Law School: Love or Hate it?
Throughout high school, students wanting to go into law are told all about how competitive it is, the difficulty, the amount of reading required and that the slim chances of getting into part two and beyond. As a result, I had my eyes set on one thing, and that was...
First v Second
Looking back on first year, only positives come to my mind. Whether I have blocked out the bad memories of the stress of trying to get into law, late night assignments or homesickness or the fun of living within a few metres of all my friends in a new city as a...
reasons why YOU need to come to open day

Friendships for dummies
Now before you start calling me a dummy back, let me clarify that it’s just a reference to the ‘for dummies’ instructional books series 😂 However a better title might be ‘Friendships for dummies, from a dummy, because honestly, I don’t know what I’m talking about'....

SURVIVING MY FIRST MONTH AT ELAM
Straight outta high school, straight outta the cage that NCEA has put us “secondary school artists” in. Coming from a school in East Auckland with 350 kids in our year, there were 20 kids in our art class, three of us ended up going to art school. That is, only...
The Great Return
“You lot are always on holidays”, “do you even get any work done”, “just wait till you are in the real world”. All statements I have heard my whole life from unfortunate souls who are in full-time employment whilst I’m living the ‘best days of my life’ in the...
