Study Abroad in New Zealand

[1]  Due to the popularity of the Lord of the Rings trilogy New Zealand is suddenly on the map of every tourist,
[2]  adventurer, and student in the world. Frankly, those who have been there will tell you, it’s about time. New
[3]  Zealand is home to one of the most beautiful natural environments in the entire world; the people are
[4]  famous for their kindness and willingness to accommodate all kinds of visitors; and its relative geographic
[5]  isolation has allowed it to avoid many of the problems faced by other nations today.
[6]  Located to the southeast of Australia and separated from the continent by a 2,000-mile stretch of the
[7]  Tasman Sea, New Zealand looks as if it is truly at the ends of the earth. However, its distant geographical
[8]  location does not mean that it is in any way a boring or backward place. Quite the contrary, in fact: ‘Arts
[9]  and culture form a lively part of New Zealand life. Traditional Maori arts can be enjoyed throughout the
[10]  country, while professional theatre companies, orchestras, and opera can be found in the main centres.
[11]  New Zealand pop music is gaining an international reputation, and you’ll find studios of the country’s best
[12]  artists throughout the country.’
[13]  (…)
[14]  New Zealand’s biggest city is Auckland. Around 1.3 million people live there; ‘one third of the country’s
[15]  entire population.’ It is a bustling city famous for its beautiful harbor, excellent cafés and nightlife, and
[16]  many professional opportunities. The quality of life enjoyed by its residents is famously high, and this
[17]  attracts many students from all over the world. The University of Auckland is part of the University of New
[18]  Zealand system, and offers classes that run the gamut from art to optometry to law and cover seemingly
[19]  everything in between.
[20]  So despite its distance from the United States, spending some of your college years in New Zealand is
[21]  sure to reward the effort. From the high quality of the education to the beauty of the natural surroundings,
[22]  this is a wonderful place in which to live and learn.

[1]  The Paradox of Modern Life

[2]  
[3]        We are now more wired than ever. Researchers from the University of Glasgow found that half of
[4]  the study participants reported checking their email once an hour, while some individuals check up to 30 to
[5]  40 times an hour. An AOL study revealed that 59 percent of PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) users check
[6]  every single time an email arrives and 83 percent check email every day on vacation.
[7]        “I live and die in email,” says IT manager Christopher Post in Camp Hill, Pa. “I found a PDA to be a
[8]  double-edged sword. It can certainly allow you to do a lot more in any given day, but there is certainly a
[9]  cost associated. I tend to lose out on a lot of other experiences, like when I should be paying attention at
[10]  the dinner table.”
[11]        You’ve got to take back control, says Edward Hallowell, MD, author of Crazy Busy: Overbooked,
[12]  Overstretched, and About to Snap! “The great thing about modern life is you can do so much,” he says,
[13]  “and the curse of modern life is you can do so much.”
[14]        It’s the new epidemic, Hallowell says. “People joke about being crazy busy. Sometimes they brag
[15]  about it, like being busy is a status symbol. But they don’t realize that it’s as harmful for them as obesity or
[16]  cigarette smoking.”
