what's in the bbox?

as i prepare to pack my bags to the Phil., i've been mulling over some questions that i've never asked before. what i mean is that my consciousness has changed in ways that challenge my old habits. i have become aware that there are some things i no longer want to practice like the mindless buying of pasalubongs that, while they may reflect my thoughtfulness, are really things that have been made, for example, in sweat shops in China. and that means almost everything! so the dilemma of what to take home for pasalubongs?
