TERRIBLE PHOTOS
i just looked at my photos from taiwan and they are for some reason, extremely terrible.
high iso + imperfect exposure = crap. i've been having a lot of trouble lately getting the right exposure. i hope this doesn't go on for too much longer. focus wasn't spot on either... i'm going to start bringing around the 80-200 which usually focuses spot on. i hope my film turns out better...
due to popular demand, there are more photos of me stolen from other people.

we talk in maths
wed morning i went to taiwan. i hung out there for about 10 hours before 6 girls came to hang out with me. we went to our ghetto hotel, then off to the kaishek memorial. it was ok. then we ate some foood! the taiwanese version of a spring roll with like 10 different things in it mmm! then we went to this temple, it was a nice looking one. then we went to a night market where i feasted on fried pork chop, fish balls, and my favorite fried squid!
friday we went to yang ming shan national park. it was alright. we had mochi balls there. then we went to beitou where we swam with very old men in hot springs. we had a forgetable dinner at a hotel.
saturday was spent at keelung where we went to this rock like park, and a pagoda in a cave. that was nice.

a lot of street food was eaten like crab (not too fresh), fried squid (not as good as before), but most importantly i had ice with condensed milk and strawberry sauce and strawberries which was delicious. we went back to taipei in the afternoon and went to a bakery where deliciousness was had including pinapple cakes. then we went to taipei 101 which is lame. we met up with alicia's cousin albert at taipei 101 where he took us to a delicious trendy restaurant Fifi perhaps. then he got us all into club luxi vip (short line and free most importantly free) it was about 22 US cover so we were happy about that. there was some odd drinking with taiwanese locals.
when we woke up on sunday and went to an amazing dumpling house, that is supposedly world famous. It was indeed that good. quite succulent! finally, we went to the famous national palace museum which blew.
my only regret about taiwan is never getting the fish sandwich on riceinstead of bread from mcdonalds that looked extremely intriguing.
anyhow when i got back from taiwan and my laptop was gone! oh noes. its probably an inside job but its not important. so i have no pscs2 =(. got photos but they might not go up for quite sometime.
