@seekjustice *relaxes* Ah, thank you. I feel much safer now. 😀
Yes, it’s 85 degrees outside right now, and supposedly “feels like” 93 according to my phone. I’m inside. 😛 Oh, and in Celsius that would be 25/33 degrees. 😉 (Does anyone use Fahrenheit but Americans I wonder?) Summer officially starts on the 21st, but…it’s hot enough alre…[Read more]

Hello 😀 *puts sword behind back* 😛
Fair enough! I keep forgetting that it’s summer for you over there! At least, I’m assuming that this is a summer soccer sort of thing.
Yep, both Jonas and Justice know 😀 Its not going to go down well. 🙂

@seekjustice *backs away with hands up* Please! Be careful. That sword looks dangerous. 😀
Hi! I’m glad you’re here, because I can’t stay up late tonight. 🙁 My family signed up for one-day adult soccer tournament and we have to practice every morning at seven o’clock before my dad and brothers go to work. Soo…I’m not thinking that I’ll…[Read more]

I’ve got two characters for you guys!
- Korey. Sixteen years old. He has tanned skin, thick brown hair, brown eyes… and I’ll leave the outfit for you guys to play with. He comes from a fantasy-ish world, I think. (He’s still in the begin…

@jenwriter17 Hooray! I’m glad you like it. 😀 😀
Of course if Quillon’s there, he’s got to say “Gracious goodness!” 😛
Jonas is the best. 🙂 Okay, see you later.

Awesome! I’ll get around to replying to those soon 😀
Um…a NZ accent??? They tend to swap around their vowels 🙂
I read a book once about a Polish boy who learns English and then comes across an Aussie guy and says “English is very different to Australian”

@seekjustice I’ve been commenting on the new version of Stars. 🙂 I’m almost done with part one. 😀
New Zealanders have a funny accent? What kind of an accent do you think you have?? 😛
I love the song from My Fair Lady, “Why Can’t the English” about how nobody speaks “proper” English. The best line is where he says “In America, they ha…[Read more]

Ah 😀 I’ve never been like that, though I do have a healthy fear of the more dangerous spiders 🙂 Some of them are quite nasty, but as long as you leave them alone you’ll be right.
Well, NZ has no snakes. So that’s a bonus. NZ and Aus have the typical “Sibling rivalry”. We squabble and pretend to hate each other, but we’re really…[Read more]

Great. My post disappeared. Let me try again. 🙂
@seekjustice Yes, your creatures are definitely more poisonous. And I haven’t lived in the country for several years, and am now the typical “girl” when it comes to seeing creepy crawlies. I always ask my brothers to kill them for me. So I’m sure the huge insects you have in Australia woul…[Read more]

Well its a trope that’s quite rife on the internet. A lot of Hollywood actors are also Australian so I think it might come from that. Have you heard of the Hemsworth brothers for example?
But yeah, you’re probably right. American girls like the British men for their cultured and sophisticatedness and Australian for their rugged…[Read more]

The most Australian Christmas I ever experience was when we came home at New Years Eve and found a tiger snake curled up under the Christmas Tree…
I guess the only difference between our snakes is that ours are definitely much more poisonous.
It doesn’t surprise me that Australians don’t know the difference between horseshoe…[Read more]

@seekjustice Ohh, I never heard that? Are the boys always good looking? Maybe I will come to visit you… 😛
Well, seriously, I would assume the stereotype comes from the same place that makes our cowboys romantically appealing. Strong, fearless men who live in the wild outdoors are supposed to be attractive. What do you think? (Not abou…[Read more]

@seekjustice So, I watched it for fun, just to see what it would say, though I already had a pretty good idea. Don’t worry, it didn’t scare me, though. 😛 I’m a country girl, and have had copperhead snakes fall from the ceiling and found in the dryer amongst the clean clothes, so the pictures of the snakes didn’t seem abnormally dangerous. Bu…[Read more]

*pulls beanie down over frostbitten ears*
Well, it shouldn’t be! There’s so much to love about Australia. Such as the weather. Which is always warm and sunny. And the wildlife which is always friendly and the boys which are apparently always goodlooking?? (I honestly have no idea where that stereotype came from. Its the weirdest…[Read more]
