Day 1:
5 hrs on China Airlines! i din get window seat in the end, my sis stole it.. but China Airlines was good, they had loads of like downloaded CDs and movies! so i was listening to Gwen Stefani's The Sweet Escape on the plane.. i decided dat i loved her songs haha.. i managed to finish the entire CD! n den i watched 200 pounds beauty.. again xD.. n this show called Starter for 10. its a pretty weird show but oh wells.. n can u believe i ate bread for every meal! anw we reached taipei airport at night, arnd 8.. waited for the bus, embarrassed myself on the bus, n reached this Taoyuan hotel! its pretty okay i guess. i got a bed all to myself! my mom n sis shared the other bigger one.. heh.. den we went to see the night life! my mom started talking in her weird chinese accent again.. AGAIN. we ate fried chicken n soya beancurd.. den went to slp..


Day 2:
breakfast at the hotel kinda sucked. cuz we woke up late.. lunch was better though.. n den off we went to the airport again! bought this magnet thing as a souveneir, waited for 2 hrs, den set off to Seattle! it was the same facilities in this plane, so i listened to Ciara's CD, Fall Out Boy's CD, wang lihom's CD, a little of Beyonce n Missy Elliot n Jessica Simpson.. its so sad they dun hv jesse mccartney's CD.. den i watched this Shooter movie! it was a nice :D.. the plane's chair was quite uncomfortable though, so through the 12 hr flight i only slept like 1 hr? well we finally reached the airport.. grandpa got detained! his fingerprint wasnt clear or sth cuz too dry.. hahaha.. finally after like 1 hr we got our of there! met my uncle! 2nd time riding a Lexus.. haha, no luxury like that in spore! went to his hse, it was super big! n very cold, especially when the wind blows.. its 15 degrees i think.. my smart sis forgot to bring her jacket haha.. michael n megan are still kinda skinny n small.. i expected them to hv grown, but oh well. haha.. we played cards with them n sorta caught up a little.. den Nathan and Nicole came! nicole can talk now, n she's really cute.. well she sorta says random stuff all the time but still, CUTE :D so we played monopoly with them..

Day 3:
Went to the King's Country library! somehow the names here sound much cooler.. the library's really neat n clean.. n quiet.. so unlike spore libraries.. well i borrowed 3 books: the five people you meet in heaven, every woman for herself, Frankenstein! see im so hardworking, haha cuz i din buy frankenstein in spore so i cant do my lit hw.. so i hv to do it here! well u can find alot of books in Seattle's libraries.. unlike the library near my hse.. haha.. after dat, we went to Bellevue Square! see wad i said, the name sounds so cool! the shopping centre's so big! we ate this Cinnabon thing.. its really great! but expensive.. everything here is expensive.. somehow its like spore price just that u change the sign to US dollar.. i guess maybe ppl here earn more or sth, so its like normal to them.. den my mom went to try this shirt that looks nice.. she took size 8 n 10, tried, n it was too big! so i went out to take size 6, she tried, still too big! so there's only size 0 left.. she tried it, too small! so in the end she din buy.. haha.. saw this really cool art shop, but stuff there are yea, expensive.. in the end we bought Mrs Fields' cookies! 5 for $5.. US dollar, so its like the same price as spore.. n Seattle's Best Coffee for my mom, i dropped the coins into the coffee beans.. oops. haha.. so my mom decided to 'train' me by making me buy all the stuff we're gonna buy in the future.. im sry mom, ur daughter walked into a mirror b4.. haha.. after dat we ate dinner at the chinese restaurant, apparantly down here u hv to give a 15% tip in restaurants! den we came back n got high on pictionary..haha.. n scrabble..

Day 4:
Went to Michael n Megan's piano class to look.. my mom wants me to be inspired n work harder for piano but... sorta futile haha.. cuz michael's like a child prodigy or sth.. he plays at concerts n stuff.. well the class was really good, cuz its like a grp class n each person gets to perform for the class n 1 person is selected to comment on how the person can improve n stuff. yea so its aural n practical training all at once.. n the tcher has 3 grand pianos! so they could play like piano concertos together which is really cool.. he asked me to play a piece at the end but i couldn memorise my stuff, so well i missed this really good opportunity n im feeling guilty abt it.. haha.. after dat we went to Nathan n Nicole's hse.. told jokes on the way there.. its a pretty big hse as well, but smaller den michael's.. played pictionary again, nathan was like hyperventilating or sth.. haha.. but they're really funny.. den played monopoly again.. somehow they seem so interested in these games..

Day 5:
