Thankfully, I still have a year left of school 🙂 So.. I guess I’ll start worrying in about 11 months.

First off, what the heck are y’all doing with your time? A month or so out of school and my brain is turning to mush.

Hi, Ms M from Brisbane Queensland. Just got back from a short stint in Dubai as an Intern.

Was very interesting experience but unfortunately the economic crisis is hitting everyone badly over there. Lets just say that i probably left just as it was getting pretty bad.

Hi Michael, Went to school in Perth, eh? What did you think of it? Thinking of moving to Perth and doing some teaching and curious what UWA’s like from the inside!!!

I did hear about it! I don’t know who is going to design the temple but I hope they rely on the beautiful and rich history and architecture for inspiration. Can’t wait to see the finished product!
