So, I had the oppurtunity to go the Computex in Taipei. It was a tiring journey with transit to HK first. Delays due to storm and by the time we reached the hotel room, it was 10pm.
Took quick shower and walked out to check out the streets. It was not a good idea I guess because along the way, (looking for 7eleven) to buy smoke supply, bumped into like three different nightclubs and they were so annoying. When they see foreigners, all they think is you are there for some fun? helllooooo...
Bought my ciggies, and a can of beer....just wanted to try the chinese beer. :p the next morning got up at 8am, went for the free breakfast downstairs, then left to the hyatt (where the exhibition was) around 11.30am. Went straight to Nero room which was like on the first floor, like a penhouse like that with a hugeeeeee balcony over looking taipei 101! it was huge! you can have a bbq party there..
Then around 2pm went walking through the exhibition. many interesting stuff there. one that caught my eye was the watch-phone. it's a watch and a mobile phone. the design was cool too, i don't mind wearing it if it is in our market.
Another one was the ipod-speaker-dancing-soft-toy ahahha, yes it is exactly what it means. You but the soft toy on top of the ipod speakers and the thing sings and dances to the beat of the song! incredible!
And then there were the dancers on stage and all...some were freaking hot! and some were like really? thats all you can find?
It was around 7pm we headed over to the hotel back. i tido jap bcos my legs were killing me! got up around 9pm and left to have dinner. Jim said we shall go to this place, ruth's chris steak house. If anyone goes to taipei, you have to go eat here..incredibly delicious food. i had lamb and martini, shaken not stired. :p the price was abit on the expensive side but it was all worth it.
They had the best cremebrule..it just melts in your mouth..ahhhh
Next day, i got up at 7am, went down for breakfast. and the day started. there was another show at another place that you need to take the free feeder and go. So, went there, met few malaysians..i know they are malaysian because they kept using lah at the end of all their staements :)
Got the chance to go to taipei101. Incredible technology. They claim they have the world's fastest lift, trust me it was fast. the top of the lift got like space deco which plays along with some music...damn nice.
It didnt feel that tall though, i think klcc felt taller. and yes, i have been to the top of klcc, don't be jealous ah! :p
Then came down, camerawhoring there and here while waiting for our meeting with nero officials at 6pm. Jim wanted to meet up with steven since he was down from australia too. so met him around 5pm til 6pm , then rush to the nero meeting. after the meeting went for dinner at a korean bbq place, japanese loves korean food, i dont mind it either..
Then, balik hotel, i was sleept off straight away. jim called to the room and woke me up at 6.30am! need ot go for breakfast and catch a bus back t the airport. then, see see reached airport too earply pulak. so, went around the airport, didnt buy anything...:( no money..
Then went to the boarding area and started camera whoaring again...hahahaha
Reached KLIA around 7.30pm got the chance to take the sunset pic! it was nice. then by the time i reached back home it was 10pm, and slept...end.
