This is probably my 4th or 5th time flying to Taiwan. The last time was only in January to join Juste Debout Taiwan. This time round, I wanted to visit Kaohsiung as I haven't done so since 2011. Hence I decided to go Kaohsiung for a few days to visit some old friends and to join South Side Session 7. This was some photos taken at South Side Session 7.  Thank you Smile from KFC (Kaohsiung Funky Crew) and Yu-Chin Mike for the awesome pictures! Since I was already there, I've decided to join the Waacking category on top of Locking. I honestly never practice much on my waacking. So I didn't know how I was supposed to feel when I managed to battle my way to the Semifinals (Top 4). For locking, I only got to the Top 38 auditions. Actually I should be proud of myself because there were 100+++ auditionees for each category. And at least I got to experience battling in quite a big and well-known event in Taiwan. Even though it was through waacking.

I really fell in love with Joyrich after following their instagram accounts. So when I went to Hong Kong and Taipei recently, I just had to hunt for the shop and buy some stuffs!

Ximending ( 西門町) is a must-visit neighbourhood shopping district while in Taipei! This shopping district have been called the Shibuya or Harujuku of Taipei. Fact: Ximending has more than 20 theaters and 6000 vendors. It is also a popular area for small concerts, album launches, and street performances.   This guy was rapping spontaneously about the things he sees around him! Damn awesome!   AND we were lucky enough to get a glimpse of JJ Lin who was having a promo for his new album! It was so cool when he had his entrance on a pretty white horse. I'm sure all of you out there would be familiar with the term 'bubble tea'. 'Bubble tea' was actually originated from Taichung, Taiwan during the 1980s. So Taiwan is the perfect place to have some authentic Bubble Teas! There are many brands out there. But when I was in Ximending, I love to buy from 2 particular shops, 'Ding Cha' (薡茶) and 'Come Buy'.   Look at the Chocol
