RUB IT RUB IT

i had to go to the temple this morning with the brother and grandaunt.

so i got outta bed at seven, and while in a daze, pulled on my tank top and nike slacks.

the grandaunt then asked me to cover up a little more, so i told my dad the only "cover-up" i brought was the "rub it rub it" t-shirt.

he pointed out the monks probably wouldn't even recognize the words.

so i changed and we made our way to the temple in the east.

when i saw the monk doing the prayers, i looked to my mom and said...

"uh...that monk speaks english. he spoke to me in english last time."

my mom, looking puzzled, asks...

"what are you getting at?"

me...

"i'm wearing the rub-it-rub-it t-shirt. how ah?"

the next thing i knew, my brother and my mom both dropped their mandarin oranges in laughter.

by the way, in case you didn't know already, the words were emblazoned over my chest.

it was given to me by a friend for christmas, and is one of the two pieces of new clothing i have.

so i wonder...which means more? the words on the tee or the covering up of skin?

the other thing is...as the monk was giving out strings of beads after his blessings, i thought i saw him switching the beads so my mom gets the jade-looking chain and i got the pink one.

not bad, sharp monk.

uhhuh...yes, i have a pink of everything now.

pink phone, pink bag, pink top, pink bottom, pink brolly...

call me paris hilton already. =P
