First impressions

The last time I tread on USA soil was in May, 2005, so the changes are not as remarkable as other years where 34 months would separate visits. Even though born and raised here, you have to get used to stuff. Example: Sales tax is not included.

Don't stare at people who are speaking English in the store. They are not visiting. They live here. And they don't need your help.

Example: When someone asks you, "How you doing today?," they don't necessarily know you. They are being nice. Don't try to figure out where you've met them before.

Example: Some people eat tacos for breakfast. No, not just tacos... Tacos with chicken and guacamole and cheese and...

Example: It's okay to talk out loud in the metro. You can even look at people. Sometimes even make eye-contact.

Example: The Tour de France is finished just after you get up in the morning.

Thanks for stopping by.
