It doesn't metter anymore......it's gone...

 

         So XiaoMa and Roddick decided to go for a lunch in Hsimending.
They bought two cups of coffee when they walked into the Songshan train station cuz they still felt chilly.
"Will we transfer the MRT after taking the train to Taipei train station ?It's only one stop to get there", asked Roddick.
"I'm fine" , said XiaoMa.
"Maybe we can take a little walk form Taipei station to Hsimen station. Are you cool with that ?" , asked Roddick.
"Cool ! , Let's do it !" , said XiaoMa.
After the big two boys got in the Taipei main train station , they took a easy walk toward the Hsimending.
"I wanna make a phone call to my friend." said Roddick.
Cuz Roddick didn't talk to her on the phone last night and he wanted to see her.
"Hey, it's me !What are you up to? " , asked Roddick.
"What? You are dying your hair in a hiarsalon? I wanna see you !That's not lucky.O....kay , see you next time , ciao !" , said Roddick.
It was not so lucky that Roddick wanted to see someone but he couldn't !!
After 20 minutes , XiaoMa and Roddick were closed to Hsimending and Roddick said "Hey , do you remember your brother and you go to the DJ shop to fix the broken machine six months ago? It's just over there !!"
Why ? Roddick showed his brother how to get the shop cuz Roddick studied in university for 4 years in Taipei and his university was just very close there!!!
"Oh ~Yes.....It's here.I remember that !!" , said XiaoMa.
Then Roddick tried to find the restaurant which was very good in hot pot with Korean style.
After another 5 minutes , they found the restaurant finally !
"I know this restaurant !" , said XiaoMa.
"You know this one ? Wow....." , said Roddick.
"I've been here to eat." , said XiaoMa.
Both of them ordered the kimchi hot pot with a little spicy for lunch and Roddick
also ordered a plate of preserved eggbean curd.
Why did Roddick choose the restaurant ?Because he usually goes there with his classmates when they hang out.
They were in the 2nd floor to enjoyed the meal.
"I'll show you the place we play pool all the time." , said Roddick
"Sure...why not?" , said XiaoMa.
When they finished the hot pot , Roddick took XiaoMa to the place "Crazy Horse".

"I must be here when I am in Taipei" , said Roddick.
Roddick and XiaoMa walked into the basement one and XiaoMa said :"Wow....That's so huge here !!"
Cuz there are more than 60 tables in Crazy Horse and you also can play computer games or surf internet there.
"Okay , let's get outta here" , said Roddick.
"Don't we play pool for a little while , it's just almost 1:30 pm" , asked XiaoMa.
"Okay....Let's play pool now , I'll show you what games we usually play." , said Roddick.
"We usually play pool with poker to gamble , but just both of two ppl. So we won't play this time.I'll teach you next time after we come back" , said Roddick.
"Now we play "14-1 , not 40-1"" , said Roddick.
Roddick has to emphasize the prounuciation. Why ? XiaoMa must understand if he is reading this article.
After Roddick tought XiaoMa the rule , and they decided to play till 30 balls.
The game was very competitve between Roddick and XiaoMa while they were playing.
Finally XixoMa defeated Roddick with one more ball.
The scoreboard was 30 : 29 !!!

