A night full of beer house visits

Last night I went to many beer houses in Hsinchu...

I always wanted to go here, since my friends told me they went here...

This beer logo looks very german...

And a german flag...

They had 2 kinds of beer...dark and not dark...

And not that many german dishes...this is sushi...

Some steak...

And very nice chicken...it was sweet and crispy...

And german sausage...

Then the next restaurant was near by...

It is a new place, there use to be a Giant bike store here...

They also had 2 kinds of beer, I had to try both...

It was "Xian beer"...

They are open late...and offer all you can drink during june, on saturdays...to bad I missed that offer, its only for 100nt...

But this promotion is on friday at another store in jhubei...I called many friends to try to get them here...feasting on this cheap offer...

It was not the same beer as at the Beer Work in Hsinchu...but still ok...

And sushi without rice now aswell...

And cheese sticks...

And mini burgers...

The toilet had cool design...on the gender signs...

After 3 of these...they closed the place...I told my swedish friends to join tomorrow...

Scooters in campus...

There are many scooters in campus these days...

And as usual they park everywhere...mostly on the pavements (I many times think that taiwan has pavments only for scooter parking...)

The "Scooter on campus era" will end in a couple of days i think...

Baibai, Saamet, Donny and Sebastian...

We treid swedish "snaps"...not as good as "Hallands fläder", but still ok...

Saamet will go to Shanghai...

Donny will go back to sweden and Sebastian will go to Beijing...

My friend Mariame invited me and someotehr students to join to a Moroccan restaurant in Taipei...

We met at 10, and it was super warm today...

My swedish friend Oskar arrived thismorning to taiwan, he called me, and I aked him to join us...

We went to this place...not easy to find, if you dont have a map...

The owner was from Marocco, he had lived in Asia for 15 years or more...

The menu was full of pictures from Marocco...

We ordered alot of dishes, starting wit soup...

The food was served super fast...and if we wanted more, they came with more directly...what a contrast to the burger bar some days before...

The dishes were very colourful...

It was barely space on the table for all the plates...

The owner showed us a magazine where he was interviewed...so cool...

After the food we got mint tea...wit sugar...just like in Turkey...

This is how u start pouring it up...

And then u are suppose to get higher...

Oskar was super tired, he did not sleep much on the plane...nor in sweden before he took of...

They had this cool coffee machine at the entrance desk...making cold coffee...

We went to the beer house where we always go with Fredrik, here in Hsinchu...I suggested an all you can drink and eat place, maybewe take that next time...

They had a special kind of Taiwane beer, very good...

I ordered as many sweet and sours dishes as I could find, as usual...

I didnt know, even if I have been here so many times, that its a free fruit buffet included...

The waitress were very agressive in tryting to make me buy expensive beers as usuall, but I insited to stay with the Taiwan beer...

We later on went to north gate of the NCTU campus and bought cider and beer...

And found that Fredrik And Kristoffer has imiliar bikes, fredrik will send his home soon, since he is moving to sweden...

We continued to the DJ club,but the AC didnt work (there are always some things that never works in this room) :S

DJ Saamet tried the equipment...

Strange email...

I got a strange email from some administration at NCTU that handles scholarships...
They say that Silver scholarship holders needs to work some days every semester, to earn their money, and Golden scholarship holders (who gets twice as much money every month) needs to work even more to earn their money, every month. Nothing has been reported this semester...

I went to talk to the GMBA secretary yesterday, who use to ask me for favors at the GMBA, since Im often in the lab, but when I ask if she ever reports anything from my work to the administration I get he answer "I dont know", I ask how much the other classmates work and she says "nothing"...
I wonder, how is the working process in this GMBA program? other programs really force their scholarship holders to earn their money, in particular the golden scholarship holders... It feels very inconsistent, very lame, I wonder how long it this GMBA program will survive, with this "I dont know" working method...

Dragon boat race in Nanliao, Hsinchu

We met in early morning at school to take bus to the harbor...

Not everyone showd up, some people went there by scooter...

It was alot of people at the harbor...

People stayed up late last night, so they were sleepy...

We got some tawanese bread...with red beans inside...

It was very windy...and each team got a tent...

My chinese teacher paid a visit...

Also many of my classmates from chinese class...

My friend Viktor bought burgers from Mcdonalds and Burgerking, it looked strange when he had them in the same bag...

Teams were starting continously he whole day...

One flag catcher was dressed as spider man...maybe to protect himself from the sun...

We started to warm up just before 12...4 hours after we met up for taking the bus...

