Back at Mr. Xe’s in the morning, Andrew was pleased with the linen shirt and got some more measurements done for a suit… So Andrew could Suit up! One of my favorite students at Eonju was (is still, I’m sure) obsessed with How I Met Your Mother. Any and all jokes and/or expressions Barney makes makes me think of you, Seungyoun!
After Mr. Xe measured him, we were led down the street for a second measurement. Surrounded by boys on sewing machines, I amused myself by taking their picture. I played up being bored, waiting on Andrew, so they seemed amused when I began photographing and showing them the pictures (on the LCD screen) that I took.
We biked it to the beach. We got harassed by more vendors. We ate more bahn mi. We ate more cao lau. And then I saw rompers outside of a tailor shop on our way home. (I’ve developed a little habit of calling wherever we may be sleeping that night “home.”) At only $15.00, I figured it was worth it to have for the trip and got my own measurements while Andrew played with the shop dog, Rabbit.
