not Hamilton?
It's nothing personal...
The kiwi "OE", it's a rite of passage (I'd
skipped the yardie at my 21st) so it's time for
mine. Aussie is the first stop, why? Cause
it's not Hamilton...
Why not Hamilton, bro? It's choice as...
Hamilton's not just drunk students, fog, bridges, rugby
(+ rugby heads), and hick town with a river. But it has
been my home for the last 3.5 years and there's
something's I'm not staying for:
- Hamilton where? Oh, H-Town, The Tron, Hammz,
Hammy, Hammy-hole. No matter what name it's given, if
ya from outta town you don't wanna live here.
Yeah, I only live here for my studies aye...
- Left wanting, Hams has no coast and no culture, yeah
maybe as the Uni advertises we're close to everything
other cities has to offer but isn't Hamilton's slogan
"More than you'd expect" is that
disappointment they're referring to?
- Fog, weather doesn't matter that much to pc geek but
hands up who likes mould?
Yeah but what about:
- Whanau, chur chur, I'm gonna miss my family and
extended family of friends I'm leaving behind. Will
look for a flat with a fold out couch cause ya'll
better come visit!
- Cocoon, no not the 1985 movie, Wintec. Transitioning from the real world to working in the no blame society of this organisation has been like working in cotton wool (strange mental picture there), but I’m gonna miss the people and the “receptionist” position I had.
Well, I'm going anyway, Ka kite ano Hamilton, Gidday
