Never Prepared

I have discovered that I will never be prepared for India.  We only had an Hour of culture training today and my head is spinning.  Here is some stuff to remember:

• If you look a guy in the eyes it means that you want to sleep with him...so when talking to guys, look past them.
• Pointing your foot at someone is a BIG offense.  Don't sit in a fashion that points your foot or shows the bottom of it.
• You must reject food or Chai twice when it is offered.  Then accept on the third time.  This way you are not over eager...
• Indians watch American television like Baywatch and Survivor, and they think that all Americans act that way (even Christians because they think because we are a "Christian Nation" all the people on television are Christian.
• Don't touch or disrespect in anyway the cows.
• And so on...

 I have a lot to remember and that is not even the half of it....
