Itchy.....!!!!!

The place I started my life in the US was Colorado. Colorado….. hum… Rocky mountain? Beautiful nature? Winter sports? Hot spring? No no no….

Soooooo DRY!!! Even when I got there was in May, it is so dry especially compare to Japan. Of course, I didn’t bring body cream or any from Japan.



So I started to feel itchy on my skin and scratched. You know what happens next...





Still itchy!!!!  Never stop!!!

Then I decided to buy one. Where? There is Walmart about one hour walk!!!

Oh well, nothing to do anyway so why not?


I felt nice fresh breeze and walked one hour to get a just body cream. Oh, by the way, I didn’t know what the Walmart looks like at that time. Oh my god….




It’s humongous!!!   It’s like a amusement park in Japan!!! That made me so excited but immediately I realized that how I’m gonna find a body cream in this huge store….And I wasn’t brave enough to ask employees where body cream at. It took me 15 minutes to find body cream eventually but this was just a beginning.



There are so many different kinds of body cream and lotion etc!!!! I don’t know which one to buy!!! Anyway, first thing I did was just compare all the price and pick one which is not too cheap but not too expensive (I appreciate that numbers are worldwide). Of course, it’s all written in English and all I could understand was “body lotion”. 


…………….. 


Then I remembered that I have electronic
dictionary!!!  Wooohooo!!!  Opened up the dictionary and first word I typed in was “ITCHY”. Yes, I picked the right one! Then for some reason, I started to type in all the words in label that I don’t know starting from “Direction” to “Distearyldimonium”. After I could understand what it says (it took me almost 20 mins), I noticed that there are similar products around. And I was curious what the differences are between those. When I decided which one to buy finally, I was so exhausted. You know why…..



I was standing in front of body cream section with electronic dictionary for 2 hours!



It was such a productive 4 hours short trip to just get a body cream. haha. I can’t believe that I spent 4 hours for it. But I won’t forget the word forever…..




Itchy!!!!
