uh, such a nub at this blogger thing. Thanks for all your help Van (be sure to step into her wacky world from my links column). I was tempted to turn comment moderation on but that smacks of censorship.

So on my way back from my little adventure on the subway I stop by the convenience store to pick up some cereal for the week. Remembering what June told me last week when I made my cereal purchase....

**J: Here is the cereal. Which one do you want?**

He picks a Kellogs one with almond flakes. Looks pretty tasty. Because I don't want to pick the same one, I go for the chocolate cereal. Imagine Weetibits but hollowed out and a lattice structure like waffles (will post a pic next time I get them).

**G: How much are these?**
**J: X000 won. But these are normally what kids eat.**

So I paid for them and I was thinking about what was going on here. On the way back to our place I asked him about antiperspirant deoderant because I wasn't in the mood to be frisked if taking pressurised items into a plane was illegal....

**G: Do you know where I can get deoderant from? Do they sell it there?**
**J: What do you mean?**
**G: You know, so when you sweat it doesn't smell.**
**J: Korean people normally have a shower.**

Pretty funny guy. The strange thing is, I would say things like that to people too.

Fair enough about the comment moderation. I should turn that function off on my blog. It's too time consuming to check and I approve all comments anyway (except for double ups).
I don't think people in Asia people use deoderant. Well, not anyone I noticed when I was in Vietnam. I know when it's hot here in Sydney, my mum will wash more frequently.
