I thought you were kidding. Then, I read the article.

Why would stuff give john key the last word in an article about literature, literature awards, and an authors feelings - 3 things which he knows little about and whose opinion in unqualified garbage?

We can all agree that students, particularly first years, are awful. They're like tourists except they hang around and continue to be awful for months at a time.

O-Week is the worst time of year. Can we just skip to week three when people stop showing up for class already?

I catch the bus from Howick to the CBD every morning, and it takes at least an hour. If I try and do it between the hours of 4 and 6 pm, it frequently takes double that.

John Key was just at the cafe where I'm having breakfast. He looked like he was having a really poo poo day.

The only politician I've ever seen in a cafe is David Seymour. He looked just as bizarre IRL.

The entire class demanded that we do the Tudor one for our Level 3 history. The teacher ignored us because she understood that it would be important for the middle class white Catholic School kids to learn something about our own goddamn county, no matter how "boring" the kids expect it to be.

Though the buses are still lovely, being able to use them all, and the trains, with one card is pretty nice.
