chickens in the kitchen, part 2

10. stopsign-less intersections, or if they are there, they're completely ignored
11. cambodian karaoke on long bus rides
12. monks in brilliant orange robes, talking on cell phones
13. not tipping
14. not knowing the date, or even the day of the week
15. sitting on wet toilet seats (from flushing with a bucket of water, not pee)
16. using kleenex as napkins
17. no microwaves
18. understanding the language of honking motos
19. walking into oncoming traffic, slowly, to cross the street (this is especially exciting in big cities, but it's the way to do it... you have to go slow and steady so motos can predict where you'll be when they get there)
20. writing the date "backwards"
21. watching badminton in the park
22. people wandering around with scales (i've lost 17 lbs.)
23. dogs sleeping in the middle of the road
24. stopping for cow crossing
25. the biggest shock: waking up pre-dawn for various activities (can you believe it?!)

Pre-dawn is overrated.
