Friend Exchange!





So I made this new friend, Brian 'Nightwolf' Chien. He was new in Plano and only here for the summer doing an internship. He randomly added me on Facebook and we started talking. Sadly, I was going to leave for Taiwan soon, so I wouldn't be able to take him around, but I told him that I'd recommend some of my friends to take him out and about. So we only met up for one day. And I introduced him to my friend Thanh. This was the day that the Dallas Mavericks won the 2011 NBA Championships! :) Just saying! And so here we are. Brian on the right, Thanh in the middle, and you got Tyler there on the left.

 New random friend through the many wonderful uses of Facebook. He's also from Hsinchu, Taiwan which is where my mom is from!

































 And now here I am in Taipei Taiwan meeting one of Brian's friends that he recommended! Isn't that cool? It's like a friend exchange! Her name in Ying! She took me to go eat this really good ramen noodle place in Gong Guan! Her ice cream was a fail! XD
She's such a sweet girl! :) I'm glad to have met her. Thanks Brian!


Our neighbors downstairs have this silly looking cat that looks mad all the time! >:[

He's mad atchu! Haha..


























He really didn't like the heat outside, so happy to be inside with AC! Poor doggy!

Stay tuned for more~

Haircut


My dad. Always eating. I can't stop laughing at his expression. LOL


New haircut. This is on a good day. When I just took a shower and have some make-up on. But usually I look like a silly kid. 

Eating THE BEST Peking Duck in Taipei~ You know it's good when it's cut right in front of you and also done by the owner himself!


























Ahhhhh!!!! So good! :9

The Start


On route to Toronto, Canada! A Short 3 hour plane ride with nothing to eat. AA sucks.


Spanish Tapas = Asian Dim Sum. 


Uncle Herman and his son Richard! THANKS SO MUCH! :)


Tim Horton's are EVERYWHERE in Canada! It's like the equivalent to our Dunkin Donut's almost.


Missisauga City Hall. Built to look like a farm/barn to keep traditional culture.


Marilyn Monroe Building in Missisauga, Ontario. The guy who designed it won a international competition! He's Asian!


Look at those curves!


On the shoreline of Lake Ontario. CN Tower in the background!


CN Tower up close!


My memory is horrible. Forgot what this was called. But it's like protruding out of the old building. Pretty cool!


O Canada, O Canada!


Upgrade to business class on Cathay Pacific! BOOYAH!


SUPER DUPER
