Awkward Accounts:

I figure in keeping with the spirit of the blog, and for my own personal amusement, I should keep a running tab of all the small things.

- I walked into the bathroom in my host-home and couldn't find the toilet. I found it four hours later, in a room by itself, directly next to the first room. Finally after being able to relieve myself, I couldn't figure out how to flush it. The 4 year old told me.
- I keep walking around to the left side of the car with my host family when they're about to drive and then proceed to body check them when I realize and turn around too fast (its happened twice now in only one day)
- I tried to eat an oyster in a fancy restaurant by loudly slurping it out of the shell. The waiter explained to me that you have to first cut it from the shell before you can attempt to swallow it. Which I also failed.
- I keep bumping into people on the sidewalk because I walk to the right to avoid them. Down here its left hand rule, always.
- We told the customs agent we were here with our college, which is what they call high school here. She thought we had been held back 3 times.
