Next year, when the final exams start again, you will think "man, has it been a year already".
I won't have time to think! I'd be too focused on trying to ace my uni exams :haha:

To be honest, with uni, you relax way more about that stuff. From what I have noticed, uni isnt as consuming as high school.

o_O How'd you finish so early?
I'm at a private school, and as Saturday sport is compulsory, the school can count it as a 'school day'. Therefore I finish on the 6th and start again at the beginning of feb. We still finish all the content of course.
I'm not 100% sure about all this^, just what someone told me.

I'm not that worried about finishing on the 19th. Do the private schools start earlier that the public system or do they just geat heaps of holiday time?
they start late and finish their terms early, however their schools days are literally from 7am to 5 or 4pm that's why

Not ncessarily. At my school it was due to compulsory sport (which I bludged by "bribing" my sports teacher/coach).

True, best to study hard in high school and they enjoy/relax in university..

Well not really, like I mentioned earlier some schools that have compulsory sport count the saturday as a school day. So APPARENTLY we do the same number of days, just in less time.

I'm sure it all just evens out in the end.
