There a few things you look forward to when you grow up in a third world caribbean island devoid of malls and cool stuff at affordable prices. Hence the joy of having relatives that live in the states. A recent trip to the airport had my sister and I laughing  and reminiscing on how we use to draw the size of our foot on a piece of paper and give it to our mother so she would know what size to ask for when she went abroad to shop. (picture this  caribbean woman saying i need a shoe in this size and pulling out sheets of stapled lists of her kids wish lists) I have to say she did well despite the embarrassment, but even at age 27 i still  get excited when i see  over stuffed suitcases enter the house, and i wonder to my self what goody lies within. yup all but to live  on an island far away from beloved victoria’s secret , forever 21 and the list could go on and on… this comic needless to say was inspired by that.
