Day 19 -- Reunion at Taipei!

Ok, I'm late in posting again because I was so tired last night. So this is what I did yesterday!

Stop 1 -- Shin-Chan exhibition and Taiwan Design Museum
I spent the day at 台北文创园区 visiting the Shin Chan exhibition, some interactive exhibition and the Taiwan Design Museum! I had so much fun for the first 2 stops, especially the Shin Chan exhibition because Shin Chan was part of my childhood! And I love how mischievous he is!! Needless to say, you would have imagine how happy I was the whole time there.
After which, I went on to some free exhibition around the area and it was some interactive games. Not too bad, but the plot we were to follow was too childish for my liking.
As I still got some time left and I was too lazy and too cold to get out of the place, I went to the nearby Design Museum and I'm glad for the impromptu decision! Saw sone really nice art pieces and some were quite thought-provoking! To end my day there, I walked about 诚品 for another 2 hours, and that's so therapeutic (I don't know why though).

Stop 2 -- 中文系在台北之大团圆!
So a few of us who were in / near Taipei met for a steamboat dinner last night! There were much catching up and knowing how each school operates. This interaction was interesting and enriching since we don't hace much other interaction with the other universities around!
After dinnner, KaiQi brought Minyu and I to Shida night market and to visit her apartment and the other Chinese major who didn't attend the dinner.

In all I must say the night was fun. And pictures will be up soon!

P.s. I'm feeling so sleepy now as I embark on the 5 hr coach ride back to KS :(

Prelude -- 3 days before departure

I've been enjoying myself a lot for the past 2 days, not only because I'm almost done with all administrative issues for fee-paying, but also I got to watch the play I'd been waiting for months: 《如梦之梦》

This play made me realise one thing, whatever we've been through aren't that unique to us after all. We are but just part of this unbreakable spiral. Round and round we go, we think we are progressing away, yet in fact we are just getting more and more intertwined with one another. Perhaps this is what they mean by the "6 degrees of separation". It seems like everyone in this world is somewhat connected.

Oh, did I mention that this play was 8hr long? It was split into part 1 & 2 with a 2 hours long dinner break in between, hence I decided to go to the nearby River Hongbao while thinking on what to have for dinner.

Here's some of the pictures I took while visiting the exhibition on the floating platform. Yes, I know I am totally not dressed in the typical CNY fashion, but who cares. 

Today, I'm back to the area again, but because the crowd at River Hongbao was insane, and I have ZERO interest in the Chingay parade, I decided to go to Gardens by the Bay to enjoy the evening breeze. Coincidentally, I was in time for the lights and audio show at the super trees and I got a really good spot watching the 10 minute show! (Vivience felt so blessed #justsaying)

I totally enjoyed my me-time but now it's back to reality: I need to PACK :( Nevermind, I shall rant about it another day then. Time for me to crash!
