Yi Lan

Well today was a pretty exciting day, let see I didn't have a good night rest although i am slowly but surely adjusting to the time zone here getting more and more sleep from the first night here  at Taiwan. So basically, my aunt and grandma came up to Taipei around 6:30ish, and my uncle came around the same time from work, and there was a surprise visit from my eldest uncle as well late into the night. Well today, my grandma, my aunt, my mom and myself set off for Yi Lan, which is about and hour drive from Taipei. I'm not sure what the place was called, but we went to a place, or a park rather, that was set in the 1950's of Taiwan, so there was old roads and buildings which was pretty cool. There was a strip of about 30 stores that we spent most our time at. I got a shirt there, some decore for my dorm since a certain someone was criticizing my dorm for looking like a prison cell lol. I also got some stuff for friends there as well cause the stuff they had their were quite unique. The stores there were pretty awesome. In the midst of all this, my aunt mom and my grandma pushed me to do a photoshoot like thing where i dressed as an emperor and posed with swords and a fan. I gotta say that was definitely an embarrassing moment in my life. The outfit was old and beat up, I was pretty much blind without my glasses, and on top of that...i had to wear blush/makeup O_O....i was like holy wtf...but i endured it...i guess in a way it will always be memorable when i look back at it. I have to criticize their food too. It literally tasted like chinese medicine. Terrible. Their entertainment was good though, and the setting was quite beautiful. So, overall, I did enjoy my visit to Yi Lan. O yeah, we went to eat 'stinky tofu' afterwards at a night market. Just throwing that in. Well here I am now, exhausted. Probably why my grammar is so poor right now. Not sure whats going on tomorrow, but I'm sure it will be packed since its a weekend :)
