So when people get sick in Korea, they wear a face mask, so that they don't continue to spread the germs. People will also wear them if they don't want to catch said germs. I think this makes sense. Though at first it was a little alarming since no one in the USA really does this (well, except asians, hehe). Many of my students are wearing them now, but these aren't just plain white medical looking masks, they're covered in cuteness (hello kitty, teddy bears, and even the Simpsons). I was in a stationary store today when I saw this little beauty, a Louis Vitton knockoff face mask. I am also shown modeling it, to give you an idea of what all of my students look like now. ㅋㅋㅋ
you have new glasses?! I LOVE them!!!! And you look beautiful in your fancy germ mask.
ReplyDeleteWhy thank you! Actually glasses are suuuper cheap here. The pair I'm wearing only cost me like 45,000W, which is about $40. So if you want me to bring back frames for you.... let me know!
ReplyDeletehey. man. you look SUPER asian with the face mask! i need new glasses too. : ( mine are OLD. from 7th grade!! doesn't matter how designer they are, they look like granny glasses compared to the styles now.
ReplyDeleteHehe, yeah, I remember what your glasses look like, they are a bit granny-ish. hehe. Are glasses cheap in Japan?
ReplyDeleteThe other good thing about buying glasses in Korea is that they're actually made for asian faces. I can wear a pair of plastic frames without them sliding down my nonexistant nose! wooo!
