Funny Asia pictures with captions

Hey, so that picture on the Mickey D's cup is REALLY real. No photoshop here. But it isn't me. But it looks like me. Actually, I'm surprised ppl don't come up to me in the street to ask whether I'm the girl on the McDonald's cup. Hmmm.

Another icky pic:
D.Lu's dirty Asia feet" - Donculously dirty


P.S. D.Lu went to take a nap and is snoring up a STORM. Ahahahahah.

Gah, surprise entry eaten...

D.Lu, I know I made fun of you for your blog being eaten by blogspot, but the monster has also attacked my blog entry so I apologize. Stupid blogspot monster!!! Gah. I'm going to select what I'm typing every 5 seconds to copy it, in case. AHahahaha.

Anyhoo, I was raving about how great street meat was, and was going on for quite a while, but seeing as that entry was eaten, I'll leave you with a few choice highlights.

Street meat is sooooooooooooooo great.

Can't beat stuff on a stick grilled and seasoned to perfection over hot coals! :)



Last time we had street meat, we also did a load of DVD/CD purchasing, which was so great. I decided to recapture my fobbiness. Or, well, I never had much fobbiness, so let's say I'm letting it take over. Anyway, I was browsing the j-pop section for some Namie and Ayumi and had a CD in my hand when a guy next to me turns to his friend and says disdainfully (in Japanese), "Oh, look, she's checking out Namie Amuro." To which I reply by turning and saying, "Oh, why, you don't like her?" AHahahahahahahaha, he was totally like, "You know how to speak Japanese?!?!?!" I was like, "Surprise!!!!!!!!" :) Ahahahahaha. It's because I look Asian, and no one thinks I'm Japanese. Mwahahahaha.

For the record, I had eleventy billion people ask me on Saturday HOW I could be Canadian, because I am Asian. Therefore, I am winning the competition, booyah D. Lu!

Itchy all over...

Happy Thanksgiving! This weekend, we cooked a chicken, mashed potato, stuffing and veggie dinner (with salmon for Sarah B. who doesn't eat meat), and it was yummyyyyy. :) It was good to have the other ppl visit us from the other city! It was an amazing week because I spent the week having really intentional times with God, and He spoke so clearly. I also got to talk to a girl this week about her beliefs, and I'm so excited to share with her...

I am thankful for:
1) For knowing God intimately
2) For my family at home and here and all my loved ones
3) Incredibly amazing housing
4) Incredibly amazing street food 2 on the street outside our housing complex
5) For grace.

Gah, so I am officially itchy ALL over. It started a couple days ago, and I thought it was because of a new soap I was using. I discontinued use of that soap (ahahaha, now I'm diiiiiiiirty!) ;) but am still itchy. I consulted a doctor friend, and because I'm also nautious, he said I was having an allergic reaction to something. If I scratch anywhere on my body, I get hives. Gah. I never knew what hives were till today. Sigh. Itchy. All over. Sleepy. So sleepy.

Random factoid: THere is a mosquito in my room that I failed to kill, and now I am living in fear of said mosquito.

Funniest thing ever!

So D.Lu, who is part of my group here needed some new undies. Now, if you know anything about shopping in Asia, everything is 2 sizes smaller than in Canada. So, he walks up to some underwear vendor man and requests LARGE undies, because he's D.Lu. (like J.Lo) A.k.a. he has an outtie bum. Anyway, the vendor pulls out these XXL undies, and D.Lu thinks to himself that those undies are not even going to fit over his ankle. Sooo, he asks for bigger ones. And lo and behold, what does the vendor pull out? XXXL? Noooo....



AAHAHAHAHAHaha, count 'em, that's SIX X's.

XXXXXXL!!!!!
That's SIX X's!!!!!!!!!!!! That's HUGE! They were called "Big Sir Boxers". THey have a big farmer on the front of them!!!!

They are SO funny. Asia is full of funny pictures, but this internet connection takes forever to load them. They will come slowly and surely though.

One of the things that really excited me at the beginning of the year was meeting the Japanese team who was going to be doing the same thing as me in our city, but at a different university! They are amazingly amazing!

I had to translate a speaker session for them, and I was sweating BULLETS. I was so hot and I couldn't think of words and I don't think I will ever translate into Japanese again. But they were so nice and cute. The funniest was that the middle guy said that one of the only things he could say in the language was "Will you be my girlfriend?" and I was fully like, "Way to be useful with your team!" Ahahahaha.

SO that's all for now. Wow, this has got to be some record, updating twice in 2 days. Don't get too excited, it could be it for a couple months!

Breaking the silence

I'm finally breaking the long blog silence with....

Ahahahahaha, being tagged by Laura!

Rules of the game: Post 5 Weird and Random facts about yourself, then at the end list the names of 5 people who are next in line to do this. Also leave a post on their xanga (or blogspot, which is even better) to let these people know.

(I can't believe it, everyone's doing this, I had no idea because I hadn't read xangas in so long. WHO am I going to tag?)

1. I can play rock, scissors, paper, with my toes. I have long toes. What can I say?

2. I've never been to Florida. Honestly, EVERYONE'S been to Florida. Not me. I always wanted to go to Epcot, but now I think I'm too old to romp through Disneyland and Epcot without yelling at kids in line or doing some other crazy thing like that.

3. Wow, I really suck at thinking of random facts...Oh, I know. My big toenail once ripped off when I was small, because I was eating and driving at the same time. That is, I was riding my tricycle around my kitchen while eating ice cream. Apparently ice cream consumes my attention, because somehow my toe got stuck and off came the nail. Gaaaaah, so painful. I shudder when I think of it.

4. I had a shirt that said, "Majah Flavah" on it. Come ON, imagine me with a Majah Flavah shirt, ahahahahaahahahahaha. I'm ridiculous. I should get it for Laura. ;) Oh, but confession, I returned it. I couldn't pull it off. No majah flavah here. Sigh.

5. I write stuff on my hand to remember it but am constantly falling asleep on my hand, forgetting I wrote on it. Therefore, when I wake up, I am left with very attractive backwards-writing on my cheek, to go along with my attractive drool splotches. I have Majaaaaaaah flavahhhh! AHahahahaha.

Okay, so now I tag...Naoms, Emiks, um...gah, I need more friends...Dan and um...Steph and Patricia (ahahaha, don't check Patrish's she never updates!)

I'll try and update more often...but no promises...net connection over here isn't the greatest.
