I know I'm not leaving for another 2 days, but they involve (un)fun with relatives, so I'll just throw out my post now. Yes, I am counting this as an update. Bite me.

Now we will be putting this chronological order, but I cannot say what day is what because I frankly don't remember. (Also keep in mind that even though this is over the span of about a week, a lot of it was spent doing less than desirable things.)

We'll start off by citing how awesome Taiwan's food industry is. BEHOLD…

Instant noodles with REAL MEAT. Oh snap. It looks edible already. Also it tasted uunungghhgh good.

Next up GANDUM BASE TAIPEI.

Oh snap those are some hueg Gundams.

Lawl Stargazer kits. The Gundam series nobody cared about.

I WENT TO THE MEIDU CAFE. I DID IT. I WAS REALLY NERVOUS AND RELUCTANT, BUT IT REALLY DID HAPPEN.

This is Fatimaid cafe. One lousy picture that I managed to sneak. No pictures allowed. ;_; I didn't even get any of the maids in the picture, mission failed.
The whole 'no pictures thing' really shot a hole in my main reason to be there. I went due to lots of PEER PRESSURE and therefore pictures would be required to show my experience, as I had no intention of keeping it to myself.
-> RELUCTANT? WRY
Well, to be frank, I:
1.) Do not really consider myself an Otaku, and consider going into a MEIDU CAFE to be very much an Otaku thing-to-do.
2.) Worried about what stander-bys will think. (Yes, people I've never met, never will meet, and probably will never see again.)
3.) Worried about what the employees will think. (Yes, the maids who probably deal with much weirder people than me on a daily basis.)
4.) I'm not really into maids. Except Kohaku. Kohaku will kill your family.

Lastly all the goods I have obtained…

I'm not going to bother sorting through it until I get back, and I have no idea how I'm going to pack it all.
