Long Distance Friendships :-(

[SourRoses]

Hi Flare!

I've never heard of the borderless Europe thing.... but thats because they don't teach us anything about other countries here! Another reason I want to become an Aussie. For Danielle - I was telling Liz I want to get my Aussie dual citizenship... since my mom is an Aussie, I have until I'm 25 to get it.

Then I wont be able to pick on mom anymore :-( For growing uo upside down. I've never been to England Liz. I wanted to.... I also want to go to Scotland, or Ireland.. or wherever and see all the pretty castles!
My house that I build someday is going to look like a castle crossed with a Disney palace. Forgive me for my silliness.. but its what I want..

Danielle... lets go grab up our two friends and go join Liz in Aussieland!

But Im not eating Vegemite.. or meat pies.. or sausage rolls! Ill take the Violet crumbles any day though

 

[ChooksinChoppers]

Not even sausage rolls????

sorry you can't be an Aussie then

 

[SourRoses]

Okay...

Heres Firefly

Heres the bubblenest he blew 4 hours after getting here from Thailand...

His colors change as the light hits him... those are just some of the photos of him.

His bubblenest tonight is even bigger!

Now THAT's a Betta! Isn't he georgous? I am about ready to neuter him if he doesnt hurry up and make babies

Hey Squishy! I love your betta. Isn't he gorgeous?

Those colours are absolutely stunning! Just another reason why I would love to have one

Oh, we don't learn much about other countries here either. Even our geography text-books are specially Australia-oriented

Thankfully though, I've lived in many places and like to keep up to date with world news, so I'm not toooo ignorant

Well, on the fact that oil's dropped below $100 finally anyhow

Scotland is amazing! I remember the green lushness. Everything in the UK is so green it's unbelievable

You should definitely go if you get the chance! Although I'd stay away from London - I'm usually a big city fan, but historic buildings get on my nerves for some unknown reason! And the pollution is something strong in that city, although it might've gotten better over the years I've been here

I hate Vegemite.

Does that disqualify me to become an Aussie? Hmm.... let me have a think about it. Maybe someone will come over and cancel my visa soon

 

[LittleChickenLady]

Your fish are so pretty! Where'd you get them?

Can you send me a fish?! I'd loooove that!

You'd have to tell me how to take care of it, so I don't accidentally kill it like I did my others.
Or, maybe you can tell me how to do it, and I'll just go to the petstore and buy one for ten bucks or something.

 

[SourRoses]

Of course you can be a Aussie Flare! Me too!
I dream of seeing Scotland one day.. make my plans for my castle.. hehehe!


Danielle...

Of course I can tell you how to take care of it! If I get some babies.. Of course I will send you one!

Mine didn't come from the petstore.. they dont have the best quality there.. allthough we do have one or two petstore halfmoons of mottled colors.
Firefly & Tinkerbell and most of the others I got off of Aquabid (like Ebay but for fish)... and I bought them from people in Thailand. Expensive. Perhaps it was strange of me to spend $200 on 4 fish... but...

Thats Squishy for you!

I am on my way!

nahh! I expect vegemite was before your time

but sheesh what are these Aussie Mums teaching their kids

It's VERY good for you

Even our geography text-books are specially Australia-oriented

Lucky you! When I was in school back then

They only taught us ENGLISH history! I remember to this day having to draw period costumes for english class...true dinks​

Uh oh! I should probably get scared then!

I know a lot of people who don't like Vegemite. The taste never appealed to me, there's nothing even half that salty over in Europe, unless you count the fries they make at McDonalds...

Oh you actually had to take history?

Hehe! Nah, history was one of our electives, and I ditched it as soon as I possibly could. Why spend time revelling in the past, huh? Modern conveniences all the way!
