Things I Like About Australia

Sometimes, I need to make lists to remind myself of things. Tonight, I need to make a list of the things I like here so I can convince myself it's worth staying. :-)

Things I Like About Australia (Explained):

1. Tim Tams. Delightful little chocolate cookies at 2 dollars a pack. Delish.
2. Kangaroos.
3. The lack of pennies-- no pennies in the coin system. Amazing!
4. Havianas -- The flip flop brand here...unlike any other I've experienced...and I love flip flops.
5. Tasmanian Feta Cheese -- Amazing. Enough said.
6. Wine Science Second Years -- delightful group of people.
7. Wine tasting as part of my curriculum. Ahhh, fantastic.
8. Selected Slang Words/Phrases: Good On Ya (Nice Job!), You're a legend (You rock!), Bugger! (Shit!)
9. Sunshine
10. Bundaberg Rum-- mmmmm tasty!
11. Cooper's Pale Ale -- I will hurt for this beer when I move away from here.
12. Steph, Jer Bear, Nathan, Megan, Melissa, MJ, Marissa, Jacob, Michelle, Declan, Rob -- I would say that those people make up my favorite people
13. Knowing what happens on all of the TV shows because they are 4 months behind and hanging it above their heads....very fun.
14. Telling Australians that their education system is funny. Who sets "passing" as 50% and actually let's people graduate with it? Come on now. Would you want your doctors and nurses to only know 50%? I don't think so, so I love picking on them.
15. NO autodrip coffee. Only espresso. Fantastic.

That is all.
