Sorry all I don't have much time to give you a proper update. Tara and I are throwing out apps like crazy. Nothing's panned out so far. Tara's really motivated right now because our options if we don't find anything will be working in the Outback or fruit picking...not exactly what we imagined. Here are some observations from our time here so far:
1. Toilets have two flush options...one for number one and one for number two
2. Everyone wears leggings here but they treat them as if they are actual pants...Tara and I are loving it..in fact I'm wearing leggings now!
3. Common Aussie lingo we've heard...."no worries" in response to thank you, heaps...as in a lot of something, and shout...as in I'll buy this round of drinks or "shout"
4. Pidgeons here are just as disgusting as anywhere else but the other common birds are very colorful and exotic sounding (freaks me out)

Oh man.. Joy.. have you heard any of the lingo I thought would be over there? ? ? Im dissappointed they weren't on the list. haha
ReplyDeleteAnyway, well.. you girls will find something. Im sure of it! PS.. what does working in the outback mean?? cause to all of your friends over here.. It means you are in a steakhouse serving.. lol. But.. I can't imagine they have the Outback Steakhouse over there.. (God I hope not)
So... you two need to bring the leggings back to America! That's kinda weird to me.. I guess im thinking.. isnt it in America? Just. girls wear like.. those jean skirts over them.. Is it seriously just leggings there? Sorry. maybe inappropriate but.. I feel like you'd be seeing alot of Camels over there.. lol.
Anyway, ok.. well.. Prayin for you two! Hope you guys find what you are looking for in a job! Keep looking!!! Something should come up :)
TTYL Mates!
