In Shilin Night Market with some other YEP Students

by sander30. September 2009 16:06

Hey, today the title is very explaining right? I met some YEP Students again today.
Actually, I bumped into Fredrik and some of his new YEP friends in Ximending this Monday so I that's where I got some of the network I expand further today.

There were actually really a lot of people. I mean YEP's. Shilin night market wasn't really very populated because this is wednesday, but of course there were still a lot of people. I know you probably shouldn't go to shilin night market on fridays, saturdays or sundays, since it's quite overcrowded on those days.

It was quite chaotic for me today. There were really a lot of people moving around, splitting up and shouting at eachother through their cellphones whenever someone decided to jump out of the big group we were to get a drink or whatever. Also, I was not really feeling very safe because my mobile phone was only on 15% battery and almost out of money too, plus I didn't really know anyone. Only met a few of them this monday and talked with one on facebook before.

Just so you know, the sign in the background sais Japanese style Korean food. That's the kind of restaurant we went to. Luckily it's identity crisis made the food quite cheap. I paid just 100 NT$ for a dinner, and I was stuffed, actually. Not like I was about the explode of course, so right at the moment I'm writing this, I'm eating a quite delicious... some strange Taiwanese bread-thing with meat and stuff inside.

Hey, I did manage to get an almost sharp picture from the night market. (People walkt very fast.)

If you see people selling DVD's at a night market, you can be pretty sure it's actually pirated stuff.

Should've bought one of these shirts, really. It's in Japanese but still.

Back home in my room in Denmark, I have a pack of Originality Paradise. I'm not planning to make a collection just yet, though.

You can have a lot of fun in Shilin Night Market, really.

Okay, let me just finish this off with an unrelated funny picture I took this tuesday:

And that's all for today. Someday there's probably going to be a link from this blogpost to another article I am going to make about Shilin Night Market when I know a little more about it. For now: Live well, love well and mentality well, k?
