My sister has sent me packages before from the U.S. and it's funny of the things that I need or request for. I got her latest package and I wanted her to send me:
Covergirl black eyeliner- They don't sell it here and I don't want to use other brands here plus I really like the eyeliner since it works well and it doesn't rub off easily
Calamine lotion- When I get a mosquito bite, the bite swells up enormously, not joking, so I need the lotion to make the swelling go down. They don't sell it here in Taipei.
Stamps/Envelopes- To send for graduate school recommendations. Also, I told two of my students I would give them a U.S. forever stamp since they collect stamps and they never heard of it before.
I also wanted her to send me Halls berry cough drops but I forgot to tell her. They don't have a good cough drop selection here. I actually didn't want her to send me any candy or chips. I ate so much junk food back home and I don't eat as much junk food here but I do eat a lot of normal food here lol So for the most part I guess it's better. At least I'm eating healthier food and I even stopped drinking pop. I just hope when I come back I won't eat AS much junk food although I'm really craving blast-o-butter popcorn from Jollytime, chips and salsa dip, and chips with french onion dip. Those will be the first things I will eat when I come home lol
Also a side note: Did you know donut holes at Dunkin' Donuts are called "munchkins"? lol Drew bought them for his class and he told me about it but I was surprised of the name!
