Residents of Kingsland flat The Kamona have revealed they are "glad" to be leaving 2010 behind and are anticipating a better year in 2011.
Finishing university is the top reason most flatmates are welcoming the new year while launching a career, or embarking on a new one, is a significant goal for nearly all six flatters.
Ellen, a Fine Arts 2010 graduate from the University of Auckland's Elam Art School says, "Now I'm free from studying and other things. I'm looking forward to playing my own [music] shows."
New flatmate Tineke, also a 2010 graduate with a Bachelor of Education from Wellington's Victoria University, anticipates the start of a teaching career.
Willy Dub Stylez: 'Selector,' like Ellen, is looking forward to being involved with music this year.
"I'm going to make an EP this year, I'm just in the process of getting the beats together," he says.
Already several events have unfurled to mark the start of an exciting year, such as the engagement of Paul (leaseholder) to girlfriend Jocee, the arrival of new flatmate Tineke and a well-received flat garage sale held on 15 January (pictured left and below). The flat is intending to remain together for the year, although rising food and petrol prices may cause some residents to find cheaper alternatives.
"I might have to move back home so I can save money for the wedding," says Paul, a 2010 graduate with a Bachelor of Music from Auckland University.
Although uncertainty lingers around the future of The Kamona, Murray and John have confirmed that they will remain at Gang HQ for the year to come.
