You know you're in Ukraine when...

You consider -10 C not too bad
You keep food in between the doors (real Ukraine there)
You buy bleach at the post office
You know by smell whether you're going to have green or red borscht
You wear two pairs of pants at all times (sometimes three)
You know what the elektrichka is, or better yet, how it smells
You play at snowballs, go in for sports, and say, "To my mind"
Your jackets are red with black or black with red...and sponsored.
Vodka is considered a dish with breakfast.
Vodka is considered a substitute for breakfast.
You think nothing of standing with 23 other people in a small minivan for a three hour journey.
You don't whistle inside, ever.
The coolest thing you own is your scarf.
You cant read cursive...and have a sneaking suspicion noone else can either.
Chai has replaced your word for tea (as well as shkoff and voksall)

More to come...
