Ms. Hai-Tang

The first typhoon this summer just hit and totally covered this island today. We heard of the news last week and until sunday morning taipei still had a beautiful blue sky and same summer heat. So even if my friends cancelled the paintball game and the beach plan, me and dave still went to keelung seashore to watch the waves, which could perform much better splashes than ever at typhoon days.

So we were wellcovered by the raincoat and standing on the top of the cliff, aginst the 10 grade wind and rain drops hitting on the faces, watching the waves spanking the rocks underneath and then coming huge splashes. It was amazing and we were even expecting some bigger ones over 3 stories height but too bad there wasn't any.

We actually felt typhoon until we were on the way back to taipei in the evening. The rain poured in a sudden and it's like it'd never end. But 10 mins later everything stopped and what you could see was only the drops from the roof edge and puddles. I was invited to a BBQ party in shiji so I dropped off the train in the middle of the way. The party started with quietness and some funny talks and sipps of cocktails, then someone brought up the dice drinking game so most of us got drunk after several rounds. Then they started to play this twister game which is really not a good idea... someone kept biting me like hell when i managed to balance my body by 10 fingers and 10 toes! Jesus... those crazy SAs...

So that was my typhoon eve. Normally we should've stayed at home for the safty concern, but this one turned out to be a fun party night. I felt guilty afterwards tho for not listening to the warnings but still hanging out till midnight on typhoon day...

But... it was such a FUN day!:P
