The washer tore the beading off my favorite shirt.
I should have expected this, since it was only 5,000 won (around five American dollars), and this happened to another cute shirt a few months ago. But oh oh oh. So sad.
The fake stones on the front reminded me of the stones my parents would buy us from Monterey.
Sweet blouse, you did me good.
(Yes, that is a Winnie/Tigger sticker on my bathroom wall. And no, I did not put it there.)
Oh yeah, before I forget: Just found a new favorite travel blog, Coconuter. This young Filipino-American left his Ivy League university to get back to his roots–without financial support from his family. He’s living on just three bucks a day. Wow.
I scanned his entire site in two hours, and not only is he a good writer (and, um, easy on the eyes), but he really does the motherland some justice. His articles are really in-depth and he includes tons of photos. Check it out.
