2-year-old newbie

this might come across as a little weird for those who know my join date (somewhere in january 08 i believe), but i still consider myself a newbie! i haven't really had the chance to introduce myself or to say hi to many users so i thought i'd make a belated newbie thread (hope that's okay!)

random things you may like to know about me:
- yes, i am an aussie
- stemming from ^^, funnily enough i actually work at australia zoo
- i have double-jointed elbows
- i used to have a severe aversion to tomatoes but they're growing on me now
- first-year uni student studying a mixture of business, communications and public relations
- my 1990 volvo was given to me for free (and i love it!)

i'm becoming quite attached to eoff and so i'd like to get to know you all a bit better. ergo, feel free to ask questions, make judgements, give compliments and expect friendship in return : )

Welcome to EoFF, I suppose, missaira!

Is your Volvo 'done up'? Or is that too much of a generalisation of Sunshine Coast drivers? :p

Also, if you're a footy fan. We are officially at war tomorrow. :mad2:

'done up'? haha not at all, my friend. bumps and scratches and dents galore; the old couple that gave it to me taught their three daughters to drive in it so it's had a few mishaps :) the only new thing on/in it is the front left indicator.. i kinda accidentally hit the tray of my dad's ute one day while reversing and smashed it.. the interior's still in pretty good nick though.

as for being at war tomorrow, only if you're an ex-maroon now living in sydney... BLUES ALL THE WAY BABY! :greenie:

You work in a zoo? Do you get to touch penguins? I want to touch a penguin. Not in an inappropriate way or anything, I just want to know what they feel like. :shobon:

Memes are meant to just be spammed until they're not funny anymore.

What's your favorite food??

At least I didn't vote a non-english speaking, action hero to rule over my state. There's not enough petrol in the world to make me as dumb as a Californian.

unfortunately we don't have penguins at australia zoo, although that would be awesome :) i think they'd feel rubberyish.
