I saw a girl with that on her t-shirt this morning and well it’s kinda funny. I’ve met exactly 3 Canadian Girls since I’ve been here and none of them I would say were heartbreakers.
#1- Sylvane who I kept accidentally calling Setine (Eric said that Setine was the name of some character in Moulin Rouge) anyways she was French-Canadian and our roommate for a few days in the hostel, she spoke a limited amount of English and always said it slow which made it sound like maybe she was a bit slow if you know what I mean, although if I was trying to speak a foreign language that’s probably how I’d sound too. She was always exasperated and would put her hand on her forehead and say..with a French-english accent..”Oh my god..I hate to backpack, I hate the beach, I hate to work, oh if there’s a party count me out!” I swear she hated every reason one would come to Australia..still not sure why she’s here. Also when she found out we were American she asked us straightaway if we’d ever been to Las Vegas to see Celine Dion that for 21 years she has been the number one fan of Celine..I just looove her she’d say..just like Celine would say it I bet. Last we heard she was living in some girls dorm and trying to get a job at the Body Shop.
#2-Pissy Missy-not sure what her real name is but well she always looks super pissy and I’ve heard her snap at people on several occasions. She works at one of the most popular backpacker bars in Sydney as a bartender. One night after I’d seen her pissy on several occasions me and a friend of mine went in for $11 pizza and jug of beer and got to chatting with pissy. Turns out she’s the only full time employee at the bar and she’s working to save money b/c she wants to get her PhD in marine biology here. During the conversation I discovered why missy is pissy A) she works at a super busy bar at least 40 hours a week and they don’t’ get tips here so the pay must suck. B) always dealing with lots of drunk people and not able to go out yourself ever! C) She lives in a house with 17 other people and 2 bathrooms, which she said she had to b/c that was the only way she could afford her own room and she can’t stand to room with another person D) apparently the bar closes at 4am and she never gets home til like 6am. I’m convinced that if she got another job she wouldn’t be so pissy and perhaps could one day be a heartbreaker.
#3-Julie, another French-Canadian that was our roommate in the hostel. She had lots of attitude, always yelling at our Irish roommate Viv who didn’t quite know what to make of her/probably couldn’t understand her english so well. Julie hates Sydney or so she told us after she’d been here for all of 30 minutes and she was getting out as soon as possible. She met some other French-Canadian girls and they all decided to go up to Darwin and pick Mangoes…b/c they could make lots of cash (as she said it she kept rubbing her hands together). They were taking a bus up there, Darwin is far probably at least 1,000 miles/20 hour bus ride and it’s super hot and humid up there, lots of bugs and what not and I’m sure the mango picking is horrible..I bet Julie is mad with herself that she went to pick mangoes, although I’m sure she does enjoy rolling in all that dough.
