Fun Facts 3

When people here say A to Z
they say A to Zed
not A to Zee.

South Africa TV is like a season or two behind. Example: US is on season 3 of Glee, SA is on season 2.

Apple is not a big thing here. like at all.

I spelled labor labour and didn't even realize it. I think I've been here a while.

Rule: Don't Drink the Water

Status: Broken
It's totally fine, I don't know what all the fuss was about. Plus do you know how much money I'd waste if I bought water bottles...a whole freaking lot.

Oh the weather outside is frightful

so I went to the mall today.

Chirstmas decorations are already up.
As in a giant christmas tree when you first walk in

It's not even Halloween!

It's not even Thanksgiving!

Which granted, they don't celebrate, but still.
It's really freaking early for Christmas.

also. It's starting to get hot out.
Which is a total Christmas contradiction.
But whatever.

Oops, I did it again

This cooking thing.
Oh man.
Did you know if you leave onions and potatoes long enough they start to grow like sprouts or something on them?




At least they are not green this time. I think I'm improving. :)

Ryan Secrest is EVERYWHERE

No seriously.

I know that American pop culture has spread everywhere. People here watch the same tv shows and movies and listen to the same music I do. I'm used to that. What I didn't expect was to turn on the radio and hear- on Joburg's No. 1 hit music station- was Ryan Secreast hosting and talking away. Apparently one of his numerous jobs is hosting a South African radio station 7-10pm mon-fri. I almost fell off my bed I was so surprised. You should have seen my face.

Yeah America is everywhere.
