In a bit of a bummer, my camera and cell phone were pilfered. Pretty sure it was an old Aussie guy who shared my dorm. My fault--they gave us lockers and I got too comfortable. So the laptop has croaked, the cellphone and camera are nicked (with over 100 photos on the camera). Totally electronic free. I really need a camera, so I will probably buy one next week. Cell phone I can do without. I miss not having a computer, but it can wait.
I have previously written about how factory seconds make it to this market because of spelling/syntax/grammatical errors. And that it is very important for Asian girls to either understand English or take someone with them who does when buying anything with English print.
Today I may have seen my worst ever shirt on a Chinese girl. It was a pink sleeveless sweatshirt that read--and I swear I am not making this up-- "Dear FDS, thanks from all the cute boys at camp".
