people in Vietnam stare a lot too especially at me and my cousin because we have dyed hair Did you get to go fresh fruit picking though? I remember you wrote about missing that
also, I love engrish I bought this shirt today that said let's be surfer man, I suck at haggling but I try anyway 'cause I know I'm getting ripped off since I am definately not a local
yeah. In the beginning, I got ripped off so much cos I'd just take whatever price they throw out there literally....wow, I was such an idiot. I'm still really bad at haggling..mostly because I feel bad since somehow...all the sellers I run into are like old ppl....and plus they always look poor..so I mean the stuff I buy costs like 5 dollars USD anyway...so I try not to be too greedy...
people in china expect that you haggle. that's why the prices start high, and you end up leaving at such a low cost - usually 50-75% lower than the cost they presented you.
but anyway, glad you had fun! :D and most people i know (ranging from teens to moms to aunts) have all taken advantage of studio picture taking! it costs like, $500 or so, and that's about what it would cost if you took it in the US!
and i remember doing facials and massages too! it was absolute luxury :) i had a milky bath with rose petals, and a nice aroma massage.
Yeah, in the beginning, I kept getting ripped off.....ugh, but then I learned my lessons. heh.
I haven't seen any American potrait place that takes pictures like those studio pics taken in China...I don't why. Do they even exist here??? Most American places usually lets you take natural pictures, and don't tell you how to pose, they usually just let you do whatever..and then they take the pics..cos I know one of my mom's friends tried to find a place in the U.S. that takes studio pics like they do it in China, and she couldn't find one, so she had to go back to China to get her wedding potraits made.
Hello beautiful, I missed not readin anything 4 awhile! I seriously DID NOT recognize that chick n the dress. WOAH SHES GORGEOUS I thought...n it was u. That looks REALLY professional, def. the best ever. N love that green! I always thought Asians looked good n green.
Yeah, they have studios here, my father used 2 b a photographer, he worked somewhere like that, but now, geez, theyre v. xpensive...dont know if they'll let u b natural, but if they're xpensive enough, probably, lol.
N I would critique love, but Im startin 2 b busy now (I'll find some time 2 write a ridiculously long journal entry some day sayin why...)
Although, there is no need 2 cause they're all beautiful, really (Id say somethin if they were ugly lol). N I love the captions, so cute. "Tender as water" awww o^_^o
