    I'm going to try to go to Austraila!

    I just went to a general information meeting about doing a study abroad in Austraila (Fall 07' semester). I think it'd be sweet!! it's pretty expensive though, it's $3,000 more a semester and my dad isnt to happy with that, so I gotta pocket up the difference he says if i really wanna go.
    Anyone live/been/know anything about Sydney?

    Congrats bro, I bet you will have a blast! That is the one regret I have. My college had a great semester abroad program, I didn't do. I regret it so much now, since I know it will be a while till I can travel.

    I wonder how long the flight is.

    I figure i'll take a $5,000 student loan that will cover spending money and flight

    thats an unbelievably long time on a plane. I can barely stand the 8-9 hour flight to eastern europe. i don't like flying.

    Australia is cool, love the laid back lifestyle, the the beach, the pacific and the cosmopolitan women. Probably the country I would move to over any other place in the world

    I can do fine over here in US not getting murdered by a pack of venemous beetles. Doesnt the tape worm originate in Australia too. The land of murderous insects and all?

    Have to agree with Aus, I am from Melbourne but Sydney is a gorgeous city. As far as no competition for women, well, a bit of a retarded comment, but if you have the body, you will have fun thats for sure. Now just remember that Sydney is like SF, its the gay capitol of Australia so be carefull where you take your shirt off.

    You will have a blast, of that I have no doubt !!!

    Yeah right, you just get murdered by people in the US. At least Australia has some serious gun control. Like they are totally banned.

    Never ceases to amaxe me these shows. Most Australians have never seen these things. However Sydney, and only a certain part of Sydney, is renowned for having the worlds deadliest spider. Its called a Funnel Web Spider. If you dont get the antivenine within two hours of getting the bite then say bye bye.
