awe- it's so sad! But I really like the setup, you have an impressive rhyme scheme.

Wow! That was pretty good. I liked the repetition used in a couple of the lines. Very good. Keep writing!
Well, you wanted to know about Australia ... well, it's pretty cool, but not everyone speaks like Steve Irwin ... actually, I don't think that I've ever watched his show, only seen him in an interview ... but I think that the stunt he pulled with his new baby was awful. Nobody should do that to a child.
Anyway, what was I actually talking about? Accents. Yes. Anyway, NOBODY (Well, at least not in the cities) speaks with that really awful broad accent you hear on TV and stuff when people are trying to impersonate Australians. It's very rare to hear somebody talk like that, unless you go out into the country or something.
What else? Um, there are a lot of really cool natural things around, like the Great Barrier Reef up in Queensland, and Uluru (You know that huge red rock you sometimes see on ads, standing in the middle of desert and dried grass?) in Alice Springs and then there are thing like the Aboriginal paintings and stuff, they're also pretty good. I also heard that there's a rock somewhere in Western Australia that does something cool ... I can't remember what ...
Anyway, it's generally a pretty nice country, and pretty great to live in. But pretty ordinary. The cities are quite small and it's only got a population of 20 million or so, despite how big it is. I think the problem is that there's quite a lot of desert, and there's a LOT of erosion and salinity, so heaps of the farm land can't be used to it's full potential, and also there's a bit of a drought ... the dams where I live are only, like, 25% full or something horrific like that. I can't remember exactly how much. So we have water restrictions.
Anyway, I think that's enough for now, so I'll leave you in peace for the moment. If there is anything else you want to know though, email me and I'll tell ya. Or review me. Whichever, I don't mind.