Just the normal dragon boat warming up...

And some tactics...

We lost the first race and people were disapointed...just like last year...

We won the second one, and people were more happy...

We also got some pizzas and soft drinks...

It was alot of waiting in between the races...

Many people arriving, causing traffic chaos...

Many old friends from school came to watch us compeed...

I got a energy drink from my dear friend Charka...

As time passed by, fewer and fewer teams were racing...

We knew that if we lost one more race we were out...but just like last year, the first race was a "wake up" that we have to go srong all the time...not only in the end...

At the finals we lost with this light weighted indonesian team, they were uncyncronized but super strong...they deserved to win...

We waited another hour for the prize ceremony...

I lended my henna tattoo paste to some team members...

Some helicopter had some resque show, just like last year...

Then it was time for the award...

Many teams were lined up...

This is the glass trophy, kind of similiar to last years...

It was nice to take the bus back to school...ery relaxing...

Many team members fell asleep...but i was high on caffein, so i couldnt sleep...

at the night we met up at the NCTU pond...

Many people came...later on we went to the DJ club, and after that some people went to see the Euro2012 France-Spain...

AT aboriginal restaurant with my P5 class...

I went to an aboriginal restaueant not far from school with my P5 class (Practical chinese)

Its always nice to eat original food...

We took teat from a bamboo stick...

The paintings were cool, some looked lie easter island look-alike-drawings...

And the colours were jamacian...while ragea was played in the back ground...kind of wierd...

The waitress seemed to be aboriginal...so cool!

Nice decoration...

The food was similair to the one I ate in Taidong...

I was about to go to another restaurant after this visit, so i didnt want to eat to much...

This is grasshoppers...

They tasted ok...

And the mandatory rice in bamboo...

We stayed for some hour...and we also had another guest, it was a nice dinner...

Here is thecurrent class plus teacher and a guest...

We finished with dessert...slized ice, but also with red beans :S...

Its ok...

We met at the North gate, uaually people say that we should meet 10 minutes earlier, but some people keep on beeing late...so for us who hate to wait, also comes right on time...

We got breakfast on the way...it was highly appreciated...

Many people took the bus, but there was also a few going to Nanliao by themselves...

Some basic warmup...

This is the pool where we are suppose to paddle...some ppl argue whether its really 500 meters or not...there was some problems with people not focusing on looking at their paddle partner and about when to scream to get more power...we will c, its just a race...

We were practicing for 90 minutes...it was raining a little, but I still felt that I got tanned...

Here is Hallman afte the practice...the only swedish guy except me in the team...

We continued to eat after the practice...

And gave our training Oscar an award for a good job coaching us...

He got an "Oscar"...

Then we paid for your T-shirts...

Euro2012: the second swedish game...

The swedsh trade council announced that they will watch the swedish game togoetter in Taipei at "on tap, a bar near the party district...

I didnt really eat anything this day, so I started my day at New Yourk, shortly before we were suppose to take off...

Bobby, my old friend who use to work at 7-11 at north gate, was finally back in business...it was fun...

The swedes were warming up in the chalmers office...painting their faces...

The french borrowed some pens to paint their faces aswell...

At 7-11 I found "Rekorderlig Cider" again...havnt seen it here for a while...I had to buy it...

We walked to the bus station...took a bus that dropped us out side the bar in taipei...

Me and Koupingm went to his house first...I wnated to see how he lived...on the MRT to there, I saw that Akon is comming in the end of june...the is quality...

We had to go to Guting...its a bit outside the center of Taipei...

And from there walk...

Here is his house and his parents car...

It looks like a typical taiwanese home...wooden furnitures etc...

They had an aquarium without fishes, that still was on...he didnt know why...

And his parents collected this figures...

They had washing machinese togetter with TV...

This is his sister...

His parents were sleeping...she was also going to bed, and we were about to leave...

We took the taxt tback to the bar since the MRT stopped go...it was about 1 am...

We went to this bar...

They consitently told guests that they might be full...(the the bar)...when I told them that "Fredric" had reserved a talbe from the swedish trade council he siad "oh, the VIP room...welcome in"...so then the "regulation" was not that important any longer :S

Alot of people were watching the first game...

I bought a beer, they charged me twice as much, maybe uts a routine...not sure...they didnt even appologize when I asked why it it cost 648 for a beer, maybe the waiters english was not that good...and his logic (about what a beer price is, was even worse)...

We had a small TV in our VIP room...

Spending time watching the France-Ukranian game...

