Easy mate, easy. Deep breath....hold it...now relax... you'll be ok.
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

Haha I wish I was starting fulltime work tomorrow. I f'in hate uni, particularly after seven consecutive years with one to go...made even worse by the fact that I have a semi-grown up job part-time.

Where is your new job? Least you have a holiday to Melbourne to look forward to!

Actually re-phrase. I loved being a student at Otago (I did an easy degree and just had a good time). Architecture school is lame, and hard, and time consuming...

Enjoy the job mate but not a place for any sexist or chauvenist jokes. And dont ask "how many feminists does it take to change a light bulb - That's not funny!!"

become the office slut, and sleep with anyone you can.
 
work is over-rated, and only for the stupid or the weird.

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

Anyway, already found some phoenix fans.  one is even a close relation to Covs.

Haha I'm not surprised. I did a jobs.govt.nz profile thing with a girl from Policy and she mentioned that they didn't have any males in the Policy team. The poor girl got so much sh*t from the two guys from SCC and MoT.
