You can also read my life story called Why Separate When We Can Unite when I'm done. I'll talk about happiness and why materialism isn't needed to have it. Love, and why you don't need to spend a single cent on your partner to have their love. Love letters, love songs. Bring back slow dance into formals. How I want to be a neurosurgeon. Team up with Khan Academy, Nick Vujicic, Youtube, Google etc. Build a car that runs on vegetable scraps, solar powered desalination plant, filter systems around the world. Efficient education and health systems, get students to respect teachers and value education as it opens many doors in the future. And many other things so.......be prepared !

I basically made HSC summary notes for all my subjects. I already had prepped essays for English from throughout the year and they are basically good enough. So yeah, just been studying pretty much :D

Wow... not as much as I would want for school, only did anything the first week. But still, got through:
-Advanced revision of creative, belonging integrated, Module B, Module A, and half of Module C responses
-Extension English WHOLE NEW creative, rewrote old one, and worked on my essay
-Maths was barely any... reviewed all topics and did Binomial homework but that was about all. Really need to go back and do Complex Numbers soon
-Biology did one trial paper and wrote notes to Communication
-Chemistry notes up to Industrial
-Food Tech notes up to Nutrition

But my excuse is excellent! The other two weeks I was in Singapore competing in the IBO, and I managed a silver so I don't feel too bad about my utter lack of trial preparation... I'll get bonus points if I need them from that, so yeah. Disgustingly hot though. :(
