Cool 😀 I’ll finish reading it when I have some time.
Unfortunately, I’ll be off the internet for a bit, but I’ll be on in a few hours.

Just reading your unedited message and laughing. We have our on words for “scanty underwear”, but for whatever reasons thongs is the name for shoes of various descriptions.

Oh, I didn’t see your message till just then! Well, I meant those rubber shoes people wear even though they hurt and are annoying…so, yeah, I guess flip flops (such an inventive name 😛 )
*glances around nervously* Good or bad meaning???
That’s the problem with international chatting. Things can have very different meanings in…[Read more]

@seekjustice Coming back for a minute because I’m going to clarify for all the Americans here that you meant flip-flops or sandals when you said “thongs.” 🙂 They have another meaning in the US.

True. 😀 We went to tropical Australia in winter and we were all wearing shorts and thongs, but the locals were putting on cardigans 😛
Bye!

@seekjustice Haha, but you’ve got to think of it from other perspectives. I have some Alaskan friends who go outside in bare feet when it’s -6 degrees Celsius, and some friends from (I think) some African country who say they shiver in their blankets when it’s 21 degrees Celsius! It all depends on what you’re used to. 😉
I’m going to go now. :…[Read more]

However, if anyone tries to tell you that Australia is always hot, point to me shivering under my blankets with cold hands at 7:45 in the morning 😛
That’s fine 😀

@seekjustice We usually only get to the upper nineties, or upper thirties for you.
Oh, don’t worry about it then. If you’re that close it’s fine, since I have my final exams on Thursday and Friday, so I won’t be able to read it before then.
Oh, and @jenwriter17 Same for you. I REALLY want to read your book, but am going to wait until after finals. 😉

Um…when its summer here it can get up to 45 degrees. Which is…113 Fahrenheit it seems. But usually its around the high 30s. Currently its 4 degrees and it gets much colder than that here. I live in a part of the world that revels in extremes.
I’m hoping to be done with this part tomorrow, but I can’t make any promises 😀

@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!

@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”
