Have you ever:
wished you'd never see an airplane again?
had a craving for your favorite food, and felt heart-broken because they don't have it in the U.S.?
spoken the language you learned as an MK, just to see the faces of people who understand you and actually look like a person who speaks the language you are?
packed in less then 5 minutes?
predicted the questions people will ask when they approach your table at a church?
mouthed the words to your parents' slideshow at a church?
made it known to the world that you are proud that you don't fit in?
accidentally offended someone because you greeted them like you greet people in your field?
asked what a TCK is?
recognized the native guide on National Geographic?
felt that cringe when someone pronounces your field language wrong? or country?
made someone say 'im a monkey' when they wanted you to teach them how to say 'hi how are you?', so they could impress someone?
wished you'd never see an airplane again?

Hi I am not a MK but am fiends with a few. I really think that those of you who are MK's are sooo blessed, you get to go places and see things that most of us would never dream of:)
