The Scantily Clad German and The Austrian Math Genius

Alright so I'm back in Brissy and it's great, hotter than hell but great, luckily I'm staying at a hostel with a pool so that's been fab. Not to mention that the pool is located in the hostel bar, so it's like pool day all the time! This time I'm staying in a 4 share dorm, one of my roommates is of course a scantily clad german girl, she's always running around in bra and undies and yes it's hot but damn throw on some shorts, also I had a full conversation with her the other day whilst she was wearing no top whatsoever..don't engage me in conversation when I can see your boobs!! Other than that she's very nice and excited to practice her english with me, she came over here as an Au Pair, and when she told me I immediately thought of some shady Au Pair situation where she ran around the house with no top or something. Also she has trouble saying the word suit, like swim suit, she just can't say it, which is a source of frustration for her as you can imagine, and she made me sound out the word suit for her about 10 times and she tried to say it..but alas..no suit for her!!!

Now for the Austrian girl, when she told me she was from Austria I wanted to sing Sound of Music. When she first came in the room she was asking me if I had an adapter but she didn't know the word for adapter and she just kept making this weird motion which I eventually figured out was plugging something in, so I thought she was looking for the plug so I showed her where it was..nope she wanted something else..what was it?? Anyways after a painful song and dance I figured out she needed an adapter and you know I must have been off yesterday because I should have said no I don't have one, but instead I said I have one but it won't work because it's US to Australia and you have a Euro plug. This of course was not understood and so I ended up having to dig for my adapter and then do a demo to show that it wouldn't work..honestly I think I'm going to acquire the patience of Jobe before I leave this country. So turns out that she's here on a math scholarship of all things to QUT where I go to school and since she just got here yesterday and has limited english skills she's a bit flustered and obviously needs to find a place to live just like myself. So me and Austrian Marian are new BFF for the moment, we've a date to go look for accomodation later this afternoon and we're going to the international students party together on Thurs. Also she is scantily clad as well..maybe it's an Austra-German phenomenon, because none of the Brits that have stayed in the room or myself have spent the day running around in our bras and undies, or perhaps they are just so happy that it's not snowing the feeling to shed clothes becomes overwhelming.
