Yeah, i'm back in the states. Heaps of people probably know already. Kinda sucks. I know i'm doing the smart thing by coming back and finishing my degree and taking advantage of the wonderful opportunity of that whole situation, but..... I miss her.

Little observations i've made while in the land down under.

1. Cars on the other side of the road (duh)
2. No, toilets dont flush the other way. That was just something on the Simpsons. The toilets here just flush straight down.
3. Year 5 of a drought and still going.
4. They say "Thank you" alot. I bought a soda the other day. I got a thank you for making the purchase, a thank you for handing over the money, and a thank you when I got my change back.
5. The Aussie slang for Americans is "Seppo". Type "define: seppo" into Google to find out what it means. They don't use it very often though. It's just a colorful thing to say.
6. Kangaroo meat is damn tasty.
7. Bushman is to Australia as Cowboy is to American.
8. Australians love thier derelect leaders. One Prime Minister was in the Guinness Book of World Records for some beer consumption record. He was a very successful Australian politician. They loved him. Also, look up "Chopper" Reed. He pretty much personifies this rule.
9. Australian sarcasm has to be as cruel as possible to be said.
10. The air here is so very, very clean.
11. Aussies LOVE a nice "chips & gravy roll" and so do I. You take a subroll, and put french fries or steak fries and then put gravy on it. It's to die for.
12. Alot of people don't wear shoes. I haven't asked anyone what this is about, but just walking down the street, you notice one out of every ten people are shoeless.
13. No central air in residential housing.
14. Pedestrians have so much right-of-way while crossing the street its scarry.
15. You can say and play as many curse-words as you want to on the radio station i'm currently co-hosting and its all good. In fact, my first show was dubbed the "Cunt Show".
16. Wife and Husband are not the perferred term. The perferred term is "Partner".
17. On that same note, marriage is not normally a huge thing. More often than not, people just get together and have a good time, often as informal as possible. Quite often couples will just have lived together for so long that legally they are a married couple.
18. Fellet is pronounced fill-ET, not fill-aye.
19. They thing the Outback Steakhouse is the most fucked up and hilarious thing they've ever seen.

and finally

20. No one drinks Fosters beer. They think it tastes like shit.

I love Rebecca.

I love Newcastle.

I'm not coming back.

Ok, everyone, i'm outta here.

On Monday, the 2nd of October, at 7:20pm, I will be airborn out of Orlando International Airport and on my way to my final destination of Sydney, Australia.

I might take this Sunday as an opportunity to head to Tampa to pick up some things that I might need, but this is purely based on how I feel tomorrow.

I have also signed up to a photo sharing page on Fotothing.com. Durring my stay, i'll be taking many photos and uploading them onto this site. Here's my page's link:

I'll probably update it as often as I get a new set of pics, which will probably be quite often.

Well, everyone, it's been a real blast. To everyone who I don't get to see before I leave, i'll get back in touch if/when I get back.

Wish me luck.

Good news all around!

Yesterday, I recieved a plane ticket from my parents as a chirstmas gift/birthday gift/can't ask for another thing in my life gift. lol

I don't think anyone has thanked anyone else more than I did in the history of thanking.

So that means that yours truly will be kicking it old school in Australia from October 2nd to January 2nd. If it was up to me, I don't think i'd be coming back, but I need that BA

Guess thats it. I'll be making heaps of preperations, so i'll be swamped with that and school.

The End.
