observations
Being in America for the past...2 weeks I guessed has made me observe several things that I like and don't like about America that I would never have picked up on before being an MK; so here they are:
1. Very polite cashiers at the store
2. Sliced bread...why does it have to be pre-sliced...what's so hard about cutting bread?
3. Automatic doors on vans...you push the button and it closes all by itself...how lazy is that? how are you supposed to build up those muscles?
4. Convenience foods...doesn't it cost less to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches yourself, than to buy it in a box? isn't all this convenience food making Americans lazy and therefore overweight?
5. Hearing a sermon in english...YES!!!
6. Really cushy padded carpeting...lovely!
7. Being able to eaves drop :) (cuz I can understand a whole conversation)
8. Soda that doesn't go flat in a few days
9. Big closets...yeah!
10. Walmart and Target...love going there! although it is a bit overwhelming walking in those huge stores and seeing all the stuff!
I bet all of you can relate to my observations, being an MK has sure given me a different perspective from which to see things.
