Dippin' Dots!

I went to buy groceries last night after work and i took my time this time and spent a little more time looking around. I found a cooler full of dippin' dots!!! I'm so pumped! They're like 1000 won a piece and they come with their own convenient collapsible spoon! I'm enjoying a cotton candy flavored one at the moment :-)
Let's talk about brand loyalty. Cigarettes. Marb's are the only brand over here that any of you would probably recognize; and the only options are the basics (reds, menthol, lights). Well, as I was out and about on my evening constitution through wonderful Incheon, I came across one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen, and I almost invested. One of the street vendors was selling socks. One of the sets he had was literally black with a giant pack of marbs pictured on the top and bottom of the sock. And it's not even like you would be just buying a pair of these socks; they came in like a five pack. (you could probably buy an actual pack of smokes instead of 10 socks that look like packs of smokes).
One of my students had a birthday party yesterday. It was almost everythign you'd expect of a kindergarten classroom birthday party. With the exception of.....When he was getting his picture taken he got to choose any two girls in the class to be kissing him on his cheeks. They didn't get a choice, but they happily obliged. It was really bizzare to me. Maybe I'm just jealous because I've never had two girls kissing me on my birthday. Whatever.
Love Everyone. -2-

  1. That is bizarre. But I guess it's instilled in them from birth that women are nothing more than possessions.
