And I repeat, Seow and Sing Ying are here. Well, I repeat it in English, and the reason why I'm typing this in English is simply because I feel like it. To 010 and Crystal, all these megapixels should make up for the lack of photos previously. :)

And so, the two girls came to our school for some serious eating before ZOO...

We had beef noodles

Then jiaozi and guoties

Next, we hopped on the bus eagerly for our zoo trip!

Presenting to you the Taipei Zoo, cheap cheap only. About Sgd2.50?

Well, Jiamin seems to choose the most random spots for photo-taking, and she loves rocks as backgrounds. So I decided to play along.

And seriously, I do read the fun facts, sometimes aloud...I turn into a little kid when I'm at the zoo and I refuse to grow up. And thank you very much, I know I'm 21 years old.

Little deer playing peek-a-boo there.

I couldn't stop complaining about the fact that I left my zoom lens in the room.

Trying to be stupid and fierce.

Huge black bear.

Monkey's red buttocks. :)

We spent like ages at the monkey enclosure, I don't know why...

We were amused by this lone duck sailing along leisurely around the monkeys.

I think this one looks really scary. Almost a man's face.

:)

Butterflies frenzy.

And if Miss Lai is reading this, this is the closest to a hot hunk I can get you. HAHA.

HALLO, Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan, pleased to meet you.

Woohoo, actually it was a no photo-taking kind of thing.

We didn't know we need to get queue numbers to see the famous pandas. But in the end, the staff let us in because Seow exclaimed that she was here in Taipei for the pandas.

But we only managed to catch a fleeting glimpse of Yuan Yuan........'s butt. Haha. Tuan Tuan's off day maybe. Or maybe they take turns.

Well, one reason I don't really fancy zoos is because the environments they're kept in are sometimes quite artificial. And they get sick. You see animals pacing around, back and fro. And you see butts. They're....repressed.

Well, the nocturnal animals are worse off. They have to face night in the day, and night at night too, if you get what I mean. SO NOT NATURAL.

F***ING SQUIRREL. AHAHAHA.

More monkeys

My favourite zebras!

Cool and stylish animals.

And I realised I have stripes to match :)

Mongolian horse.

And a fake penguin.

There was a temple procession on the streets when we came out of the zoo.

We went to GongGuan for dinner. Yummy steamboat.

Well, today is the official day I return to Gossip Girl-watching. And I see tha same bandage dress Joanne Peh wore for Star Awards on Blair in ep 19. And I think Blair wears it better. Now for a People.com style "Who do you like it on better?" poll:



I think it has a lot to do with curves. Well, Blair could fill this dress more nicely.

Anyway, this evening, it was frivolous blogging, Gossip Girl-watching, 8days-reading and sinful eating.

Reward for....me being a good host, for finishing my reports on time, and for more reasonable and flawless excuses.

HAHA. Always time for a little break.
