Team Australia new recruits 06/06/18 and why do physios hate people?

in #teamaustralia6 years ago (edited)

Hey Aussies et al. I hope everyone is having a good day. I just went to physio to have my various injuries looked at and now my arm and hamstring hurt. More. I should also be looking forward to a big bruise appearing on my arm, apparently. Why does physio always hurt a lot and make you look like you've lost a fight before it makes you better? Urgh!

Candidate 1

Name and bio

@dunstuff is from the central coast/Newcastle area. He has spent a lot of time on the streets throughout his life. As a result, he would like to do a Diploma of Community Services specialising in youth services, but has not yet found a placement for the required hours.

Intro post here.

Fun fact

"If you're wondering why I went with a pony for an avatar, it's cos I have a face like Sarah Jessica Parker."

Nothing wrong with that. I'm a big fan of SJP. I loved Sex and the City as much as the next woman. Possibly more.

Candidate 2

Name and bio

@mumma-monza is @philippekiene's wife and lives in Siem Reap, Cambodia. She is a pre-K teacher at an International Academy and loves photography.   

Intro post here

Fun Fact 

"I enjoy big cups of coffee to get me through my days."

I think a lot of people enjoy big cups of coffee to get them through their days.

Candidate 3

Name and bio

@lasertx3 is a licensed electrician from Sydney. He's into pets, training for Spartan races, cars, and house renos.

Intro post here

Fun fact

"I can hum and whistle at the same time."

What? How is that even possible?

Candidate 4

Name and bio

@niuadventure is from Sydney. She's a mum who likes cooking, baking, and photography.

Intro post here

Fun fact

"I almost always have either my camera or GoPro with me when I'm out and about, because I like to record footage from my day to day life and make them into videos."

Well, people like vlogs. Plus if you stick 'em on dtube you might get a sweet dtube upvote.

Candidate 5

Name and bio

@idikuci is from Brisbane and a PhD dropout. He helps run comedyopenmic on steemit. 

Intro post here

Fun fact

"I once saw Ron Jeremy in real life in a hotel. I nearly went up to shake his hand... then I thought better of it. I know where that hand's been."

I'd never heard of Ron Jeremy until I googled him to see who you were talking about. For anyone else not in the know, he's a porn star, filmmaker, actor, and stand-up comedian.

Candidate 6

Name and bio

@stuffing is @galenkp's mate and from Adelaide. She is of the view that the experiences we gain are basically a whole bunch of stuff we jam into our ever-bulging life bag. Hence her name.

Intro post here

Fun fact

"I like to see how long I can go only on water, so far my maximum has been three days."

Cool. Someone was doing a water challenge here a couple of months ago. I can't remember who, but I feel like he did at least 10 days or two weeks or something. It was a while.

Candidate 7

Name and bio

@aidab21 lives in Sydney. She is from Argentina and moved to Australia as a teenager. She learnt English initially from reading and translating Little Golden Books. (Hmm, maybe that's what I should do to improve my Spanish!) 

Intro post here.

Fun fact

"I love colouring in and gardening."

These are two things I think I would like if I had more time, pencils, and had a garden (or at least a balcony).

Congratulations everyone, you're now part of Team Australia. 


The rules for joining Team Australia

If you’re not yet a member and want to be, this is what you need to do:

  1. Vote here for our resident steemit witness and our Minister for Welfare @ausbitbank.
  2. Send me your introduction post so I can find out a bit about you. If you’re new to steemit you'll have to write one so use the introduceyourself and teamaustralia tags to help boost your following. Use this handy guide by @teamsteem if you don't know what to write.
  3. If it’s not mentioned in your introductory post, tell me which city and country you’re in, cos let's face it, a lot of us live in Australia's fourth largest city—London. You need to have a connection to Australia to join.
  4. Tell me a fun fact about yourself. This can be anything. For example, maybe you have eight kids and three dogs, or you rode your bike across America, or you won the blue ribbon for javelin throwing at sports day back in high school, or Toadie came into the pub you work at one day and you served him a beer, or, maybe you can fit 55 maltesers in your mouth like Ed Sheeran can. It doesn’t matter what it is, I want a fun fact about you! The more fun, the better.
  5. Regularly check the Team Australia and Australia tags and upvote/follow the content you like. You can show your support by following the centerlink curation trail in steemauto. Instructions are here.
  6. Comment below or DM me in PAL-Discord that you want to join.

Once I receive this information I will try my best to write a good introductory paragraph about you for the official Team Australia membership updates. So the better your information is, the better I can make you sound. Where relevant, please use the teamaustralia and australia tags to promote your work. I will try and post weekly updates.

Well if it fixes all my things, I'll be happy. I had a lot of needles stuck in me today though, with electricity to give them a kick! Hence, the residual pain.

............ nooooooooo that sounds super uncomfortable~ (im afraid of needles) i hope you wont be sore for too long :< and yes, i hope it shall fix all of your things, also !!!

Aw, thanks for the vibes. I hate needles too (and used to be quite good at passing out after), but this actually wasn't too bad. They are acupuncture needles so it was better.
