Golden Age Hotel Hsinchu

... markets located near local universities. The prices are reasonable since these patrons<br>cater to college students who generally do not have as much money. Generally speaking, Hsinchu does not have a night market in the traditional sense but if you head over to Tsing Hua University ...

... the guy just refused to let us in. We were crushed...here we had come all the way to see this club and found ourselves unable to get inside. We turned the corner and came upon this place called 'Playa'. We went inside (the bouncer here wasn't as picky about I.D...I think he would rather look at my dress than my I.D) and it turned out to be this total Hip/hop and Rap place...except with the highest concentration of Asian people you could imagine. Seriously....I think we ...

Visited a supplier in Hsinchu today. The ride from Taipei to Hsinchu took around one and a half hours. Let the hotel at 9.30am. We had lunch in a Hakka restaurant. Interesting food Hakka cuisine. Kinda mild; neither pungent or oily at all. Left Hsinchu back to Taipei at 5 pm. On the way back we passed the 101 Tower. Looks majestic in the dark with the lights on.

... because the last time that happened I couldn't sit down. The nurse warned me, however, that my arms would be really sore. I was thinking no big deal since I remember getting DT in one arm and hepatits B in another before entering high school. Even so, that couldn't prepare me for how much the shots hurt. I was also bleeding a bit since I couldn't staunch both of the punctures. When we were maybe 2 yards from the ...

... fellows. There are 87 operating rooms in Chang Gung Hospital. I spent most of the afternoon with Dr. Cheng watching a radial forearm free flap reconstruction of an oral buccal defect for squamous cell cancer resection. I noted numerous learning points that would have aided procedures that I had done earlier in my training. I also took many photos that I will leave out of the blog.

... of 89 steps, representing CKS's age of death and at the top are two 16 meter high and 75 ton entrance doors that lead to a huge statue of the man, guarded at all times by two soldiers, reminiscent of England's guards - they even train to not blink for their entire watch/shift! Overall, I thought it was a quite impressive display. After CKS, I subwayed to Longshan Temple, originally built in 1738, in honor of the Buddhist ...

... where my pearly throne should be. Very embarrased though there was no one there to witness, I propped myself awkardlly against the stall with one hand, and the other on my frightened and confused...self...above the laughing pit, and proceeded to **** all over myself. I wondered if my life was meant only to entertain whatever being it might be that disect's my sould after death, as I wandered the airport with tell-tale driplet's peppering ...

... the time I split up with them to join my friends at another local eatery, Cafe Grazie, a place we just found, but have fallen in love with because of its fine dining but at cheap prices AND it's Italian food, the rain was already down to a drizzle. We headed to the only night club in town, Cammie, and had ourselves a typhoon party! Still, here I am, at work this morning, because very unfortuantely, the typhoon lost it's speed and has ...

... and classes become fun. Taiwanese culture:they are definitely different from us, in tradition, eating habits, religous beliefs(which they don't necessarily practise), sense of humour(they just don't get ours and i just don't know what their's are), family values and such but will never truly be able to explain it. When you get there and you start living among them you feel the difference, its all around you but I can never find the words ...

... more of a fairytale) between Aerin and James (aka Trout). Aerin looked stunning, James spoke from the heart and Will spoke bollocks (only joking mate- it was a great speech containing the f word only every other sentence!). Most of the Hsinchu crowd were present which made for a great night. It also gave me a chance to introduce my parents to everyone, which they enjoyed, although they could only remember a handful of names the ...
