You are becoming Salvadoran when… February 7, 2008

1. You can climb 2.5km up a mountain wearing flipflops and a tight denim skirt.

2. You throw rocks at dogs, birds, and cows.

3. You crave beans and tortillas.

4. No food is comsumed without the addition of salt. (This includes fruit.)

5. It seems totally normal to bathe infront of your neighbor and carry on a conversation at the same time.

6. You can chop sugar cane, milk cows, and ¨palmear¨tortillas with the best of them.

7. Every inch of your body is rittled with the trademarks of the millions of bugs that visit your home every day.

8. You show up at least 1/2 hour late for everything.

9. You litter wherever you please because there is no garbage collection.

10. 70 degrees is cold.