Outside they had alot of displays...

It was very full in thie bar this night...

We took a break inbetween the games, and I went to have some rice meat thing...typical taiwanese...

We also went to Family mart, to get something to eat, some people drank energy drinks...

And we imitated Zlatan, and his geastures on the street...

Some people made paintings on their face...

This is Fredrik, who arranged the event...he use to be a chalmers student...

This is the control room, for the TVs, they changed the comentator from japanese to english after a while...not sure why they used japanese broadcasting at all...maybe it was a better picture...

Fredriks was so cute, he was wearing his football outfit, with his Uefa 2012 T-shirt...

The fist game ended with that france won...

And the swedish game begun...

So exsiting, so much hope...

Swedish national anthem...

Suddenly many people left, only some brittish and swedsih supportes left in theclub, even thought, on the paper, it was fully booked, but chinese people, we were told...

It was in the basement og theclbu so the reception was not that good...

Some people were bored during some times...chatting on their phones, or playing games...

Then sweden made 1-1, and people wer happy...

1-1 created hope...

2-1 to sweden...wow, we heard the english people screaming when they scored, so we didnt want to be worse...

THen england scored 2-2...and 3-2...

When the game was over some people took of pretty soon...

We were about to go to McDonalds, but they didnt serve hamburgers...

We wer heading to B.K. but it was closed...

So some people went to a bagel store, why we who lived in Hsinchu went to the bus station...

Well in Hsinchu, it was morning, and people were praying at the temple...so interesting...

I went to they gym cuz it still had light...but a guy said i could not go barefeet becuase it was not safe, I asked why, and some other person translated saying that if i drop something on my foot, the shoe will maybe protect...haha, what logic is that? it was sad but interesting...I asked him to write down the regulations, so that I could translate but he refused...

I went back to the dorm, and had to take the stairs...it felt like a dejavu from lst weekend...at taipei 101...

I had my flashlights, wo I was safe, even though its kind of handicapped and warm without a fan here in taiwan in summer...

Its a big impact...

Back at the lab I got use of my old "birthday cake candles"...so convenient to save things...sometimes...

His name is Henry...

He used to be my "scared classmate"
Made me think of:

He is very nice, and knows pinyin...and far from scared any longer...

He might go to china to work after he is done at the MBA...his name i Xinren in chinese but Henry in english...

Chinese class and adviser tryout...

I had chinese class today...

I missed a quiz...but i might do it next week...only 4 students attended...Roberto my dear latino friend, went to Spirit last saturday, and got heavily beaten up by radnom taiwanese guys, totally unprovoked, it might be as people say, "Taiwan is a lawless country, controlled by maffia and corrupted police...", so he has skipped classes for 1 week...

I also went to my adviser twice, but he was not there...

Swedish premier in Euro2012

I was amazed last evening, when I spoke to some asian and african girls who seriously belived that Ukraine was a better team than Sweden (in the statistics)...they probably based it on how many friends they had from ukraine who are football interested, or mixed Ukraine with some other country...

Hmm. 17th vs 52nd postition in the world rank...I wonder what their source was...but didnt do more than just reflect...since I could never recall that ukraine played in fifa or uefa that frequently...maybe they knew more than me...

I thought about joining the ukrainians to watch, since we have so many of them here at school...but I think they take the sport soo seriously...and I dont wanna get them angry with me due to some game...

It was a boring first half...in the second alot happened...it was alot of new players in the swedish team...it was alot of people trying to slow the game down...at the last minutes...in the last 20 minutes more chanses occurred...but without result...

I brought my indonesian Arak...and treated the people attending...and took a shot for every score sweden did...I did not end up to drunk...

Im happy for Ukraine that they have a win...since they are hosting...sweden never won playing with the host nation the last 5 or 6 championships...however, sweden seldom lose playing with england...lets see what the next game have to offer...

Taipei 101 run up...

It seemed to be a very popular event...

Not that many people who tried to sign upp succeeded...but I was lucky to get a place...

I bought redbull and some rice dumpling as breakfast...

Its a 508meter building...not sure about the floors...

Many stands were set up...with sponsors...

Everyone had to fill in some health check form...

They didnt want any person to get a heart attack up there...

I didnt get a chip...and the tai ppl tried to get rd of the proble, byt sending me a way (a very common taiwanese approach)

But by not leaving, its possible to make they feel uncomfortable, and finally solve the problem...

People started in groups...and in order of start number...

Many lotteries and freebees were given away for those who wanted...

