Jiufen!

Saturday night Amanda and I went to Jiufen. We hopped on a train from Taipei main and arrived at 6. From there we had to take a taxi to get to this adorable maze of local treasures lined with beautiful red chinese lanterns. I had another moment where I could cry. We went and drank high mountain Oolong tea on this quaint balcony and had an amazing conversation. We talked and talked till about midnight. Then found out we missed all the trains and there were no cabs to get us back home. Oops!

Lady Gaga's Teacup

Wow. Sometimes being a celebrity makes people do strange things. Lady Gaga has been spotted a lot recently with a floral teacup, like walking around the city and whatnot. She says it reminds her of being at home, and she does it so she does not waste paper or plastic cups. Honey, there are more normal ways of saving the environment. You look retarded and you have a butter-face.
