'The beginning is the most important part of the work'-Plato
Ah, freedom; it truly is the sweetest, savoured best after the greatest hardship. \
I finally got a blog-another thing on my 'to-do' list for after the HSC. im so happy now but, as someone once said: 'In order to understand ourselves, we must first delve deep into reconciling our past.'
Year 12 has finally come to an end. the moment i walked outside of the gates after my final exam (legal Studies) the world changed. It was as if the world was painted in new colours, as if a thick curtain that surrounded me had been dropped and i could see clearer. All that tension, anxiety and sheer terror was released. so this is freedom.
hmm..HSC was interesting.
English advanced was, in my opinon, more trickier than last year (especially with BOS screwing everyone over with THAT question)-modules was weird especially the skin of a lion q, but i think i managed.
haha mathematics! 2008 was so easy this felt more 3unit/harder2unit exam, nevertheless, im extremely thrilled i continued with 3unit math. Of course the extension paper is always tricky, but considering how i cant usually do any questions i was quite happy with this years paper because i could do 1-5 (cant do 6 or 7 anyways).
the exam i was dreading THE MOST was Extension English. Especially because i actually tried properly this time and sent Mr Henry essay after essay, did another creative and did past responses. I was about to cry of joy when i saw how both qs fit perfectly with what i knew and i could answer it. :) yay for english!
Modern History was great (i hope i dont jinx myself)-germany and indochina qs were perfect OMG I PREDICTED THE ANTI-WAR Q THE NIGHT BEFORE THE EXAM! HAHAHHA I EVEN SENT AN EMAIL TO KEATING-i literally started cracking up in the exam hall lmao..personality was ok as was ww1.
Legal was so boring-could the exam have taken any longer? seriously! mc were good, short asnwer were ok-couldve been wayyy better. world order q was great! was tempted to do the state sov one but it woulda been risky-so i stuck to the simple one. hah family was sooo weird-i mean WHAT was with the marriage q-thank god i did the court one, weird but good because it allowed you to argue a point as opposed to wo were you had to make your own points.
ahh my room is still in a mess, i threw out 4 garbage bins of work and thats only half of it-have so many books to sell! and still need to sign out...
life without school is so carefree, i feel unbound, no strings-free to drift in any direction, with or against the current, the anxiety-the belt around ones neck is loose now,
we have become the wind....
the air...
free.
Wow ive been out more the past 5 days than i have all year. went to the city twice, shopping (oh my hsc book list is so big now hmm i think il start with mao's last dancer), sushi restaurant (YUM!), movies, tv, reading, relaxing, sleeping fb-ing...living :)
