61 Thoughts Every Australian Has When The Temperature Drops

    Why is it so bloody cold?!

    1. Ah, it's morning. Time to wake up.

    2. Why is it so cold? I thought I lived in Australia.

    3. Ugh, getting out of bed is the hardest part.

    4. Five more minutes to enjoy this cosiness a little while longer...

    5. Oh my god — now I'm running late.

    6. Did I leave the heater on all night? Better check.

    7. Nope, it's just freezing in here.

    8. Seriously, why don't our houses have better insulation?

    9. The British, ruining things yet again. 

    10. Okay, time to make some coffee.

    11. Oh, the warmth of that first sip. Bliss.

    12. Too bad I'm still bloody cold!

    13. Maybe I should invest in some thermal socks.

    14. I wonder if they make thermal onesies for adults.

    15. Focus! I need to get ready for the day.

    16. Let's brave the icy bathroom.

    17. Hot water, please don't fail me now.

    18. Ah, the blissful warmth of a shower.

    19. Why can't I just live in here forever?

    20. Here we go again — seduced and trapped by warmth.

    16. Where did I put my big coat? I can't find it anywhere.

    17. Ah, there it is, tucked away in the closet.

    18. Smells a little musty, but warmth perseveres! 

    19. Can I wear three layers of clothing without looking ridiculous?

    20. Who cares — it's cold out there!

    21. I hope my car starts on the first try.

    22. Oh man, my windshield has got ice all over it.

    23. Ok, what was that thing I saw on TikTok?

    24. That's right, no hot water.

    23. Great, now my fingers are frozen.

    24. But at least I'll be able to see.

    25. Is it just me, or does the steering wheel feel like an ice cube?

    26. Note to self: invest in driving gloves.

    27. It's sunny outside! Maybe it won't be that cold.

    28. Nope, still freezing. I was wrong.

    29. Wait, did I forget to turn off the heater at home?

    30. No, surely not.

    31. Unless...

    32. No I definitely turned it off. 

    33. Of course I have to leave my car as soon as the heater started working. 

    34. Ah, at least the office is nice and toasty.

    35. Why is it so goddamn hot in here?

    36. Great, now I'm sweating through my layers.

    37. Should've worn shorts and a singlet to work.

    38. Are my colleagues secretly enjoying this heat torture?

    39. This excessive warmth is killing my productivity.

    40. I can't believe I'm dreaming of winter chill right now.

    41. Time to head home. 

    42. Oh god, I forgot how bloody cold it was out here.

    43. Traffic again? Seriously?

    44. I should've brought a blanket for the car.

    45. I can't wait to defrost.

    46. Finally, home sweet freezing home.

    47. Time to crank up the heater and put on my cosiest clothes.

    48. Ah, warmth is slowly returning to my body.

    49. What's for dinner? Something hearty and warm, please.

    50. It's so cold that even my thoughts are shivering.

    51. I need to find a way to move to a tropical paradise.

    52. But then, I'd probably miss the seasons. 

    53. LOL, like Australia has traditional seasons.

    54. Oh my friends are going out...

    55. How nice for them. 

    56. I'm staying right here in my Oodie.

    57. No amount of socialising is worth leaving this warmth and going through all that twice in one day. 

    58. But I might miss out on the vibes. 

    59. Nah, Oodie wins.

    60. Time for bed, I guess.

    61. How many days until spring again?
