Are You Chinese?

I got 1 funny e-mail that I receive. It tell you are Chinese. What? you not?...
just read I bet you got at least one of this list


What makes a Chinese-CHINESE?



Please check the list to see how Chinese you or your friends really are:


There are at least 29 ways to know if you're Chinese. You will laugh at
yourself when you read all of them.


1. You unwrap gifts very carefully, so you can save and reuse the wrapping
(and especially those ribbons).

in your
closet or in the bedroom of an adult child who has moved out.

3. You keep a Thermos of hot water available at all times.

4. You save grocery bags, tin foil, and tin containers. You use the grocery
bags to
hold garbage.

5. You hate to waste food:
(a) Even if you're totally full, if someone says they're going to throw
away the
leftovers on the table, you'll finish them.
(Your mom will give you a lecture about starving kids in Africa ).
(b) You have Tupperware in your fridge with three bites of rice or one
leftover
chicken wing.

6. You don't own any real Tupperware- only a cupboard full of used but
carefully rinsed margarine tubs, takeout containers, and jam jars.

time you stay in a hotel.

11. You fight (literally) over who pays the dinner bill.

over 20, you own a really expensive camera.

15. You only make long distance calls after 7pm.

16. You prefer your shrimp with the heads and legs still attached -
it means they're fresh.

17. You never call your parents just to say, ' Hi.'

18. If you don't live at home, when your parents call, they'll ask if
you've eaten, even
if it's midnight.

19. Your parents tell you to boil herbs and stay indoors when you get
sick. They also tell you not to eat fried foods or baked foods because
such food is ' heaty'

20. You e-mail your Chinese friends at work, event hough you only sit 10
feet apart.

21. You always cook too much.

22. You eat every last grain of rice in your bowl,but don't eat the last
piece of food on the table.

or computers.

25 . You own your own meat cleaver and sharpen sit.

on and put in your travel-bag as souvenirs

29. You never forget to take with you all the unused bath and facial
tissues when you
check out from the hotel because you believe that you have paid for it
all.
