::A Geek in Korea::

April 29th. 2006, 11:48pm

My wife wanted to do some spring clothes shopping, and I wanted to go looking for some new games. I’m usually the big spender in the house. She hardly shops at all, so it’s not like I minded. We got to go out "on a date", which is basically impossible during the week.

She was looking for some T-shirts. Korean T-shirts, 9 times out of 10, will have crazy English written all over them. It’s harder to find correct sentences on T-shirts than in my basic English classes notebooks, and even harder to find anything written in Korean. I have no idea why.

I was given the job of proof reading all the shirts she liked. It was tough telling her if the stuff written on it made no sense at all if she really liked the shirt. For some reason, incorrect grammar on shirts bothers my wife more than me. Eventually, I found a shirt with correct English that she and I liked, as well as the design that was suitable for what she wanted. We picked up a few things for her today, which was nice for a change.
