Wandering Fel

"I thank God every day, I wake up feelin' this way."

Recently I have been unwillingly involved in so many unnecessary drama in life. I do not understand why people just want to poke me when I am just trying to live a peaceful life without offending anybody. But, I suppose maybe by being me, I offend someone somehow. One thing that I know for sure is I cannot stand faking. And I don't think I should change myself for anyone else ever. So yeah, if you don't like me, too bad. But if you keep poking me, I bet deep down you'd wanna be me too. Hahahaha.

Okay enough about this drama, let's continue our adventure in Carton King Creativity Park in Taichung. I'm surprised this location alone is taking 5 posts to tell story. We are now at the ending chapter of this saga and oh my gawd, the paper lamps sold at Taichung's main branch of Carton King really looks fantastic.

I really love this concept of paying admission fee + food/beverage voucher or souvenir store voucher. It kinda helps to justify the admission ticket price when you make the ticket multi-function in a way although it may be just another marketing gimmick. Maybe all of this lies in the psychology of consumer-buying. Hahaha oh my gawd, what am I talking about? I suppose I really need a drink since I started to talk rubbish.

那一年我们望着星空

nà yī nián wǒ men wàng zhe xīng kōng
That one year, we looked at the starry sky

有那么多的 灿烂的梦
yǒu nà me duō de càn làn de mèng
There were so many splendid dreams

When the weather is hot and you feel like sheltering yourself with a full-blown air-conditioner, it's time to go into the souvenir store at Carton King Creativity Park in Taichung. I do recommend you to check the souvenir store nonetheless because they have so many cute and interesting products made from carton and cardboard. Just like this cute newly wed paper couple which seriously looks pretty similar to their Japanese cousin, Danbo.

"It's just another day, nothing in my way. I don't wanna go, I don't wanna stay."

Sunday is officially over now and I feel so emo knowing that it's already Monday again. Sigh. But the sermon today was so good, it kinda gives me hope and strength to face the uphill battle. Hopefully, there are not many giants for the killing this week. After all, life would be so much easier if we all can live peacefully without killing each other. Hahaha.

Since it's gonna be awhile before the next holiday, let's just continue filling in the travel journal back from Taiwan trip last spring. The last time we were at Carton King Creativity Park, we were checking out the place from level 2 of the park. And that's when we saw so many places of interest from around the world which are all made from paper.

"Everybody's changing and I don't feel the same."

 It has been a while since the last time I listen to Keane. I fell in love with this English pop-rock band in my last year of undergraduate study in Newcastle and it is a pity they are not making songs anymore. Their songs kinda make me wanna travel back to the UK too but since I need to save more dollars to travel there, I decided to start the year 2017 by travelling to somewhere nearer to Singapore. =P

The last time we were at Carton King Creativity park, we have explored the mini zoo section since it is located on the way from the entrance of the park to the main attraction at the centre. We are now exploring the second level of the park by climbing up this flimsy-looking white structure. Thankfully the white structure pathway is not as flimsy and unstable as it looks, they turn out to be quite stable so you don't have to worry so much when you are climbing upstairs.

"Everything that kills me makes me feel alive."

I suppose the pain from all those struggles make my life even more alive. Okay, no idea what I am talking about at 20 minutes after midnight, but I has just gone through an annoying moment in the office so I suppose I deserved some nonsense-talk timing after enduring such asshole treatment. Hmmph. I wanna share what happened but just recalling the memory of it makes me damn annoyed. So yeah, let's just go back to the past when all those bitches seem so far away.

Where were we again? Oh right, we had just finished touring the mushroom farm and finally, we have reached our next destination in Taichung, the popular Carton King Creativity Park. There is an entrance fee of NTD 200 but you can use the entrance fee to purchase your meal/ souvenir from Carton King.

Just like all other branches of Carton King, there is a souvenir store at Carton King Creativity Park in Taichung as well. The store here is bigger than any other stores and it has some interesting paper items which I had never seen before. But first, let me greet Whitey first.
