You know you're an international kid when:
1. You own a passport, or you own more than one passport, or you own a foreign passport.
2. You know what TCK means.
3. You know what expat means.
4. You flew before you could walk (and you speak with authority on the quality of airline travel).
5. You use MSN because you know it's cooler than AIM (and the rest of the world uses it).
6. You can swear in more than one language.
7. Your second major is in a foreign language you already speak.
8. You watch a movie set in a foreign country, and you know what the nationals are really saying into the camera.
9. You know what IB means.
10. You know what PDA is (AND your teachers *tried* to drill into your head that it was the most sinful, ungodly and despicable sort of inappropriate social behaviour)
11. You miss the delicious food from home!
12. Your yearbook had more than one language in it.
13. Half of your phone calls are unintelligible to those around you.
14. You keep having to explain to everyone why you speak English, even though you grew up elsewhere.
15. You are tired of people asking - "Where IS that?"
16. You sort your friends by continent...and you have best friends in 5 different countries.
17. You know the geography of the rest of the world, but you don't know the geography of your own country.
18. You're spoilt. You know it. You're VERY spoilt.
