Taipei, 12/7 - part 3

Morning was normal, woke up, had breakfast, read some manga. At about 10am we went out on the bus. There was a lot of buses, and they had set routes unlike Auckland where 1 bus goes to way too much places. Buses + MRT = epic.

Went to the Guan Hua business circle. It's basically 4 floors of computers, electronice, stereos and gaming (PS, XboX, Wii). There was also a few book/manga stores. Looked around for what I could buy. Found some gundam parody mangas that had an awesome blurb. I also saw 5 vols of Ga Rei, 14 vols of SZS, and 15 volumes of Hayate that I want to buy. Sadly, my ATM... I mean, parents aren't back yet.

Went back to the University area for lunch. Lunch was Tonkatsu. I don't know why but like all the meals I had in Taipei outside was Japanese. Breakfast was rice porridge so you can SAY it's Japanese too. Ahaha. Should have gone to Ximen and ate at that restaurant with toilet seats as your seats. XD

After lunch, it was back to Ximen to order that Hayate Figma for Wing. Luckily, I had enough money left since I didn't buy that T-shirt last night. I just hope I can pick it up before I go back... since they ain't sure when it will be released in Japan (sometime in Jan), and it needs to get shipped over. If we may have to wait till the friend comes to NZ again. Wallet is almost empty now, after buying tickets back home.

Caught the 3:00 train back and arrived in Taichung at aobut 5:15pm. I'll be back again, with a fuller wallet next time. Rawr.
