So, the question is... What can you buy for 100 dollars?
Answer: Ridiculous handbags.
Answer: Colorful hats.
Answer: Graphic T-shirts with bad English.
Answer: Multiple face masks to protect you from SARS, swine flu, or industrialized air.
Answer: These sunglasses, or any of the others that I've purchased since I got to Taiwan.

Answer: This watch, or many others like it.

Answer: A USB-powered keyboard vaccuum cleaner?

So this, my friends, is how things like fanny packs, orange t-shirts, and neon pink hats happen. Remember this when you see me (and what I'm wearing) back home.
PS: Let this also be a catalogue for you of the many souvenirs I could bring back for you from Taiwan. Because with my salary, I can't afford much more. If you don't believe me, you can look in my neon rainbow-zippered wallet.

So basically you wrote this entry to tell us that yes, Heaven does exist, and it just happens to be in Taiwan? Because I know that's what I got out of this post.
I'll risk interfering with peer to peer communicating -- to say I love you and I will miss your blog, because it shares a side of Katie that many of us only dream of. And it introduces me to sides of your "peers" that I could only have imagined (inaccurately).
Hahaha, oh, I'm kind of in love the the handbags, or t-shirts, for that matter, anything ridiculous.
Do you find any absurd mistranslations of english? (if you don't get my meaning try engrish.com)
Can't wait to see you hon!
SARS mask please.
