You look different

That was just such a funny random moment.

But let me explain:

During our Digital Art Club meeting Sunny said “hey you look different” and I answered “Yeah I didn’t have my hair cut for months” but she was like “no that’s not it!” “You look American”

OMG and I think may she is right. Putting aside the fact that my German sucks (I forget words, and I got an American accent) I think spending so much time in a different culture really makes you become part of it.

By now it is just normal for my to eat lunch at school, have drinks which to 2/3 are existing out of ice and sit wherever I want in cinemas. And the differences would continue for forever. So may I gonna make a little series out of it. One think that I recently discovered is, American wallets don’t have a coin pocket. They just don’t. I mean Americans have coins (here called change) but I don’t know they leaf it in a spot in there car or leaf it as tips. It is crazy the only time it is really worth to have change on you is when you ride the city bus but in most other situations you just use bills. (Geldscheine)

Oh yeah left to say the American knows 4 different coins: the penny or one cent, the five cent coin, the dime which is worth 10 cents and the quarter which obviously is 25 cents.