I got noodles etc...

I thoguht in running barefeet, but later on changed my mind...

AFter handing in the physical exam...I got a bracelett that people put stickers on when I took the freebees...

Where was a monitor at the start, where people could see the finish at the top...

Many people were queuing up...

This is the distance to walk...

at 12.30 (on the paper, but in reallity at 13.00) I went to stand in line...

This guy was organising the queuing system...

Then we had to scan out chip to enter the building...

And another line up...in sections...

20 people in each section...

Everything went very slow...atleast it felt like it...

Elevators...the normal way to go upstairs...

There were alot of staff checking the queues...

After this section queue, we went to another queue...

It was near the start...

I always wanted to go to this restaurant...my friend when here with her parents 3-4 years ago...i think its an italian restaurant...

THen they scanned my chip again...

And the walk begun...it was hard to run, since people were covering the path...

And they walked very slow...

At some floors they offered water...I also think we could take a rest in the corridor if we left the stair way...and maybe enjoy the view from there...

However, some people choosed to lay down on the stairs...

Or just wait for better times...

It was straight from bottom to top...if i dropped an item at the top it will fall half a kilometer I think...

I didnt know how many floors there were...some one told me 91...so this is abouthalf way...not really tired yet...but warm...

I ran the last 2 stairs...I was never really tired...it was fun, but maybe I should have enjoyed the rest places...with the view more...to explore the building...

Up at the top many people were waiting for their friends to come up...

It was a great view...I was here with my parents 4 years ago...but we couldnt go up on the terass...

Its hard to believe that the building is so high...it feels like standing on a mountain, looking down...

To get down I had to queue, there was only 1 elevator taking people down...

so it was a 40-50 minutes queue, at the time I came up...

These guys ran in the graduate suit...

Here is Taipei downtown...

These guys arranged the queue...

Here is the bus stataion (far away)...this was the higest elevator queue I ever been in...

Danshui (where the ocean is) can bee seen in the horizon...

These guys also graduated...

These foreingers (one I know use to study at NCTU, she from hawaii...sneaked ahead and saved 40 minutees queuing...)

This is the first elevator...super small...

After the frist elevator, we entered another queue...

And another elevator...a little bit bigger...

To this floor where we had to change elevator again...

It was an even bigger elevator...

Well down at the entrance floor I could see thestarta again...

We had to queue to get out from the building...

These guys were just about to start running...

We returned our chips...

And got our time on a diploma...

I got 20 minutes...next time I might run some seconds faster, to get 19 minutes something...it sound much faster...

They also offered a finish monument here, for people to take pictures...

After the run, sight seening in taipei was on the agenda...

Thepublic library had a cool self service borrowing machine...

Since I didnt eat that much breakfast I went to Mcdonalds aswell...(im still in a kind of a hamburger diet)

I bought alot of drinks...

And took a wal in a park I never been to before...

Max speed 20km/h, ppl in wheel chairs has to take it easy...

It was many many people exersicing here...

One of taiwans biggest mosques were here as well...

Many people were reading...most of the students...

I stay in the library with my friends until they closed...and then took the stairs down...I got a dejavy from earier that day...

In taipei they have a "bike and walk" way, instead as in sweden, a "bike and car" way...i dont know which one is the best...

Graduation day...

It was alot of confusion about when and where to be during the graduation day...(some info in chinese was provided)...

People gathered in the lab around 13.30 for some photoshooting at the library...

We tried our graduation dresses.

At the library main entrance many other departments were taking photos as welll...they had some statues dressed as graduates...

It was freaking hot in the black dress...

Many relatives showed up...I always wanted to see how my classmates brothers and sisters and paretns looked like...

This is a photo with the girls in the class...

This is a photo of all the photographers...

My old roommate passed by...

There after we headed to some classroom for more photoshooting and speech...

We got some flowers as well...

As usual they as an american to be the host...

The professors were talking a little...

And the we were shooted with some dark blue book...and a professor...

and some students were picked from the professors to speak...

This is a family comming all from the south of taiwan to see their son graduate...

This is "the stephen", he was hand picked...by professors

Some students were picked by other students...

After a while people didnt know what more to add...so the speeched faded out...I was also down there to say something funny...

Then som photo shooting...

More photos, but in different room...

Some cakes...

More familiy look-alikes...

More eating and mingeling...

I was looking forward to meet these parents...

This is a brother /guy to the right) of a classmate...

We could pick photos that was taken during the years...

