Random Things I Will Never Take For Granted Again
1. Paper Towels (no one here uses paper towels. Ever)
2. Saran Wrap (we have had to get VERY creative for breakfast leftovers)
3. Flushing toilet paper (the worst is getting the dropped toilet paper out)
4. Laundry Baskets (my locker agrees with this one)
5. Vegetables (Basically anything not thai and fried)
6. Not worrying about falling off my bed (I’m embarrassed about this one but its a reality for me here)
7. Ice (Ice baby)
8. Salads (Chicken Caesar, can I get an amen??)
9. Chipotle (I love chipotle, Chipotle’s my life)
10. Driving (cruising with my sunroof down)
11. Having a fairly regular income (money in general)
12. My dog/being able to pet people’s dogs (omg Bailey I miss you)
13. Athletic shorts (Under Armor/Nike… these aren’t dress code 🙁 )
14. Working out in a gym (Baljeet and EG convinced me to work out in the prayer room with them. bad idea. very hot. very sweaty.)
15. Three-ply toilet paper (luxuries man. luxuries.)
16. Lemonade (ah so good)
17. Mexican food (tacos. nachos. hallelujah)
18. Going to the bathroom with the door closed (stalls do not count as doors.)
19. Traveling alone (can I PLEASE just run to get peanut butter alone???)
20. PIZZA (they have it here, but its hecka expensive)
21. Google Maps (I really should learn how to direct a Songthaew in Thai)
22. Phone calls (I have FaceTime, but ya know, sometimes I don’t want people to actually see how grimy I am)
23. Water pressure (my sink drips)
24. Trash cans (I don’t know why Thai people don’t use trashcans)
All in all, be thankful you Americans.
