Introducing . . .

Hi my name is Taga Tanuvasa and I'm 18 years of age. I am a full Samoan and Christian, and I attend Mascot Open Brethren in Mangere. I play the guitar and the bass for church and enjoy performing in front of people.

My 5 favourite things are:

1. Church

I really enjoy going to church

and youth services because it

is a great place to go to

worship and fellowship with other people.

2. Listening to music

Eminem, Usher, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Fall Out Boy, Travie McCoy, Bruno Mars, Train, Kolohe Kai, Fiji, JBoog

I like listening to different artists but mostly eminem. He has epic lyrics and I enjoy rapping to his songs, especially the fast ones. I also like rock, jazz, blues and country music.

3. Hanging out with friends and family

Family would have to be number 1 in my life because they help shape me into who I am today, and are fun to be around, despite all the dramas that can happen.

4. Drawing-banners, graffiti

I really like the local graffiti artists like MR G, BLES, DZERT. This is a piece by Mr G of Smeegal from the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I like this piece because it looks realistic the way Mr G captured

every detail of Smeegal's evil little smirk.

5. Building furniture

cabinets, coffee tables, stools

I really enjoy construction.

From wood turning to

building frames. The feeling

when you've finally varnished

is just indescribable. This is

one of the coffee tables I made
