You know you're made in Moldova when..

You grew up on liver sandwiches.... and thought that was normal.You make your own noodles.You try and reuse gift wrappers, gift boxes, and of course aluminum foil.You are standing next to the two largest suitcases at the airportYou talk for an hour at the front door when leaving someone's houseYou have rugs covering every inch of your house.You have or had rugs on your walls.Your mom tells you you're too skinny even though your 30 pounds overweight.You ever heard of 'stomach stew'.Your mom recycles plastic cups and paper plates, and sandwich bags by washing them.You don’t know how to use a dishwasher.You have a vinyl tablecloth on your kitchen table.You use grocery bags to hold garbageYour dad ever butchered a pig or lamb.You keep leftover food in your fridge in as many numbers of bowls as possible.Your parents call you farm animals when you get them madYour dad ever told you to smack yourself over the mouth for being disrespectful.Your mom washes your clothing at 40.You don't use measuring cups when cookingYou feel like you've gotten a good deal if you didn't pay tax.You only make long distance calls after 11 p.m.If you don't live at home, when your parents call, they ask if you've eaten, even if it's midnight.When your parents meet strangers and talk for a few minutes, you discover you're talking to a distant cousin.Your parents don't realize phone connections to foreign countries have improved in the last two decades, and still scream at the top of their lungs when making foreign calls.You have bed sheets on your sofas so as to keep them away from getting dirty.It's "normal" if your wedding has 600 people.You dont know half the people at your wedding cuz your parents invited them.You've seen the ground while inside the lavatory of a train.You have mastered the art of bargaining in grocery shopping.You walk out of the grocery store with no less then two packed shopping carts weekly.You're proud to be "Moldovan"!!! You don't even blink if a teacher yells at you and says that you're stupid and will never ever get anywhere in life You feel a slight discomfort when a teacher is trying to please its students by trying to make the lesson interesting. Even though a person may speak both Russian and Romanian, unless they are from Moldova, they'll never understand you. You think it's normal when a sales rep ignores you when you ask questions, and consider it great service when they answer your questions with relative patience. When you go to the market you dress relatively poorly so the top you're trying to buy is not 200 lei, but 150. When you go to a store you dress well so when you ask how much something is, they won't reply : "expensive" You wear a white miniskirt, 4-inch stilletos, and lycra stockings when going to the market to buy tomatoes. You don't think it's weird to buy unwrapped bread out of a truck on the street. Going to get Pizza with your friends, is an actual Event, about which you'll probably mention in your diary. You've mastered the art of pushing and shoving in crowded places (aka busses) You've stepped in dog shit at least once while outside When the older kids harrased you at the playground, you turned around and started yelling "Mama!" at the top of your lungs, even if your parents didn't live on a higher floor with a balcony. You offer food to everybody that knocks on your door, even a sales rep. If you still live at home: you don't invite people over unless you've got something to feed them and the house is spotless. You know at least three relatives who work in either Italy, Portugal or France. You say you speak romanian but are from Moldova and people look at you like you're crazy.And I got MORE!!!:)
