So you know how missionaries have that reputation as being so un-cool? I'm talking plaid jumpers and stuff. I don't really know where I picked up the stereotype, since my own cousins who grew up overseas always had WAY cooler clothes than I ever did.
Anyway, times have changed. Thanks to the internet (and to bootleg movies that show up in our markets before they're even out on DVD) you can now easily keep up with all the latest trends, even when you're living in a rural part of Cambodia. And this we know for sure: the latest trend is ANGRY BIRDS. How do we know this? Every market in Cambodia is filled to over-flowing with every type of angry birds clothing and paraphanalia imaginable. Seriously, everything: flip-flops, pillows, underwear, jeans, and of course fake iphones on which to play the game.
So our trendy friends Steve and Amie decided to host an Angry Birds party, because what else do you do with all this paraphanalia. Ryan and I scored some matching angry birds matchy-matchies (pj's) from the Prey Veng market for the occassion.
We will be ready to return to America in a year for sure!
