    Graduation 2008

    Post by Guest on Mon Aug 03, 2009 2:57 pm

    For those playing the waiting game at the moment. Here's the vids from my graduation in August '08.

    A little bit of a reminder as to why you're putting yourself through the stress and pain of the initial application process Wink

    It was his thumb if I remember correctly. I had a broken finger from the same incident, I was tough though and didn't need a cast Wink

    Fish did you have a broken bone too from that day in the gym?

    I have to admit to holding back the laughter when the national anthem was played... They couldn't have found a cheaper version!

    Brent broken his thumb and I cracked the index finger and dislocated my thumb.I think we had a couple of summits to ease the pain that night.

    Man our Haka was awesome.

    That's right. It was a good blow out in the gym that day... Pitty it ended with so many broken bones. The drinks in the bar that night went down a treat though Cool

    Our Haka was pretty intense.

    That Haka was great. Do the Hakas change every wing? I saw another version out there for the Governor General's Wing early last year.

    The college Haka stays the same (actions may change a bit). But we added another one in for us girls to have our turn up front.
