Sidebar: everytime i see a white person, I have this incredible urge to point and yell "WHITE PEOPLE."
Anyways. Today, I was supposed to go bicycling, for 8km to Danshui. Unfortunately, it was also raining. Usually a little rain doesn't stop Josh Liu. Actually, nothing stops Josh Liu. Except for acid rain. Apparently the shit makes you bald and chemically induced premature hair loss is not how I want to remember Taiwan. So we rescheduled.
Instead, I went for a walk around Gonguan, picked up a few items, and then headed out to the Shilin night market with my cousin around six. As expected, it was fucking crowded and noisy and hot, and absofuckinglutely delicious. The food..huge sausages, 1000cc drinks, fried chicken, it was a tapestry of gustatory delights. The shopping wasn't that bad either, I ended up getting a bag to replace my piece of shit backpack.
Apparently there's pickpockets, though. My cousin had her bag cut and shit stolen once. Can you imagine, though, if you filled your bag with say...snakes, and a thief tried to pickpocket you?
Anyways. We met up with my cousin's friend, and hung out a little more before going to get the dude's face threaded. Yes. Dude. Face. Apparently the guys here do get it done too, and it's not just eyebrows. It's the whole shebang.
Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), salons do not offer ass hair threading.
Shucks.
The acid rain theory may not be correct.
ReplyDeleteDid they ever test the rain and found it is
acid? But everyone prefers to believe in it.
Anyway, there is no good things to get wet.
If you have a full bag of snakes,
the pickpocket will not go for you. They
are not stupid.
...why do guys get their face threaded? That's incredibly...ahem..feminine.