"It was 2:50 now.Should we leave ?" , asked XiaoMa.
"Sure , let's go !" , said Roddick.
You can see those two guys who were taking their backpacks leaving form Hsimending to the main bus station.
On their way to the main bus station , they passed by a Family Mart and XiaoMa stopped.
"Hey Roddick , I'm thirsty and wanna take some water or drinks." , said XiaoMa.
"Oh ya...we don't drink any water or drinks today", said Roddick.
XiaoMa bought two bottles of beverages.One was rose tea , the other was water.
Roddick only bought one bottle of green tea.
"I never drink the bottle of rose tea." , said Roddick.
"Oh...wanna try ? Try it ! " , said XiaoMa.
XiaoMa passed the bottle of rose tea to Roddick.
"Umm....Not bad !" , said Roddick.
Then they got the main bus station. It was 3:10 p.m.
There were so many ppl in the bus station.
Of course XiaoMa and Roddick were not so surprised cuz today was new year day !!
Then they were waiting in line to buy the tickets to go back.
"Oh....I almost forgot.How much does the room cost one night ?" , asked Roddick.
"The room is NT1000 one night." , said XiaoMa.
So Roddick paid all for the bus tickets (Amount NT600) and gave NT200 back to XiaoMa.
It was 3:15 p.m.So they were waiting for the Ubus for 3:40 p.m.
When the got to the bus and their seat number was no.21 and no.22.
It looked  the two seat next each other , but actually not.
"WTF....the booking clerk is stupid????" , said Roddick.
"May I exchange the seat with you ?" , asked Roddick.
Roddick asked a girl who got the ticked no.23 and exchanged the seat with her.
"This is the second time to ask a person." , said Roddick.
"Ha ha...ya....you always ask ppl to exchange the seat !!" , said XiaoMa.
On their way home , they watched a movie on the bus but didn't remember the name.
"XiaoMa , the actor looks very familiar, but I can't remember who he is.", said Roddick.
"Oh....He is Kevin Spacey !!!" , said Roddick.
"Ha ha.....ya...He is !!" , said XiaoMa.
Both of them were very tired and fell asleep.
After 2 hrs and 30 minutes , they came back to Feng-Yuan at 6 p.m.
"I have a day off tomorrow but I think I will go to work tomorrow morning." , said Roddick.
"I'm still in the holidays !! Haha.." said XiaoMa.
"Okay....If you wanna do something tomorrow , give me a call !" , said Roddick.
"Sure , I'll give you a call tomorrow." , said XiaoMa.
"Anyways thank you for hanging out with me for these 22 hrs" , said Roddick.
"Haha....It's me , not you to say thank you." , said XiaoMa.
"I'll call you , see you tomorrow !" , said XiaoMa.
"You too , Adios amigo !!" , said Roddick.

                                                                                                                                       The End

When they got in "Tone 56 Live Bar",they chose a table to stay.
Cuz it was almost 2:30 am , the band was over.
XiaoMa ordered two of Corona with lemon.One was for himself and the other was for Roddick.
"I wanna go to washroom and make my phone back by charger.", said XiaoMa.
Everybody there was chatting with their friends and drinking beer or wine for fun.
The bunch of ppl there enjoyed their time and took some pics in 2 hours.
Finally they decided to go to another bar near the National Taiwan Normal Universtity.
They went there by taxi and it was almost 4:30 am.
There was a person who was pretty drunk .
Guess whom?That was XiaoMa !!
They ordered some meals and set on the coach except for XiaoMa cuz he was talkin' to

other ppl outside for a little while.
"I'm XiaoMa from Feng Yuan , how about you ?" , asked XiaoMa.
"I'm Lisa form Taipei , nice to meet you" , said Lisa.
"Where are you going now ?", asked XiaoMa.
"We are going to Mt.Ali to see the sunrise.", said Lisa.
"Would you wanna join us?", said Lisa.
"Umm......I think ...No, thanks.But thank you for your invitation.", said XiaoMa.
After 10 minutes , XiaoMa said goodbye to them and came into the bar with Jeff and his friends but he seemed he couldn't find where they were.
"Oh , I'm pretty tired now." said Jeff. And Roddick also felt exhaustd.
The bunch of ppl said goodbye to each other and it was almost 5 am.
A friend wanna go home by walking herself but XiaoMa and Roddick decided to walk her home cuz they couldn't leave her behind.
Then XiaoMa and Roddick walked with her till she got home and they caught a cab to go

back to the hotel at 5:30am.

