Mini Update: It Happens to Everyone in Southeast Asia (but it hurts!)

When I was still in the Language Corps program, one of our teachers, Billy, told us about something that happens to everyone in Southeast Asia.  He said that you will get your leg burned by the tailpipe of a moto (motor scooter/motorcycle).  Me, being foolhardy, thought that wouldn't happen to me, I'll just watch where I'm going!  Well, it happened, and you know what?  It hurt, a lot, I have a scar!  I was walking to the bus station in Saigon to buy my ticket to Phnom Penh, there were a bunch of parked motos in front of it.  I had to weave my way through them and one of them was still cooling down.  My leg brushed up against it and burned the back of my right leg kind of badly.  I shook it off, bought my ticket and went on my way.  Like burns do, the pain came back in waves, and it was intense!  I found a pharmacy and managed to convey what was wrong and I got some ointment.  Luckily it's all better now but I do have a wicked little scar.  That is all.
