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!
