(to make my day!)
erica and jocelyn sent me a package with two bottles of "jergen's natural glow" and a bunch of stickers (for my students). why tanning lotion, you are wondering? well, i usually use it in america and like the "healthy tan" look. here in taiwan, WHITE is the new TAN! the drugstores are filled with whitening lotions, soaps, creams, pills, and powders. people use "sunbrellas" to protect themselves from the sun, and big hats, long sleeves, and gloves, even in the hottest heat. i'm sure the skin cancer rates are low, and old people don't have many wrinkles, but... whitening creams? come on!
okay, i have to go to bed... make sure you read the blog UNDER the one about josef's birthday--it's new!
