How awesome were these in primary school?

I got a three pack of them in grade 5, which was cool ’cause I never had good stationery.

Oh, speaking of primary school, has anyone seen that Four ‘n’ Twenty ad with the guys on the building site, and that one guy is like ‘Oh, that’s Johnno. I’ve known him simce primary school.’ The guy can’t even say ’since’. It’s pretty funny.

Back.

Posted in Australia, Blogs by Daniel85 on February 27th, 2008

Hey.

I’m back in Australia now. Sorry for hardly ever updating the blog. I don’t know if I have the desire to continue it, but I guess I’ll keep it up just in case.

My flight was long and boring, and I got stuck in between two old ladies, which is always fun. One of them was really bitchy and constantly snapping at other passengers and the flight staff. The other one wouldn’t shut up about all the places she’s been. I felt like starting to sing ‘I’ve been everywhere, man’ right in her face.

One thing I noticed on the flight from LA to Melbourne is how ugly Australians are. I hadn’t been around a lot of Australians, obviously, so suddenly being on a plane full of them for 15 hours was an eye-opening experience. Why do all young Australian men (late teens to mid 20s) look like rapists? They all have that smashed-in-the-face-with-a-brick, forty yard stare look to them. Geez… spend a few months overseas and all of a sudden I’ve gone all Germaine Greer/Peter Carey.
