TAIWAN PART 4

DAY 7



in front of the campus gate!
Day 2 of ASES Asia Summit! After breaktfast, the first high light of the day was 1001 Q&A! It's a networking session whereby 4 guest speakers (and we were only allowed to choose 2) talked to us about  how they started their entrepreneurial career, the industry and etc. Unlucky me only got allocated to one of my choice speaker, and he really did inspired me!!


He started off his entrepreneurial path with a simple goal, "to make better and healthier yogurt for everyone". And so using what he learnt in Biochemical Engineering, he made his own brand of yogurt FROM SCRATCH. His business expanded pretty widely and quickly over like only 2 years, which is really quite impressive. I asked him this question, "I'm interested in F&B, but I got zero knowledge nor talent in cooking or preparing food. Should I still pursue my dream?" And his answer was so cool, "If you don't know, then it's time to learn. Start by googling for recipes and all and doing it yourself, that's how I got started" WOAH WOAH WOAH~ And he's only 26 and good looking HAHAHA XD


After lunch, it was our discussion for the case competition and Q&A session with the founder. I don't really like the founder because he's too arrogant and stuck up, and it's really very irritating when he kept saying "Think out of the box. If it's something you can think, it's something we had try." WHATTTTT Then what you want us to do!! If we can think of something that great, then we will be under some big companies!


After all the work, it's play time! We had a NTU Campus Tour, and the school is so freaking huge!!! It's like a palace, just lots of trees and roads, and old buildings hahaha!


We spent more than 1 hour walking around PART OF the school! It's our OTOT time finally! We went to 师大夜市, and I finally tried the crepe!
NOMNOMNOMNNOM~

It's was good, but really big that I couldn't finish one myself!! But the queue was super long, need wait like 30 mins for this!

I don't remember where we went next, but I bought a pair of flats again!!! CANNOT STOP SHOPPING AH!

And that's the end of Day 7!


DAY 8



It's company visit day! In the morning, we headed to Appworks, a network/mobile service company that helps new start ups to create their own apps and gave advice on their business. I think the concept is pretty cool, because it's like a school for the newly start ups, and I can feel that the founder hopes to help our businesses instead of just earning profits (Y)! 

And then another company visit to Franz, a company that produce exclusive China and porcelain products. Quite an unique industry, and it's really successful to expand to many countries when it had only been 10 years since the CEO started.
And finally, it's free time again! 
We visited Taipei 101!

Okay, I wasn't really excited on that day because stores around Taipei 101 is just too expensive, and I went to Pearl Tower in China before so to me it's nothing new!
GODIVA DARK CHOC! Mill tempted us, in the end everyone got one hahahah! SO GOOD!
As usual, taking a photo before going in!
After dinner, we entered into Taipei 101 and took the fastest lift in the world up!

And we waited for super long before capturing a clear pic of ourselves on the TV!

There's nothing much so we just kept taking photos hahaha!

The nightview
ello~ being retarded LOL
and forcing everyone to do the same pose as me LOL
And did a mini surprise celebration for Mill :)

End of my Day 8! 

DAY 9


It's a serious day, because it was our case competition presentation day! Spent the whole morning and afternoon doing our last preparation for the presentation, and finally it was our turn in the late afternoon! Surprisingly, the comments on our idea were really quite good, although we didn't win in the end. Hard work paid off ah!


my pretty group mate!
And that's the end of all the serious work! Time to play~ We went to 士林夜市! 
just had to eat this again HEHEHE!
and grilled mushroom!
And that's the end of day 9!
