  1. Honestly dont take offense, language barriers cause so many problems.

    When it comes down to it, if you in a country to study then yeh you will get bored. If you're there to have fun you wont. Its what you make of it.

    We know we're the lucky country if others dont see that its their loss.


  2. I can't see your page cause I am at work, but if you think you should be offended, then why dont' you just delete the messages and tell whoever sent them that you didn't appreciate them and to not comment again!

  3. i;m aussie too .. and no it wasn't rude.. don't be offended.. if people go to a foreign country for study (without the comfort of their parents and friends around), it is of course boring. i think that's what the person meant.

    edit:  also, you said in your comment back to the person: "If Australia was boring 3 million people wouldn`t live here!"

    .. Australia has more like 22 million people, not 3 million .. just thought i'd get that clear.

  4. Hard to say but do not take on heart

  5. my virus thingy blocked ur site for some reason.. its 'dangerous' according to my computer.. lol..

  6. I couldn't get to your page, but I guess that some foreign students were saying that Australia was boring. That's OK! Just because we love Australia doesn't mean everyone has to. It might be boring by their standards. So, let them go back and live in their own country. I love Australia and I would never live anywhere else!

    (ps - it's right, not wright)

  7. i dont understand? I dont see how the comments are bad? They said 'flirt', 'smile'???

    I hope this wasn't a ploy to get you page viewed total up??

  8. ...and the U.S. has 330 million.  Being bored isn't a function of population density - it's about making a connection with the place you are in and the people you are surrounded by.  From my own experience, foreign exchange students have it pretty rough (especially the ones that come from non-English speaking countries), there's the cultural barriers, and occasionally a language barrier as well, and they wind up spending an awful lot of time just trying to keep from feeling overwhelmed by it all.

    That can be pretty boring, trust me.

    So don't take it personally. They're not trying to insult you or the delightful continent you live upon.
