Hey Kimmy,

It's so funny to adjust to the different words, but soon enough you will be using british english here in Canada.

In Korea they call cell phones, HAND PHONES. And they call the washroom/ bathroom a TOILET. There is no such thing as Kleenex to wip your nose, rather you have to use TISSUE. My students say "may I have some tiss please teacher?".
