I have been in East Asia for a long time when...
~eating food is easiest with quai zi (chopsticks)
~simple questions are best asked in the local tongue
~local food is the most delicious and cheapest
~most transportation is by foot or by peddle
~if not by foot or by bike, then by bus, taxi, or train
~being shocked when seeing another foreigner
~you don't understand current trends and fads in the States
~entertainment is found in international views on the the 2008 Presidential Race
~you expect all drinks to be scalding hot
~walking in the middle of the road is faster than on the sidewalk
~I don't expect logic / common sense to be victorious
~pollution levels not weather is the gauge to an outdoor activities success
~local English translations provide ample amounts of laughter and concern
~an English magazine or book is a highly sought-after item
~you know the songs played in shopping areas and other public facilities i.e. buses, tv, radio
