes, I look like a bum. Don’t expect me to look glamorous and dress up for a 14 hour flight. You’re lucky I even brushed my teeth! Anyway, the airplane food was disgusting. It’s been so long since I’ve flown international, and the first time flying international as a vegetarian.

I watched Norton Hears a Who, this really awesome Chinese movie called The Empress and the Warriors, and some parts of a ridiculous Korean high school or middle school drama. The acting and cinemetography (sorry I don’t spell check right now) were so horrible I couldn’t help but laugh. And the script, well, it was definitely original, I’ll give it that. Something about a tomboy girl and she has a sissy guy friend. They end up boxing each other and if the guy wins, she has to be his girlfriend. LOL. And the kids of her class kept making fun of her because her family owns a boxing school and call her the “boxing queen”. That’s supposed to be insult? I’d want to be a boxing queen! That’s boss!

Oh, and I departed from SF international. Um… SF is COLD! Freeeeezing! I’m tagging along with my dad, my dad’s boss who I will call “Mr. Bossman”, and a client. Mr. Bossman did not get a special visa so he almost couldn’t leave! Lots of magic and connections were worked out and he got his visa in less than an hour! Even the witch manager or whatever she was of the airline company was shocked at how quick things went.

Don’t know what I’m going to do next. Probably go over to the counter and ask the lady to change the game on the available xbox 360 (which I don’t know if it’s still available now. There’s like 5 of them or something. I was on my way to the counter until I saw the bussiness lounge :P)

OH, and sad thing. I was just going to check how much memory I had left on my camera, and I accidentally formated the card. Which means all the yummy food I’ve had prior to leaving were lost So sorry.

Oh, and another thing. Taiwan people love Hello Kitty don’t they? lol.

I wonder when we’re transfering flights…

Left over pizza from about a week ago. I froze the leftovers. It’s a typical vegetarian pizza that most pizza parlors offer and I requested to get creamy garlic sauce with it instead of marinara because I hate that stuff. This particular pizza consists of cheese, mushrooms, black olives, bell peppers, onions, artichoke hearts, and tomatoes. So I take the frozen pizza, put it in the oven to heat up, and eat it straight off the foil because I’m too lazy to wash an extra dish

I had an avocado smoothie with tapioca pearls in it. I didn’t like the pearls; too chewy.

I made a Vietnamese noodle soup called Banh Canh. It’s like Udon kind of. I added some vegetarian shrimp balls I found at the Asian market and something called “dragon balls” which are also vegetarian. I have no idea what they are supposed to be, but they were pretty good.
