List of Ailene's American needs.

It is about halfway through my semester, and I have accumulated a small list of things that my friends and I miss about home.  

List of things Ailene (and friends) miss about Amurrica (Bush-ism)

5.       Reading English signs

6.       American sized drinks

7.       Napkins at restaurants

8.       Dry air

12.   Open space

13.   Days of blues skies

14.   Carpeting

Food Ailene wants to eat when her feet touch ground in United States:

1.       A ginormous bowl of Cap’n Crunch

2.       Salsa Verde Doritos

3.       Sloppy Joes

4.       Cantonese food (not Sichuanese/Mandarin food)

5.       Awful Awful (everybody from Reno should know this one)

6.       Deli sandwiches

7.       Mashed potatoes

As far the food goes, I’ve already made my demands for when I return home.  Otherwise, I will rage until everything on my list is met.  I know my family appreciates the forewarning.
