Excuse me, is that your pinky......?

Top 10 Clues that it's REALLY Cold in Romania:

1) Even the Romainian's look cold ( Thanks Thomas )

2) You tend to huddle in "packs "when walking (much like sheep I've noticed)

3) Hot water never seems to reach the apartment floor you live on when you DESPERATELY need a shower. (This applies to ANY floor above sea level)

4) You debate if the t-shirt, sweater, hoodie, longjohns, sweatpants, jeans and 2 pair of thermal socks are warm enough for you to make it to your next location.......the bathroom.

5) Your elated to find out that your nose has FINALLY STOPPED dripping, until you realize that your snot has just formed an icicle.

6) 1 pkt of instant kool-aid+ a butter knife+ the inside of your apartment windows will give you enough ingredients to sponsor the CLC Summer Picnic with "Snow Cones".....for the next 2 yrs

7) Due to the uncontrollable shivering that occurs ALL night, 12 hours of sleep just dosen't quite seem enough ( or so I've been told....really....OK,OK I admit it, I had to test this one out!!)

8) You find yourself volunteering to fold the churches bulletin's just so you can have the chance to rub your face against the warm copies ( This works really good when trying to defrost the icicle .See # 5)

9) You leave food OUTSIDE of the refridgerator at night to keep it cold. AND..........

10) When typing in the internet cafe, you look down and notice someone's pinky lying on the floor from where the frostbite had caused it to break off...eewwwww