After they got in Songshan train station and XiaoMa was almost drunk.
"Are you sure you know where the hotel is?" , said Roddick.
"Yes, I am sure.Don't worry about it !", said XiaoMa.
XiaoMa and Roddick sought the hotel for a little while but they found nothing.
They decided to ask the from desk in the Songshan train station.
"Excuse me sir , have you heard this hotel?",XiaoMa tried to explain to him in Chinese.
But the guy couldn't understand what XiaoMa said and then Roddick asked the guy.
The guy had no idea where the hotel was.
"Oh....I can take my SIM card to put in your phone then I can make a phonecall to my coworker.", said XiaoMa.
Cuz XiaoMa's phone was dead again.
They got the message from XiaoMa's coworker and the address of the hotel was ""Sec 4 BaDe Rd 6xx ."
Finally they found the hotel and went to the 8 floor to take a rest.

It was 6 am in the early and cold morning.Just only 11 degreeds outside !
XiaoMa was very suprised when they got into the room "No. 879".
Do you know what happened ??
XiaoMa thought there will be two beds in the room but actually not.
His coworkers told him there are two beds there but only a double bed !!
XiaoMa and Roddick didn't care much at all.
They were pretty tired and hit the hey quickly after brushing.
XiaoMa fell asleep quickly but Roddick didn't.
Why did Roddick still wake up ? Maybe he just thought too much about something.
Roddick woke up many times while they were sleeping.
When Roddick was sleeping , XiaoMa woke up suddenly and thought.
"Where am I now ? Oh Yeah, I was sleeping with Roddick now", said XiaoMa.
Both of them felt very cold cuz they just have a blanket to cover their shivering bodies while they were sleeping.
Why did they torture themselves ? Cuz they didn't know there was another quilt in the walk-in closet.
Kinda silly , right ?

After 5 hours , XiaoMa and Roddick woke up and said good morning to each other.
"What a cold room !!" , said XiaoMa and Roddick.
Of course they complained that cuz they were silly !!
"Do you know what time we have to check out?", asked Roddick.
"Maybe 12 o'clock", answered XiaoMa.
"Knock knock " "Who's there ? " said Roddick.
It was a girl and Roddick didn't know her.
"Candy , is that you ?", said XiaoMa.
Candy was one of XiaoMa's coworkers.
"Hey, Candy,why is this room so cold???", asked XiaoMa.
"Yeah yeah yeah....so cold even now...", said Roddick.
Candy didn't see where their quilt was and only saw the white blanket.
"OMG , don't  you guys know the quilt was in that closet?", Candy was laughing.....
"Sssssshhhhhit ! WTF !!!", said XiaoMa and Roddick.
Now you know how silly XiaoMa and Roddick were  !!
So Roddick decided to take a shower first and then XiaoMa went back to sleep for a few minutes before they checked out !
When they took their shower and were ready to leave , Betty , who was another XiaoMa's coworker ,checked out for them.
It was 12 o'clock but XiaoMa and Roddick still felt a little chilly.

After the fireworks , XiaoMa and Roddick were looking at thoes ppl leaving form Taipei City Hall and didn't wanna follow them to go back.
"What do we gonna do?", asked XiaoMa.
"I know we can't just go back to the hotel", said Roddick.
"I'm thirsty and wanna grab a beer now",said XiaoMa.
"There, it's Seven-Eleven !",said Roddick.
"It's too far.",said XiaoMa.
Roddick tried to call his friend and wanna see her cuz he knew she was here tonight.
After trying many times , Roddick connected with her finally but still had bad connection.
At the same time XiaoMa also tried to call his friend , Jeff , but his phone was almost dead.
So XiaoMa told Roddick the number to save in Roddick's cellphone.
On their way to a bar , they passed by many ppl and suddenly "Wait", said XiaoMa.
XiaoMa turned aruond and walked to those ppl.
"You look very familiar.....Are you from.....?"asked XiaoMa.
"I'm form Quesnel and you are......"said XiaoMa.
"Oh ya....How do you know ??"said the girl.
"I saw you before !!"Said XiaoMa.
And......balabala......Roddick didn't hear their conversation very clear.

