It's a shameless plug, I know...
International SOS Emergency Health Insurance - $685
A month of rent at my new apartment (I'll move in February) - $73.53 (currently I pay $110.29)
Bus tickets for a long weekend in Dali (where I will soon have a friend living) - $44.12
A box of Cheerios - $13.23 (I have no idea why that is so expensive)
A whole pint of Haagen Dazs - $11.03 (sometimes you just need a whole pint)
A CD on iTunes - $9.99 (ok, that's the same...)
A week's worth of Chinese lunches - $7.36 (yes, that's about $1.50/day. One of my favorite meals is as cheap as $0.74!)
A whole season of an American TV show on DVD - $7.05
An apple, maple walnut salad, bleu cheese roast beef sandwich, and a cookie at the Silver Spoon - $6.47
A block of Land O' Lakes cheese - $5.15
A caramel macchiato from Chicago Coffee - $5.15
A scoop of ice cream at Haagen Dazs - $5.14
An English movie in the theater - $5.14
Falafel, french fries, and a Diet Coke at Wicker Basket - $4.56
Baked eggplant, salad, garlic bread and "Millionaire's shortbread" at Mazagran - $4.41
A box of blueberry muffin mix - $3.82
A non-pirated movie DVD - $3.68
A quesadilla and a coke at Salvador's - $3.53
A double cheeseburger combo meal and strawberry sundae at McDonalds - $3.38
A box of Kraft Mac & Cheese - $2.21
A bag of 5 bagels - $1.76
A can of Dr. Pepper - $1.33
A pirated movie DVD - $0.88
Should you want me to experience any of these wonderful things, give me money! Make out a check to Westside Baptist Church and be sure to write "Rachelle Wilson - Account #8269" in the memo line. The gift will be tax deductible and all that good stuff.
Send it to:
Westside Baptist Church
10000 W Newberry Rd
Gainesville, FL 32606
In case you forgot what you're actually supporting, I work for an awesome Fair Trade handicraft company, which is helping a lot of women in rural Yunnan province. Supporting me will help me to stay here and continue working with them. And yes, the above comforts of home do help me to stay here. You try eating fried rice every day for a week and trust me, you would give your left arm for a caramel macchiato or a box of Kraft Mac & Cheese. I personally would prefer to give my right arm, as I am left handed, but you get the point.
