Hey guys,

I'm just curious, are you excited to leave school or bittersweet? I am very much feeling bittersweet about leaving soon...and to think, it is less then a month away :S.

Those people whom you see on a daily basis, that would by far be the hardest thing to lose. I don't know how i'll cope, tbh. It'll be so hard, first few weeks/months. Hopefully they'll come to my UNI :)

I only had 2 or 3 friends go to my Uni. Rest went to UNSW.

If anything, it's better because it forces you to learnt to socialise, assuming you don't know.

i'm excited but not having the consistency of seeing those people ive known for 6 years will be a challenge. new friends to make and lots of new experiences though so it's sort of good

I kind of wish that my whole cohort went into my same course at uni (even the people I dislike). But in saying that I'm happy that school will be over

High school is easy guys. If you think the HSC is hard, wait until you get to uni. Your workload each semester wil be more than that for the entire HSC (as well as exams which are harder than HSC exams at the end of each semester; i.e. twice a year)

Einstein left school in year 3 and he is one of the smartest people in the world.
And this quote is said by Einstein!

A quote I heard the other day: "If you want to get laid, go to university. If you want an education, go to the library."

Bittersweet :') I never thought I'd say this but High school was/is great, so many awesome moments socially and academically. Gonna miss not seeing everyone I usually see but there's a whole new world out there to explore.

I can't wait to never have to do English ever again. Apart from that, I'll miss it a lot.

Documentary I watched must be wrong then :p
It is a fact that school is focused on education while university is focused on learning.

Oh I'm really pumped to get out of school. I suppose even though their are pros and cons, overall it's awesome to get out of the school environment. If you have no friends then it wont be a worry, which is my case.

After school: Party, Booze, Party, No naughty stuff -_- don't even think about it and Booze :)

Why? I know many people in our cohort who want to go to UNSW and only a few who want to go to USYD. I don't understand why.

Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates all have something in common. They all quit school (and are billionaires). HOWEVER! The chances of being a drop out and becoming rich is low and only the luckiest will succeed.

Excited as there's so much more out there in the world to learn and discover (beyond the 'tick-the-box HSC), but will miss the lovely environment of my school, my grade and also some of the teachers I'm close to.