Then XiaoMa and Roddick kept going and wanna find a place to saty.
Along some streets , they only saw two stuffs.
"Now there are only two stuffs,one is ppl , the other is garbage", said Roddick.
"I remember there is a bar near the cinema", said Roddick.
"Maybe I also remember it's there", said XiaoMa.
These two guys were still trying to find the bar.
About 15 minutes later , they arrived the cinema and walked into the building and found the bar to saty.It was called "In House" !
XiaoMa and Roddick were very happy cuz they could drink some beer.
But actually not......."Miss....Give me two Heineken", said XiaoMa.
"Sorry....We have no Heineken any more tonight...", said the waitress.(Of course, she spoke Chinese.) And the waitress tried to find some if they had stock.
XiaoMa and Roddick were still waiting and waiting......
"Let's go.There is no beer we want here", said XiaoMa.
The two guys walked out the "In House" , "I wanna go to the washroom", said Roddick.They were going to there and being relax.......
"I wait for you outside", said XiaoMa.
XiaoMa changed his clothes and wore his black leather jacket.
Whan Roddick went outside , he didn't see XiaoMa and kept walking out to the building.
Roddick felt very strange and turned around back to the building again to find XiaoMa.
"Oh...you are here" , said Roddick.
Maybe XiaoMa changed his leather jacket and Roddick didn't recognise him.
That's why they missed each other on that moment.

When they walked out , they saw the "High Life convenient store" and bought two Heineken.
Now Roddick's phone was ring and he passed it to XiaoMa.
"Jeff ,where are you now"??, said XiaoMa.
"I'm in the Shin-Yi St." , said Jeff.
Roddick also heard the sound "Shin-Yi " but didn't know where it was.
"Shin-Yi St.",said XiaoMa..They tried to find the "street" !!
After10 minutes , they got to the "Sec3,Shin-Yi St." and "Oh.....It's Shin-Yi Rd.Not street ! No wonder I never heard" , said Roddick.
"How to say Sec.3 in Chinese" , asked XiaoMa.
"It's ....3段" , said Roddick.(When XiaoMa reads the word , ha can practice to pronounce it again.)
"Hey , Jeff....we got here finally.", said XiaoMa.
The two guys met Jeff , his girlfriend , his sister and his sister's boyfriend.
They sit in a cafe' outside and chatted a lot.(Pls check the first pic !)
About one o'clock , they decided to go to a bar which was in the "Sec 3 Minquan E Rd."
(When XiaoMa reads this again , he probably could pronounce it in Chinese very well !!)
What's wrong with those taxi ?
No one wanna stop...it was very rare to see this situation but very common in New Year's Eve.
When they wanna take another road to take the taxi , XiaoMa and Roddick missed Jeff them....
"Where are you now ? Raise you hand !!", XiaoMa was talking to Jeff on the phone.
Roddick also looked for where they were , but he sill couldn't find them.
A few minutes later XiaoMa turned around and saw them finally.....They were across from the road.
XiaoMa and Roddick got together with them and they still tried to catch a taxi.
They saw a vendor which sold beers and of course they were very happy !!
"Give me 3  bottles of beer" ,said XiaoMa.
Why did they buy 3 bottles ? Cuz buying 3 and get 1 free .....
Then XiaoMa drunk very quickly and went back to buy another one.
Actually XiaoMa was lucky cuz he just bought one more and got one free.
At that moment Roddick saw two guys who were speaking French or German and one was pretty drunk and the other is supporting him.
Jeff took the first taxi with his girlfriend and sister but XiaoMa , Roddick and sister's boyfriend were still waiting...
5 minutes later they finally got to the taxi to the bar on Sec 3 Minquan E Rd..
But it was not so lucky , they were stuck in a traffic jam.(Pls check the secod pic !)
The taxi driver didn't waste his time cuz he had a cigarette when they were stuck.
Then he stuck his cigarette on the hood and went back into the car to drive.
It's kinda very cool , isn't it ?
After 20 minutes, they got there to meet Jeff and went to the bar together.

