High Degree of Caution

I'll be off to Papua New Guinea for an environmental engineering related project together with my lecturer and some coursemates. Today, I received a forwarded email from my lecturer:

So, high degree of caution huh? As if I care. I've bought my insurance and I am all set to go. If I do not return to Melbourne, I'm most likely cannibalized. But if I do, I am sure I would have learn heaps. Life is good.
