petone college, as of 2006

Block from the former Hutt Valley Memorial College (aka Petone College)

The School has been closed and practically deserted for nearly 10 years now, this is where i spent my High School years. If there had happened to be a nuclear power station disaster nearby combined with the fact that the lawns are not still mowed, I would affectionately name it my own personal Chernobyl. The place sure had an eerie empty feel about it when i visited it last weekend.

Thanking you all.

I thought I would take a moment here, to record for prosperity, the great little surprise party that you guys all threw for me last Friday. Can't ask for a better group of friends.

Few shoutouts are in order - My brother and partner in crime Phil, awesome drawing and a wicked little flier there man. Rachel, big appreciation for taking the massive bundle of singing balloons up the hill for me, whilst having to put up with the singing birthday balloon's resounding opera recital all the way up the hill on a Friday night. Rowan and Megan for designing the secret.... (hey Megan... does this mean you still got the A+ for your assignment??) and of course all my friends and colleagues who were able to make it. Also thanks to Bryce at Sandwiches, as well as the wonderful bar staff.

Not to mention the great music on the night by P-Bass Expressway, Timmy Schumacher and Kyla.

Thanks all.
