Understand I've never, in my life, studied French.

I think you're saying this:

I understand Greek. I am Australian, living in Sydney. I work in Cooma. Something (ice?) is very delicious.

OR... the first three sentences could be (based of my translation of French):

Capisco un Greco. Sono Australiano, io vivo a Sydney. Lavoro a Cooma. L'ghiaccio e molto squisita. (Excuse my bad grammar - it's been almost 10 years since my last Italian language lesson and I didn't use Babelfish. At all.)

Languages are good :D

Although, I have the fun task of re-learning Mandarin, which I have not used since I was 12 (back when I was almost conversational), before August - or at least relearning enough to get by.

Wow. Restecp! Mandarin is all kinds of hard...

I have a habit of speaking in a drawn out monotone... I don't know if I'd actually get my mouth around a tonal language... :D

Sometimes I try to listen to german tv, and again can't tell a word apart from another! I was wondering if I could get a cheap mp3 player and some audio-lessons to carry around and listen... but it seems audio lessons are about 3x more expensive than the player on it's own, so, no. XD

Je travaille pour un homme à Cooma. Tu n'as pas installer le Clavier français!

Ou, tu peux utilise le "Alt" et le "Numberpad"

Je ne sais pas les mots pour cet objets...

à = ALT+0224
ç = ALT+0231

etc

mais, je préfère installer le clavier française. Demande-moi comment, à plus tard!

it's funny. I haven't done French in 10 years and I could still understand what you wrote perfectly. I thought I'd forgotten it all.
