- It is def NOT like eating at Panda Express everyday.. the food is... different... haha i'm getting used to it tho.. and i'm a pro chopsticker by now...
- All of the kids are master kung fu-ers we have incidents everyday where psycho ryan does his shaking bit and then all the sudden appears calm and out of know where gracefully leaps across the room to flatten jordan out of his chair with some epic kung fu chop. it's ridiculous.
- I can count to 6 really well now.. there are 6 girls I have to keep track of and i probably count to 6 at least 200 times a day...
- Crossing the street can only compare to a real life game of frogger.. there are basically no stop lights. you just chance your way across 4 lanes of heavy traffic when you are feeling brave.. being almost clipped by motorbikes is a constant occurrence..it's also not rare for the motorbike drivers to keep watching you so long that they run into things--embarrassing for them for suresies --creeps.
- Showers are definitely taken for granted.. our shower is a nasty stugglefest.. just like in thailand it's a shower head on the wall...the whole bathroom gets soaked..our head is also really short so you have to like awkward duck to get under it haha.. the best part is that it is so humid here the bathroom is just covered in mold..it's great.
- They honk all day everyday. A ride just wouldn't be normal if they weren't honking at least once a minute. It is so annoying.. but kind of a hey i'm coming get out of the way thing i guess...
- ASIAN BABIES ARE THE CUTEST. nuff said.
- The weather can go from sweaty hot to see your breathe cold in one day. So rude.
- Clothes are real cheap here...if you can find your size... i'm going to develop a complex if people keep looking at me and pushing me out of their shop haha or laughing when i tell them my shoe size... hah
- Dessert has a whole different meaning here. Pork Porridge is just not my idea of a "yummy treat" come on people where are the brownies and ice cream??
- The babies all have splits in their pants and no diapers... it makes it convenient for them to just do their business whenever the urge hits them... gross?
- The Chinese are pushy! When we were buying tickets for the train they were like pushing me out of the way like legit you have to physically push your way to the front of the line.. order means nothing and everybody is always up in your business... if you don't move quick enough they will just push you out of the way mid sentence.. a little uncalled for if you ask me!! ha
- Ni-ga is their favorite word.... it is used at least twice in every conversation and it really means "that one" when we first got here we heard them saying it like a million times and were all like does it sound like she just said...... well yeh haha turns out she was.. my favorite is when they say i have that one which comes out "whoa yo ni-ga" HAHA.
- It is the cool thing here to wear glasses that have no lenses in them and are bedazzled. I swear everyone has a pair. Also an outfit is not complete without something furry.. be it vest, shoes, purse, or skirt i've seen it all...
- They don't have drinks with their meals, no water, juice, soda, nothing. Strict rice and random unidentifiable other food only and nothing to wash it down with...unless it's boiling hot water. They are really focused when they eat and usually only stop to talk after the meal...but if they are talking during the meal... talking with your mouth full is fully acceptable.. yep food spray all over.. it's delightful..
- Bread here is made with equal parts sugar and flour. It is great. They don't really eat bread though except for dessert and occasionally ruin the goodness that is the bread by putting weird meat shreds all over it or in it or if not meat it's cream cheesish stuff and corn.. interesting to say the least...i def don't think of corn as a fruit... but here it is for suresies considered just that.
- The girls wear their wedding rings on their right ring finger and the guys on their left... that is where i wear my CTR ring so the Chinese teachers thought I was married for awhile haha it feels awkward to switch it tho.. so oh well!
- I have never said Hello so much in my entire life... every single person we pass (no exaggeration) feels the need to use all of the English words they possess which sums up in Hello! we feel bad not responding so we end up just saying hello and waving all day constantly. They also love to take pictures with/of us and it gets a little ridiculous ha but we try to be nice.. i won't lie though i have taken my fair share of pics where i am making a really weird face in them or once.. to this lady super obviously taking creeper pictures... a mouth full of food..haha they laughed so hard when they reviewed their masterpieces.
- Beds here are ridiculously hard. it is so stupid. laying on the ground is occasionally softer.. SOO LAME..
- In China they think that people who write with their left hands are smart... so suck it Thailand! haha UH
