Yeah, this has been coming so fast, but anyway, this Tuesday I'll be leaving for Japan for a couple of days, then going to visit my friend's family in Taiwan for a couple of weeks. Hopefully I'll have Internet there, so I'll update you guys if you want me to, heh. I really can't wait to hit up all those Taiwanese night markets, hehe. I bet I'll get so fat by the time I come home .

Wow Japan? I always wanted to go there! Good luck! Hey if you see kids with spinning tops in a small plastic arena or woks, can you tell me about it. They'll called Beyblades and I need to know what's up in Japan about it. You don't have to. Just asking... Well again, Good Luck and Have Fun!

Hapan. You MUST say "Domo Arigato" at least once, preferably to the guy who waits at the airplane-gates, or, Hondens, or whatever they're called over there.

Heh! I would like to go to Japan someday, mostly because of the technology and food. Y'know, their squid actually looks appetizing to me...even the live kind. @_@
...I'm a freak. ;D

Ummm... sorry, but this kind of irks me. Why does everybody keep mentioning Japan, and completely forgotten that I'm going to Taiwan? I'm actually a bit more excited to go to Taiwan because of their crazy night markets, and things aren't as expensive (on top of that, I can finally use my futile Chinese studies there). I hear the food is extremely cheap, too. Heh, you should all go and research on it or something. Japan just seems so mainstream, it clouds all the other countries in Asia... Other than that, heh. Thanks everybody for the wishes, and I hope to be replying soon after my leave .

Well... You know... the thing Tiawan is also known for is less than appropriate subject material.

Ooooh, damn you Teh, living my dream I've planned for over two years..Taiwan sounds fun too, maybe when I eventually go to Japan (Watch, I'll be 30-something when I finally go), I'll check out Taiwan and China too, Asian architecture and artwork and...*head spins* HATE YOU!!! XD Have fun, Teh, and dun get too fat, or you'll not be able to sit infront of your PC. Have fun, and remember how good it feels to have made me jealous! ^_^ *rifles through China Phrasebook* Zaijian! (Can't type the special characters..>.< Dangit.)

You are the choosen one, teh! :D Well, I'm sure Taiwan will be a great fun with those "night markets" (even if I'm unsure what is that xD), and it is a nice thing you can use your Chinese knowledge there (man, I can't understand how people can memorize those characters... they're too complex in my opinion... well, it is just me, and I'm sucking with learn the Japanese Katakana, what looks far easier than those stuffs what you send sometimes to dA). But Japan... hmm, the heaven of videogames = land of plenty XD *runs* My friend is in Japan at the moment, by the way. He is an interpreter :D And he bought an Electroplankton for me, yay XD So anyway, the most important thing that you have fun (hopefully)... and take a lot of photo! =)

Teh make sure you try dumplings there because you're getting the real deal!! (Unlike those those Chinese restaurants I'm mean they use barbecue pork!) Make sure you take pictures and buy lots and lots of "souvenirs" Ohh and here this weird fact I found: If you burp in a restaurant over there (a normal one!) the manager think it as if you really like the food... weird.

Hahaha, awesome! I'll make note of that . I've also heard similar, I think it's Vietnamese, but if you slurp the noodles really loud, it's a compliment to the noodle maker. Been making it a habit since . Don't worry, in Taiwan, I'll most likely be gone virtually every night to hit up as much of the night markets as possible, hehe. There's no way I can miss the dumplings. I'm getting rather hungry just thinking about it, because bao over there is like three for thirty cents, and I can't get enough of bao ! I'll be eating so much food like a true Yoshi!

FOOD!! Now that you talk about it, Asia makes the best noodles. Start slurping! Let's hope they're not too too covered in grease.
