You know you're in Chile when...

I've compiled a list of things that are, in my opinion, quite distinctly Chilean. Most of the time they are things that really annoy me, but I wonder if I will actually miss them when I am back in the states. Good thing I have another semester to soak it all up!

1. Walking into the grocery store and seeing more "bagged" than "canned" products.
2. Continuing with the grocery store theme, having baggers put a maximum of three items (no matter the size) in a plastic bag. (Still waiting for the green movement to hit Chile
3. Toilet paper being placed outside the stall, I guess it's just too much to place a dispenser in every stall, therefore one giant one at the farthest end of the bathroom will have to do.
4. Seeing rat tails that have been growing since birth.
5. Waiting ridiculously long to get an email response.
6. Eating normal sized portions.
7. NOT eating normal amounts of bread, I've had enough pan to last me a lifetime
8. Putting mayo on absolutely everything, and not just a tad, we're talking globs!
9. Having to flag down the bus because you know that without sufficient effort on your part, the bus will not stop.
10. Knowing when you must give in and take a cab because the bus passed you by at 3 in the morning.
11. Last, but surely not least, seeing people of all ages making out furiously in public places.

I'm sure the list will only keep growing.
