So I finished my bachelors degree in science. Mum and dad came to Dunedin for the ceremony and it was great, despite my face getting a few grazes from playing rugby in the morning.

After our trip to Tunnel Beach, Dad and I headed off to check out the Dunedin Peninsula. I was hoping there would be lots of penguins and seals. We saw a seal but mainly it was just cold.

Dad and I headed out to Tunnel Beach for a little look around. It was amazing. It's a shame I've been in Dunedin for five years and I've only Just starting seeing all the impresive sights.

I was just playing around on the dunes. It was pretty good conditions for a little photo-shoot. What can I say. I did my best.

Cape Reinga is the northern most tip of New Zealand. It has some pretty spectacular views and despite the weather change I got a few cool photos.

We went away for a team building retreat and some leadership training. It was absolutely incredible. One of the best times ever!

So Ninety Mile beach is actually only 55 miles long but its
it still looks pretty amazing, especially at sunset.

Mum and I went to visit Shaun in Melbourne. While we were there I got to catch up with Mel and we checked out the Melbourne Zoo. It was pretty good but they didn't have a Liger. The penguins made up for it though.

I was baptised! A group of us from church headed out to St Clair beach to stand up for our beliefs. Even massive waves couldn't detract from this amazing occasion.

The ball was a great night. Anne, whom I met through student life invited me for a fun night out with the foreigners. Kate was there and we had lots of fun.

During our time in Thailand we stayed in Phuket. Phuket was still rebuilding after the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004. Definately my favourite part of the trip.

I went on a vacation to Thailand with my family. We spent the first 4 nights in Bangkok shopping. It was amazing to see a culture so different to my own.

Student life member's from Otago and Canterbury universities headed to Lyttelton for the annual conference. I had an amazing time and met some great people.

My flatmate Philipa decided it would be funny to attack me with a bucket of water... so I covered her car in paper.
