Mums Birthday
Well it is mum's birthday on saturday so we are going to go see the umbilicl brothers which is very very cool. i was also wondering if people could comment on their opinions on the identity of australia as a people and as a nation.
"i was also wondering if people could comment on their opinions on the identity of australia as a people and as a nation." That sounds like a scam to get us to help you with an assignment. LOL. I firmly believe that Australian culture is a pretty even blend of American culture and European Influence. Perhaps there is an element of Asian influence in us too, but I can't comment on that as I have never visited Asia. As a people, one of the most dramatic cultural aspects we have gained from the USA is their work ethic. In the USA and Australia, companies expect more and more from their workers, I found in Germany, this cutlure seems to be not as extream. As a nation, we are very un-patriotic. I think maybe this is because we are so isolated, we don't see how proud some other people are about their countries. Anyways, I think I am blabbing now, so I will stop. Hope I dont sound too stupid. lol
