Slower Day

Well yesterday, I went to a bookstore called Eslite, which really close to Taipei 101, apparently the bookstore is quite famous, and really isnt 100% a bookstore, because it has many other little stores in there ranging fro clothes to little trinkets and apparently a ferrari store?!?! o.O that one shocked me haha. So the purpose of going to the bookstore was becuase my mom wanted to visit some old friends there, they had some cake and tea while i wandered about the 8-10 story bookstore...it was huge!! and at the same time very cool :) so we ended up eating there as well. There was what I thought to be an all you can eat buffet, but turns out they price it by the weight of your plate of food...AND I HAD A LOT...people's plate normally dont come out of 200 NT...mines was almost 400 NT xP...so i was really full for the rest of that day haha. So after saying bye to my mom's friends, I really wanted to look around since we were around Taipei 101 and there is A LOT of stuff to shop around. I especially like New York New York cause their second floor is known as the 'creative design' floor, and all the stuff there is really unique and interesting. Though I havent gotten anything from there yet, rest assured I will be back and surely enough bags of stuff in my hands :) So that was that day.

Today was really the first slow day for me. Woke up this morning and played a bunch of gran turismo. I accompanied by grandma to go shopping at the neighboring city of muzha, called Shenkeng. I was really shocked, the place was quite rural, and yet what did I find? A used dealership with a mercedes SL, bmw m6, range rovers, porsches...i was like o.O why did i not bring my camera?!?!?! haha its all good though. So we had lunch over there ( we ate there last year too) and after buying 'stinky tofu' and other various things, we finally headed back. Then around three me and my mom went to out to get a cell phone so me and my bro can use it, we were unsuccessful at the one near Wanfang Hospital, didnt find the store we were looking for at Zhongxiao Fuxing either, so we ended up going back to around Taipei 101, to buy a cell phone we could use for our duration of time at Taiwan. I really wanted to go shop today, but my grandma wanted me to help her out with cooking some stuff that requires a little strength, so we headed back and here I am now. We're suppose to go shopping tomorrow cause my mom needs to find formal shoes for a wedding dinner thats coming up, and I'm gonna tag along and hopefully find something hehe.

O yeah, I've been helping my grandma around the house, I would like to note that I had to switch out a light bulb for one this one ceiling light, and the people who installed put the screws on the wrong way, or the it was a huge design flaw and ended up taking me two days to fix the light :P, then my grandma wanted to help her pick some papaya from her garden, and i accidently bent the ladder since it was made of aluminum LOL my bad.
