    there are signs in the Salt Lake City airport that detail what to do to ensure you don't die when confronted by a grizzly bear. that means it's not uncommon. that kind of says a lot about Utah doesn't it

    Does Australia have signs detailing all of the millions of things that are hazardous to human life there? Like, you get to Australia and there's a sign with a picture of the continent, a big red x through it, with a label "WARNING: this entire country is trying to kill you, turn around now and fly back to where you came from"

    Because if not... there should be

    I can tell you we do have dangerous creatures, but they're mainly a concern if you're in like the middle of the country with all that red deserty-ness. Not so much if you're in the major cities like where I am.

    In fact I often see jokes here about the "go back to where you came from" thing that it's just unbelievable.

    Australia is way to big to be just desert. We could have do so much with all that land.

    i am kind of skittish when it comes to large bodies of water, but i'll be damned if i don't toss myself into the Coral Sea to check out the reefs.

    i have always wanted to visit Australia just for that. *^*

    Joking aside I'd actually love to visit Australia some day. It's near the top of my list of countries to spend a month in.

    Oh wow, you should definitely come here one day. I do feel kinda pissed that I live in the most expensive of the capital cities though, but at the same time it's got the most iconic landmarks of the capitals.

    We are smaller than you think, but there's still sizable amounts of urban land so you could always focus more on that as opposed to the desert.

    The water is the thing you need to enjoy here. In fact many flock over to the watery areas in the summer.

    I never really got to sight see in Utah, but I had a layover there and flying over was so beautiful and the view from the airport was incredible too.

    Also I had an interview yesterday and the more I think about it the more I really don't know how well I did loooool

    I know it goes without saying, but try to not think about it as much. Trust me when I say everyone starts to nitpick at how they did after an interview (hell that happened to me way to many times to count.) There's no real reason to stress yourself over it; if anything, use this as a learning opportunity to not make the same mistakes twice!

    Though you won't have any mistakes to learn from as you'll land this job (:

    I don't know that I'd ever move to a permanent location outside of the US unless I had secured a job somewhere else. However I would love to live in any state besides Indiana after I get through college. Colorado also has some really pretty mountains.

    A crush of mine from high school moved from Colorado Springs to Provo and was telling me all about how Utah sucked compared to CO. I hold the Springs in a high regard anyway if that's any consolation

    Apparently you'll be an outcast if you value looks in Utah. They really are all about what's inside, or maybe they're okay with being unsightly idk lmao

    Most of her complaints revolved around being judged and socially tormented. Which is strange hearing that because she was the dame at our school. go figure

    I would think that would be a more prominent thing in country places like Kentucky where half of the population is related by blood.

    Stereotype of the day.

    no worries Asyl! i'm sure you did great!
    we are harsh on ourselves this is true, but outward people are generally less critical.. unless they just suck or something.

    my step mom's from Utah and due to the fact that she's married to my dad i'd say that's pretty true lmao.

    Did you have a layover in Salt Lake? Was it at night? Holy hell is that city beautiful from the air at night time.

    But the actual airport is SO small for an international airport. I was so shocked. Maybe it comes from the fact that I came from Philly, which has a pretty huge one.