Then people went down to some bigger room...I was wearing shorts under my dress...it was worth it...even if some ppl mightthink that I was naked under there...

Here the class waited for going on a stage and take more photos...we bought some beers while waiting...

Here is the stage...it was hundreds of students who were shipped from right to left...with the professor or a dean beside them...

We also queued for a while...and the stood there for some minute while people took pictures...

We also got free books...but they were only in chinese...written by a speaker that we didnt listen to (it was also in chinese)...

One of my favourite professors...professor Who (Hu)...was at theentreance of this building so that students could take pics with him...

We returned to our lab and had some shots...I jsut got some arak from indonesia from a friend to took it home for me...but delayed his delivery...

We contined to Mcdonalds...

Where I saw that they had the "Taiwan Monopoly" again...with NCTU as a medium expensive street...

I ended the night by going to a pool party...where people were kind of drunk and flirty...

They later headed to some All-you-can-drink club to drink even more...I had to go to bed early...(my sleep was disturbed for some reason...an earthquake was in Hsinchu...6.5 on the richter scale I heard)

I was about to go to taipei last friday...just for the sake of the preparty feeling...

I bought some healthy things at 7-11 before I went to the swedes...

I also brought beer from a-mart...

It was only 3 of us, who planned to go to taipei...to a park fo celebrate a finish guys birthday...but time passed by fast...

...Viktor H showed up, his chinese name is Houman...its sounds cool...

...they guys didnt leave until 22.30, and that was a ittle bit late for me who only wanted to join the bus back and forth...

So I choosed Plan B and baked pizza in my lab...

With exclusive cheese...and ate it before I went back to the same appartment...

Where we watched the Euro2012 premier...

Even Fredirk Ramberg showed up...with his newly bought Euro2012 sweden shirt...from intersport in Gothenburg on his way to the parport back to taiwan some week ago...

We used VPN to sweden, and watched it from svt...its the most convenient way...

The girls made some pie...I brought icecream...it was a nice night...

FSA graduation party

Last night the Foreign Student Association had a grauation party...

It was under the bridge near the south gate of the campus...

Alot of people came there...and as usual, people tended to separate themselves in groups depending on nationality...

This is the "arabic BarBQ", always smells so good...

Not that many vietnamese students came this night, Swallow my classmate sat with my other GMBA classmates...I introduced her for my friends Yini, who was looking for vietnamese students...

It was very warm this night, over 30 degrees...

The french exchange were having fun throwing water on each other...not appreciated among some latinos...

After a while there was alot of left overs...its hard to see in the dark if the meat is done or not...

After the BarBQ we went to Plur...on the way there, we saw a super long queue at Spirit...my finish friend went to ask what was going on...it was some kind of graduation party...for some other school...(they all seemed to be taiwanese students)

In plur it was the same as always...but with sand on the floor...

And this time the police interupted the party...didnt the club pay enought to the police?

They were there for a long time, and the MC asked people to lower their voice, for the police to do theri job faster (checking IDs). They only check the ID on people who look asian...

When the police was gone, it was super long queues to the bar...longer than usual, they are kind of slow here...

Many people know each other, and gives their glass to someone who already is queuing, but its only 2 glasses per guest...

...but people then just sneaks ahead...not appreciatedamong the people in the back...

Most of the french exchagne students brought sunglasses...and were posing at the dancefloor...it aparently works for picking girls...its interesting...

Some swedes tried out a graduation outfit aswell...

They looked really funny..

Dinner with the swedes...

I ate dinner with the swedes today...

The blur picture is from an "all you can eat" in Jhubei, I was here last semester aswell...with the same swedes...(more or less)...

I met my old roommate again...and many nice old friends...

And some french exchange students...the calm ones...

I started with some icecream as usual...it really took long time for the staff to deliver the orders here...but its self service on the dessert...

We ordered alot of meat to start with...its nice to eat alot of meat even if it is mostly very thin slizes served here in "all you can eat barBQ"...

But we had 3 hours of eating (or 2) I think, so we had time to reorder...

Just ike last time, we had 2 tables...that are very isolated from each other...

But after a while, peaople start to mingle around...and change table...

This is what was left on the table...when we were dont...many cups and some burned meat...but more or less empty...now ppl took the taxi back to campus...I took my bike...

I ordered some meat from a bar nearby red bar. I asked why they have a italian flag, they did not know...its not that many italian dishes on their menu...but just the vlew of the flag makes it look like a restaurant...

We sat outside, ate and drank...it was fun, some people later headed to plur...
