Whenever a parental figure likes a particular look, you can pretty much hear the death knell.

My recent trans-Pacific experiences once again confirm that getting there is NOT half the fun. I hope you can ward off the screaming children with your plastic eating utensils. And do have a good time!

I brought over a dozen bottles of Centrum to my family in Asia because that’s what Mom ordered me to do only to find that they SELL bottles of Centrum multi-vitamins IN Asia. WTF. Do I get the logic? No, I do not get the logic.

You should have also brought them American chocolate like Hershey’s and Godiva or something. They looooove American chocolate. Which makes no sense because you can buy Belgian and Swiss chocolate for cheap over there. Which is what i do. I buy Belgian and Swiss chocoalte there and lug it back home to America.

My friend’s roommate spent two weeks in China last summer, and came back with both X3 (which had hit the theaters here in the US only a week before he returned) and season 3 of Arrested Development. Arrested Development was twice as funny, given that Chinese subtitles were automatically on the screen, and we weren’t able to turn them off because 1) the DVD player sucked, and 2) because we couldn’t figure out what Chinese characters on the menu meant “subtitles off”.

I’ve never brought vitamins to the Philippines. Just the usual corned beef, spam, and towels. My Indian friend says that they always have to bring almonds to India… If you hit Sanrio, don’t forget your favorite snail mailer!
