Shantel's Sixteenth,

"Strip me back of all my pride, my possessions.
Till all I want and all I seek, is your presence."
Presence Power Glory, Citipointe Live



Annnnnndddd.... -drum rolls- Shantel's finally sixteen! Hip hooray!
The Taipei crew, Mindy, Telly, Shimdo, Gracey, Ben and Alex spent a lovely day out in foreign places to celebrate our Telly's birthday. What a struggle it was for a bunch of us ABCs to read menus, not make a fool of ourselves in public places and survive waitresses and ice-skate sellers. Thank goodness for laughs and people like this to make being stupid seem hilarious. 

Grace.... why why why why.

We first met up at a random hotel lobby, waiting for Mindy and Shantel to arrive (who got off at the right bus stop, could have just walked straight across the road to meet up with the rest of us but nopppeee, completely missed the GIANT hotel sign and decided to take a taxi which took them, you guessed it, across the road), telling stories of our Taiwan adventures and funny mishaps. After, we walked down to a department store, stumbled upon an Italian restaurant Grace really liked so had lunch there! The courses were beautiful, the waiters cute, the prices dirt cheap. Of course the heavily edited photos below show just how yum it was; why else would I edit them?


After our tums tums were full, we went ice-skating at the Taipei Little Big Egg Arena (direct translation), and had fun getting amused by sellers, waivers and the safety measures of Taiwan :) Annnnd after skating, we went to some cute little dessert shop to have waffles and high tea to celebrate the big sixteen. Twas was a great day, happy birthday Tellykins, and hope y'alls having a safe holiday! :D
