嗚莎書：左，右腦

簡單的測驗－你是嗚嗚，嗚莎，莎嗚或莎莎。。

我是莎莎。。看了他們的見解。。hmmmz..not very true lehz..saying i'm a leader, succesful working woman..ermz..how can tt be? i wan to be 小女人..WAHAHA..most of the stuffs they mentioned..sounds more like XF..wahaha..been lookin out for 一公升的眼淚..din managed to find it but found my fav DORI books.heez..bought 2 of them heez..

resting in the shop..coz too tired from standing for 8hrs yest!! haha..with my painful shoes..back been aching too..haha..spear & i nua at one corner while meaniac & XF went to look for books..quite a couple of books that i wan to buy also..but too heavy to bring back..since wld be going 士林 later..nvm..can borrow from them..heez..

spear & i were hungry le..so we went to food court @ basement to get some snacks first..we bought 小南門的豆花+花生＋粉圓(NTD 45) & choc De Crepes(NTD 50) from 拿波利..my gosh..the dou hua is darn nice..very smooth & the sweetness is juz nice..not too sweet..the 粉圓 are very small & QQ..crepes is fragnant too..we nv taste crepes before..haha..funny right..din dare to try the more exotic taste like beef..kept to the safest..both of us were still not full..haha..darn lookin forward to 雞排..i wan my 愛玉冰 & 芒果冰!!! it was abt 5plus le..very dark..but time flies la..i think coz our day started late today..darn windy & cold..both of us rushed to mrt station..haha..too cold..due to some reason, we led the way..

alighted at 劍潭站。。士林夜市 is juz opp..BUT...our dear spear came here before dun recognise the place..saw the zhong zheng hao stall if u took the other exit from station..which is the wrong way..haha..finally saw the 毫大大雞排 shop..long queue but fast!..tot the uncle was queueing..even ask him if he's queueing for courtesy..then to find out tt he was giving out the plastic bag..haha..he juz happened to be juz behind the queue.haha..

famous stall in shilin..really big portion..bought 2..one for the trio (no seasoning..sianz) and one for us!!! darn excited..haha..each only for NTD 50..

the trio went to buy 大餅包小餅 (salt & sweet onez) & also 天婦羅..we ate them at 統一牛排..we ordered 鐵板T 骨牛排 (NTD 250) & 魚排 (NTD 150)..they were served with corn soup & bread..meaniac thinks the soup is too much of milk taste..but i dun mind..so i finished them lohz..

牛排 & 魚排 were served with marconi, egg & pepper sauce..not bad..but fish got bone..wahhaa..i juz had the luck to eat bones...so i'm scared..雞排 is darn nice..hot & thick..very cripsy!!! seasoning was darn gd..really cannot compared to the one in spore..they come with bone so to the end, it wld be rather difficult to eat..not much meat..大餅包小餅 were not bad too..popiah skin with 小餅 filling..i prefer the sweet onez..the filling was black sesame..the salty onez.not much flavour..but i still like my 雞排 the best!!

we shopped ard..saw how pple catch prawns using like net lohz..interesting..we bought 棺材板 (NTD 40)..pork filling..it's juz bread with pork meat, mayo & veg..so spear won;t eat much..coz got mayo..not a very exotic onez..as wat infer from the name..we bought 白玉苦瓜汁..spear said it's a muz buy here..surprisingly, it's not tt bitter..not too bad..

we headed to shopping area..feeling darn ful..so much meat juz now..haha..my back aching again..coz of the heavy books in my bag..saw dogs in pet shops..darn cutez..took a pic w/o knowing cannot take..oopz..

very crowded..but still cold..i bought a pair of shoes..velvo onez..(NTD 390)..quite nice..cant see this type of shoes in spore..the last pair i got was darn old le..cannot wear le..but i still can't bear to throw it away..=( 

got the mini projector too..bought ultraman, conan & mario..heez..supposed to be NTD 39..but every 10 bought has 1 more free..so we combined forces..haha..quite nice..

bought gloves (NTD 150) and scarf (NTD290) for tmr..coz news kept saying that it might hit low tempt..yest hit 10C in taipei..lowest it's 9C..淡水 was 8！！！so better equipped ourselves ahz.haha..was shivering yest manz..

bought 胡椒餅..not too bad..esp for a cold day like this..so much pepper..hot!! was trying to catch some keychain..the machine onez.but i juz dun haf this kind of luck..JA got one so easy..got another for XF..i also wan..but failed..haiz..then another round when we were heading back..XF managed to get one at first try..but me?!! CANT..everybody is laughing at my luck..haiz..so sad..it's darn cutez..tried so many times..but to give up..haiz..in the end, i think XF saw me so upset..she gave one of hers to mine..coz she got wat she wanted..thks!!! but still..upset abt my luck manz..

i was telling them tt they haf ads on this kind of things also..darn weird..we were watching news this morning then came the ads..like phone calls by guys to check if they offer the service..then got watz young hswife advertising herself..weird..they are rather open manz..not like spore..
