I'm BACK from the Expo NATAS travelfair.
And YEEESSSS IM GOING TAIWAN! Woohoo! 7days, departing 2nd Dec. With Five Star Tours. :D :D I can't wait. So I shall work hard now and hope I reap what I sow! Anyway its the first day of the travelfair at Expo and its already damn crowded. Here're some tipssss if you're planning to go to the fair!
1. Check out the booth that specifically promotes the country that you're planning to visit (eg. Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan..). The promoters there are much more passionate and accurate (well, its their home country anw). The man at Chan Brothers said its gonna be 5-10 degrees and we were like so shocked its gonna be so cold; while the Taiwanese lady said it would be at most 15 degrees, something like Genting. So its best to check out the individual country booths; they give good tips (such as the cheaper shopping night markets eg. Kaoshiung) and accurate information.
2. Preferably go to female promoters. The men (esp the older uncles) are just concerned with their commissions and can't be bothered with your questions. The females are much more informative; the lady at Five Stars Tours even went through the whole itenary with us with many interesting pictures/photos. While the man at SA tours just sat there and stared at us. WTH.
3. Don't only go to the big players (eg. Chan Bros, SA..), check out the small players. They do provide some good stuff the big players don't. Such as I'm going to stay at Dao Ming Si's house! Which is actually a huge 5 star spa resort which SA and Chan Bros do not offer. So yeah, check out the several itenaries and compare/contrast like in Bio. (and always remb to bring a pen!)
4. The early bird always catches the worm. Go early, where they'll offer more discounts and free goodies (eg. to the 1st 50 customers, 1st 100 ..), as they usually run out the last day. So, yeah its best to go there early.
And by the way the fair ends on Sunday if you want to check it out! :) Alright, back to reality.. the A's. :'( Nvm, Taiwan shall be my motivation now! Anyway, I LOVE Scissor Sisters. They have such great songs like Laura, Filthy/Gorgeous, Take Your Mama Out, Mary and their new song I Don't Feel Like Dancin'. Ironically this song makes me feel like dancin' :D
Wake up in the morning with a head like 'what ya done?'
This used to be the life but I don't need another one.
Good luck cuttin' nothin', carrying on, you wear them gowns
So how come I feel so lonely when you're up getting down?
So I play along when I hear that favourite song
I'm gonna be the one who gets it right.
You better know when you're swingin' round the room
Look's like magic's solely yours tonight
But I don't feel like dancin'
When the old Joanna plays
My heart could take a chance
But my two feet can't find a way
You think that I could muster up a little soft, shoop devil sway
But I don't feel like dancin'
No sir, no dancin' today
