Some things you might find intersting

Well we have had quite a bit of discussion about my travels. Now for some things you might find interesting, concerning daily and what I have learned about Hong Kongers (how natives refer to themselves).

1. If you wear under arm deodorant, don't tell anybody or they will think you have a sweating problem. Thus Hong Kongers do wear deodorant they just don't admit to it. 
2. My roommate plays World of War Craft of at least 8 hours a day. 
3. The most common response by a Hong Konger to any given stimulus in any given moment is to giggle, complemented by a energetic short step shuffle. This includes when the teacher asks a question (no actual answer follows just giggling), observing something interesting, weird or surprising etc. 
4. There are no clunker cars here. Most people take the subway (quite an impressive subway at that), take taxis, drive luxury cars, or high performance sports cars. Thus people spend a lot of money on cars to show off, it is not uncommon to see a Ferrari, Lamborghini etc.
5. They don't use clean water to urinate or defecate in, all buildings have separate water lines. One running grey water (or salt water) and tap water for bathing and washing. The tap water is treated with ultraviolet light for consumption at select locations. 
6. At 90% It everything you touch is wet. even the bottom of my bed perspires from my body heat over night.
7. Being over weight it totally unacceptable. Young adult males are not ashamed to criticize girls for what they eat or for being slightly more than slim.    
8. Class participation is nonexistent, playing on your laptop while talking to your classmates in class is completely normal. 
9. You have to pay for air conditioning in your dorm by putting credit on you room key.
10. Everybody has an Iphone and makes a point of showing it off by playing with it on the subway.
11. To be continued...
