| | == Biography == |
| | === Primary School === |
| | Though not born in the area, Joshua's family moved to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Te_Awamutu Te Awamutu] soon before he turned five (and required to commence [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_education primary education].) During his early years at school, he also attended Keas, the junior division of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scouting_New_Zealand Scouting New Zealand]. |
| | |
| | Joshua's father, the leader of the Scouts troop, often took him on camping trips not intended for Keas; allowing him to see a large portion of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Island North Island]. |
| | |
| | Before his eight birthday his family moved back to their home town of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashhurst Ashhurst] where he completed his primary education. |
| | |
| | === High School === |
| | When time came to attend [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_School High School], Josh decided to enroll at the smallest one in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmerston_North Palmerston North]. The school advertised a promising accelerated learning program which he thought would cater to his aptitude for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics Mathematics] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science Science]. |
| | |
| | Joshua had an easy time during his first year, completing a large portion of the next year's material at the same time including the end of year exams. His teachers recommended that he skip a year in his two strongest classes. This, however, would have placed him in the group going through the first level of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Certificate_of_Educational_Achievement NCEA] for the first time and the school refused to allow the acceleration. |
| | |
| | For the rest of his time at the school (from which he graduated in 2005) he made a point of doing as little work as possible while still remaining at the top of his class. |
| | |
| | === RNZAF & Other Employment === |
| | Joshua enlisted in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_New_Zealand_Air_Force Royal New Zealand Air Force] straight out of high school and within three months he was aboard a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-130_Hercules#C-130H_model C-130H Hercules] on his was to commence [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recruit_training basic training] at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RNZAF_Base_Woodbourne RNZAF Base Woodbourne]. |
| | |
| | Two weeks from completion of basic, Joshua decided that military life was not for him and returned home to Palmerston North. His father acquired him a job at the local [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saw_mill saw mill] where he completed a number of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_certification trade certifications]. |
| | |
| | The certifications made it incredibly easy for Josh to find employment when he and his soon-to-be fiance (who is the person behind [[Shardara Bellamorae]]) decided to move to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napier,_New_Zealand Napier]. |
| | |
| | === Tertiary Education === |
| | Not satisfied with a life in manual labour, Joshua decided to leave his job and enroll in a Diploma in Information and Communication Technology at the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Institute_of_Technology Eastern Institute of Technology], which he completed in July of 2009. He then went onto a Diploma in Programming which he is currently completing. |
| | |
| | == Origins of the Name == |
| | The name Windos was stumbled upon when Joshua was roughly 10 years old and tried entering his nickname as "Windows" on a Friend.Link. Seven letters, apparently, was too many for the device and the W was replaced by the S. |
| | |
| | Since then Windos was been used as his user name across the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet internet]. |
