to my fellow students

you know you have studied in australia when..


Tim tams have become a new food group

Vegemite - try it once, maybe never again

You are seriously impressed with the selection of M&Ms

You use "oi" correctly in a sentence and smile

You have more than 2 hours of class a day and complain

You coordinate your weekend outings around buying just one day pass for the bus

Reese's cups have the trading value of black market kidneys

McCafe - enough said

You have travelled more across Australia than your home country

You have never lined dried your laundry but do now just to save a $1 coin

Peanut butter becomes your life, you hoard it and dinner time gets violent if it's in limited supply

At first, the tropical birds waking you up at 6am were cool, tropical even. Now, you wish you brought your BB gun on the plane...

You have encountered spiders larger than a small dinner plate - and lived to tell the tale

You live for Thursdays - pasta night and taco day

You move from being poor, to being broke, to being in debt in a few short weeks

HEAPS

You are more commited to state of origin events than most sporting games back home








im sorry this is pretty much for my fellow students haha most of this probably is very very forgien to you...and it should be. haha
