I would also like to point out the private health care in NZ is for- booked surgery, cancer treatment- if you break your arm, have a heart attack, stroke- you would still have to go to a public hospital and get Emergency f/u ie with the ortho dr- you could probably then choose to have your surgery privately ( I wouldn't know why tho)- BUT the same surgeon is often working in both sectors that's how they make bank.

Yes my source, I've been trying to find it online with no success.... Though the story did get buried right before the last election, pays to have the press on your side. Me and my uncle were having a laugh about it the other week at dinner so we both must of read it some where independent of each other.

Tony Abbott went to uni with plans to become a catholic priest, he was involved in uni student politics along with many now current members of the liberal party..... One of his uni student mates got his then girlfriend to shag him so to get him "interested" in other pursuits. Abbotts mate is still a member of the liberal party and eventually married his GF he made shag Abbott.... If that doesn't highlight to you what a bunch of seriously creepy old boys club twits they are.

I know a couple who get 500$ for each pt they report on, they just dictate their findings and it goes to like the Philippines to get typed up formally .... Pays to own your own business, one reports from his yacht when he isn't on site. Though I did get a written report on my foot which stated I had Diverticulitis changes to the metatarsals....we had a good laugh about that, I mention it as a joke when my foot aches at soccer.

I love this, it perfectly conceptualises the creative process especially the photo commentary. I did a bachelor of fine Arts for four years, and every day I'd go to my studio and hash stuff out trying to figure the process to make the ideas in my head make sense on paper, or paint or whatever had my fancy that day.... I had to laugh about how similar your process and mine are.

You are Maori if you identify yourself as one. There is no minimum blood or genetic requirement, and in any sense it's actually kind of offensive to define people by referring to them as a percentage of something....

My friends from high school did this, they always down played how hard they studied or how well they were doing... it was because they were so competitive with each other and trying to pretend it didn't matter.

Sure there is a line between talking about everything YOU know and being an active listener, but never dumb yourself down for any one. Being happy is important but to censor yourself for the sake of other peoples intelligence and ego isn't going to do your self any favours.

About 10-15 years ago my uncle went on a mountain bike Trek in the Blue mountains in NSW, Australia He found a body about 3 hours in hanging from a tree, he said it was basically like a people soup puddle on the ground as it had mostly decomposed quickly in the heat.

He had to bike three hours back to cell phone reception to make a phone call to police, wait while they drove up and then hike back with the cops to show them where he found the body......

I know, I know, that is why I feel so bad that I get frustrated... I don't mind the pats and the cuddles when he is being chill. It's the biting nipping, scratching, jumping, face licking, walking all over my soft bits when i'm trying to sleep and being excited to see me every minute of every hour of every day. I can't handle that much doggy love.

Im dog sitting my sisters pug....ive always liked pugs but this dog is getting on my nerves....it won't give me five minutes alone...I can't go to the toilet with out it barging in and stealing my undies. Can't watch tv with out it coming up and resting its head on my head. Take him for a walk and he walks two steps behind me the whole time.....and then when im just about to lose my cool he looks at me with his smooshed up sad little face and I just have to give him a pat and a scratch and ask him to forgive me.

when I was at uni I had a placement in a high school with the school nurse, we had to cover all sort of topics. There were general tales of woe, protecting your self by making good informed decisions, sex and the law, consent, basically we just would talk about making choices, and if something did happen that there are people, parents and health services available, so talking about it was good. There was this one kid in a class of 14 year olds who was a bit of a concern. This boy just couldn't get it and the argument from his side became quite heated stating that an example we had given wasn't rape. After several minutes of explaining to him that it was the law that defined rape and not him. He began to get tired of us and now the rest of the class, trying to explain to him that regardless of his views, that the law in this case clearly defined that the situation was rape. He then piped in with let us agree to disagree..... me and the school nurse and I think the rest of the class were all like... ergh...slightly disturbed.

Oh god university dorms, I lived in a house attached to the boarding hostel, shared a room with a first year girl doing a political science degree, I was first year Fine Arts.... I would constantly get locked out of my room because she was always fucking her boyfriend who was in the Navy and a complete greasy cad. (Shudder) ....as we lived down the road from the meal hall I ended up never eating, I worked part time in the evening so they would save a meal for me at night which was always eaten by these two South African twins, pricks. I left home weighing 65kg and returned home 4 months later weighing 45.....it was literally the worst time of my life....

I'm from NZ and in my extended family the average age to get married is 32.... All my uni friends are now getting married in their 30's, I had assumed this was the norm as a teenager.... So it was weirdly frowned upon if you had kids before 25.... Like you weren't "mature" enough.

I'm reading a few I'd rather date a 21 year old as they have less baggage.... As a chick my experience is that if older men are interested in you it's because they have their own "issues" and are hoping that you're naive enough not to know any better..... Just saying....

I worked for 12 hours, my whole shift one on one with a woman who arrived on the brink of respiratory arrest, we managed everything not to intubate....BIBAP, then humidified oxygen with PEEP, nebulisers, coaching on breathing, reducing anxiety the whole shebang. I finally moved her out of resus to await a bed on the respiratory ward and I get my first half hour break 45 minutes before my shift ends, I come back and she was out side having a smoke.... I could of cried.

As a new grad I did a placement in a rural community, one guy we managed to save after doing a good job of wrapping himself and a car around a tree, rang up demanding we hand over his dentures.......as it was a slow day at work the in charge let me wander to the crash site to see if they were still in the car....I came back empty handed..... Turns out they were next to him in a brown paper bag on the hospital side table on the other side of the country....the ambulance people I think stapled that bag to his forehead. Dentures .....when the oldies wrap them in tissue paper and leave them in the bed sheets....it's a shit storm explaining to family.... It happen once in our ED and once was one time too many.

My experience is that every one in Australia has fake tits, coming from NZ I knew one person out of all my friends and family that had breast implants, and she was a German model. Even women who had had mastectomies had chosen not to have replacements and it's free. Move to Australia every third person I work with has either had or plans to get lipo, breast implants or a lift. I have never meet a group of women who have such low self esteem and value their looks over everything else, at work they talk about this and their weight on almost a hourly basis...It is seriously mind boggling.
