Day 1 (23/5/2011): Arrival

  Weeks after weeks of application process and days after days of packing, the much anticipated day has finally arrive.

  

  Woke up extremely early (at least I think it's EARLY) after only 3 hours of sleep! Gosh! I must be one of panda's close relative. Eye cream and BB cream werent good enough for covering my "can" look. Shivered throughout the whole shower, but not even the icy-cold water can diminish my anticipation to set foot in Taiwan.

Fast forward to LCCT...

  The LONG QUEUE! I was there before the check-in counter opened, but alas, too late as well. There are more of other early birds! I'm the slightly-late bird. Lolz..
 
  Oh well, this will be my FIRST time travlling to overseas alone. Not "Home Alone" but "Overseas Alone". Pray hard that everything will turn out fine.

  "We're soaring, flying..." HSM addiction. Haha.. Travelling alone is kinda boring even when I have my book with me. I can't say that I dislike AirAsia, nor I like it. It's just...plain. And the meal, err....no comment. OH ya, air turbulence happened quite a number of time. Throwin the plane left and right and worsen my headache!!! The 4 hours and 40 minutes on board is really a torture! How could time crawls at such slow pace?

  Eventually! The plane touched down at the wet and slightly-misty TaoYuan Airport. It must have rained heavily earlier. The drizzling continues for the whole of yesterday, cooling the night and I had a good night's sleep on my comfy fluffy princess bed.

  A whole-heartedly thanks to Maggie, Jia-Lin and Sam for picking me up at the airport and helping me around the busy Taipei city to my destination.How could we miss the opportunity to have this photo taken? We walked under the drizzle on a slippery floor, with vehicles speeding beside us and took 2 buses before we finally arrived.

Fast forward again... to my host family this time.

  The Cheng family is really nice. They are so soft-spoken, warm and kind-hearted. Their 2 sons, 1st and 6th grade respectively, are cute and active. Haha... Look at the room they prepared for me, so princessy!! And they also took the trouble to prepare toiletries for me and spent hours to set up internet connection for me. I really appreciate it!! Thank you!!!!

 After settling and arranging everything, it's almost 1am. So, what's more other than the bed???
