Good job Krist finding the TCK thing. Now I am putting it in my account so that I never delete it off my email again.
You can't answer the question: "Where are you from?"
You speak two (or more) languages but can't spell in any of them. English, Spanish and shwia shwia Arabic
You flew before you could walk. For Sure
You have a passport, but no driver's license.
You watch National Geographic specials and recognize someone. (ALONG THE SAME LINES: YOU RUN INTO SOMEONE YOU KNOW AT EVERY AIRPORT)
You have a time zone map next to your telephone.
Your life story uses the phrase "Then we went to..." five times (or six, or seven times...). Yep, exactly 5
You speak with authority on the quality of airline travel. British Air is the best. Even coach gets individualized movies
National Geographic (OR THE TRAVEL CHANNEL) makes you homesick. Yes, History Channel too
You read the international section before the comics.
You live at school, work in the tropics, and go home for vacation.
You don't know where home is.
You sort your friends by continent.
Someone brings up the name of a team, and you get the sport wrong.
You know there is no such thing as an international language.
Your second major is in a foreign language you already speak.
You realize it really is a small world, after all. You feel that multiple passports would be appropriate.
You watch a movie set in a foreign country, and you know what the nationals are really saying into the camera. Haha, Yeah I do
Rain on a tile patio - or a corrugated metal roof - is one of the most wonderful sounds in the world.
You haggle with the checkout clerk for a lower price. I almost did that on the riverwalk the other day
Your wardrobe can only handle two seasons: wet and dry.
Your high school memories include those days that school was cancelled due to tear gas, riots, demonstrations, or bomb threats. Terrorist Attacks [9/11, bombing of Afghanastan]
You go to Taco Bell and have to put five packets of hot sauce on your taco.
You have a name in at least two different languages, and it's not the same one. The Egyptians pronounced my name Elizabis
You think VISA is a document stamped in your passport, and not a plastic card you carry in your wallet.
You automatically take off your shoes as soon as you get home.
Your dorm room/apartment/living room looks a little like a museum with all the "exotic" things you have around.
You won't eat Uncle Ben's rice because it doesn't stick together. sticky rice is awesome
Half of your phone calls are unintelligible to those around you. or conversation with other TCK kids.
You go to Pizza Hut or Wendy's and you wonder why there's no chili sauce.
You know the geography of the rest of the world, but you don't know the geography of your own country. Or I don't know any of the State capitals, or when I played the listing countries game I remembered to included Lesotho, Montnegro but not USA, Canada and Mexico
You have best friends in 5 different countries. They might all be in the US now, but before college. yes
I decided since the job is a no go, I will volunteer/observe at this PT place in town. Get those hours out of the way. It's actually really cool because they have me working with the patients and go through stretches and exercises before they go through the PT session. So more hands on then just observing and folding towels.