 

 

After work about 6:15pm , Roddick bought the train ticket form Fong Yuan to Song Shan(8:37pm to 10:56pm) in Fong Yuan train station.
Then XiaoMa gave him a call and said "I wanna go to Taipei 101 to see the fireworks".
In the first place they are going to see the fireworks on the roof of the hotel they have booked in Song Shan.
"Are you serious? I'm afraid we won't have enough time." said Roddick.
"But we can try it !", said Roddick.
When XiaoMa and Roddick got into the train at 8:44pm(Actually the train delayed 7 minutes), they start discussing what they are going to do.

"Do you take any books here?", asked Roddick.
"No, but I have this one", said XiaoMa.
XiaoMa took his rubik cube form his backpack and showed to Roddick.
"Wow.....What's that ! I haven't seen it for a long time!", said Roddick.
"Are you good with rubik cube?", asked Roddick.
"One minute and forty seconds is my best", said XiaoMa.
"That's 100 seconds", said Roddick adorably.
"Haha, One hundred seconds sound better", said XiaoMa.
Then XiaoMa tought Roddick patently how to solve a rubik cube.
"This is front, up,down,left and right side"
"Fi U Li Ui , Ri Di R D" said XiaoMa.

There was a young boy who is looking at XiaoMa and Roddick how to solve the rubik cube at the same time and Roddick knew the boy was looking at them.
A few minutes later , XiaoMa was competely finished the rubik cube and the boy clapped for them.
XiaoMa turned away to look at the boy and the boy put his hands down quickly and pretended nothing happened.
It must be hilarious when you guys see this plot !!
XiaoMa and Roddick never took a nap or rest and still were chatting till the train arrived in Taipei.
Around 11 pm , they arrive in the Taipei main train station and transferred to the MRT quickly.
OMG.....ppl mountain ppl sea !(Pls check the first pic !)
The two big boys didn't care so much and got the ticket to the train.
"I'm afraid we have no time to get there" , said Roddick
XiaoMa and Roddick just had 45 minutes before the fireworks started.

Actually XiaoMa and Roddick were lucky cuz the train they waited for was an empty train.
At the train they still didn't have much time.
At the same time XiaoMa and Roddick heard this train won't stop in the Taipei City Hall station.
"How do we do , the train won't stop the station which is near by 101?" , asked XiaoMa.
"That's the $ 64000 question" , said Roddick form his English book.
They had to make a decision which station they wanna get off.
Then they decided they were going to get off the Sun Yat-Sen Momerial Hall station.
"Do you think we can get  there on time?" asked XiaoMa.
"I have no idea but I believe we can make it", said Roddick.
After XiaoMa and Roddick walked out to the Sun Yat-Sen Momerial Hall station , they only had 27 minutes to get there.

"Let's go go go , hurry up........"
They saw the high and colorful building and ran toward it !
"Hey , Roddick!This way" , said XiaoMa.
"No no no, that way , come on" , said Roddick.
You can see the two guys were running so fast and passing by many ppl.
They ran across the Sun Yat-Sen Momerial Hall and Roddick looked at his watch many times.
Finally XiaoMa and Roddick were in the Taipei City Hall and stopped to look around.
"This singer is A-Mei", said Roddick.
"We have to find a good place to stay and I don't wanna saty a place which has smoke when the fireworks starts" , said Roddick.
At that moment XiaoMa weeded a little grass and measured which direction the wind came form.
But it seemed useless.
And these two guys looked up at the sky and saw the cloud running.
"That's way we can go....", said Roddick.
XiaoMa and Roddick stayed in a group which has 70 thousand ppl and were start pushing them to find a good place to view the fireworks.

Finally the two guys stopped in a small place and said"we made it, we made it !!"
"We made it !!"said XiaoMa.
"I don't wanna make you disappointed" , said Roddick.
Now they still had the last 10 minutes.
They started to prepare their camera to br ready to take the video.
"10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1...Happy New Year......"
All ppl there said the same words to celebrate this moment !
Of course XiaoMa and Roddick also said "Happy New Year" to each other after the fireworks ended in 188 seconds.

(Pls check the second pic !)
