<p>Hwag005: </p> <hr /> <div>=Helgard Johan Wagener (Buddy to most)=<br /> <br /> Pleased to meet you all. I was born in South Africa on 22 October 1991, in Johannesburg, but grew up in Cape Town. I have been here in New Zealand since 2006.<br /> <br /> ==University of Auckland==<br /> <br /> Between my last year at Auckland Boys Grammar and my first year at the University of Auckland, I took a year off to make some decisions - what I wanted to do, where I wanted to be in 5 years,ect. Rather than just moping around, I studied a year-long certificate in hospitality, focusing on bartending. If there is anything I learned from this year off, it is that one can find work anywhere in the world if one has hospo experience.<br /> <br /> Currently, I am a 3rd year BSc student, majoring in Biological Sciences/Marine Sciences. It is really interesting but keeping up with the University semester pace is sometimes an ordeal. Additionally, I am not entirely sure what end job to expect and am thinking of doing a second degree in Vet Sciences once this degree is completed. Current papers I am taking this year include:<br /> <br /> ===Summer School===<br /> *[[Compsci 111]]<br /> <br /> ===First semester===<br /> <br /> *BIOSCI 333 - Marine Ecology<br /> *BIOSCI 328 - Fisheries and Aquaculture<br /> *BIOSCI 330 - Freshwater and Estuarine Ecology - '''WAIT LIST'''<br /> *ENG 121G - Reading/Writing/Text<br /> <br /> ===Second semester===<br /> <br /> *BIOSCI 329 - Biology of fish<br /> *BIOSCI 335 - Ecological Physiology<br /> *MARINE 302 - Dynamics of Marine Systems<br /> *Undecided 2nd Gen Ed paper - I really want to study either Japanese or Korean this year. However, I would like to start studies as early as possible,not this late in the year.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Interests==<br /> <br /> #Boxing/Muay Thai - beginning of 2007, I started boxing. A year ago, I switched to MT. Really fun, but still room for improvement.<br /> #Marine Biology<br /> #Anime/Manga - most likely the inspiration for studying Japanese (well, the Japanese girls are really pretty as well XP)<br /> #Coffee-making/Bartending<br /> #Computer games - Guildwars 2, LoL, WOW, Assassin's creed series, ect<br /> #Running<br /> #Reading<br /> #Languages and cultures (particularly other cultures' '''food''')<br /> #Survival craft - Bear Grylls is a boss. <br /> <br /> ==Memorable quote==<br /> <br /> &quot;Fear isn't evil. It lets you know your weaknesses, and once you know those, you can become stronger as well as kinder.&quot; - Gildarts</div>
