INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF CHEESE AHEAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.. Seriously not liable for any laughter/corny induced comas. Also apologies for my attempts to intermix sophisticated essay language with teenage gibberish!.
Lol but as I was saying.. With the prospect of leaving high school looming in the near distance, I've realised something. Screw all the bullshit HSC exams about finding heat enthalpy, documenting Trotsky's ideological influences and describing in great length what was so UNEXPECTED in texts that we've spent a whole bloody year doing. I want to start over.. I want to be in year 12 again and for ONCE know what to do and do everything right.. seriously the kids who started studying in year 9 had it right no matter how sad or fruitless it seemed. I remember people laughing at anthony liang because he'd be reading HSC economics textbooks in year 9/10 or something ( sorry if my memory is utterly wrong... oh the fallibility of memory! ) but its funny how easily 'dorky' attributes become 'cool' or at the very least admired in light of the crippling trial exams.
Not that I'm complaining.. that much. I'm content with how I've gone, it reflects my efforts and hopefully misadventure will save me from the onslaught of getting back English Extension!
OH yeah i was sayinggg... SCREW everything. I wish it was the ignorantly blissful beginning again with the same lovely cohort with the one exception that everybody had the right mindset, the 'liang' mindset if you will. Maybe you disagree with me, maybe you think studying that much is a waste of a lifetime but this s just my two cents.
Also I can't imagine leaving my teachers, some of which are the most warm-hearted people that I've ever met. I wonder if we came back in 10 years time, would anyone remember us, the XI grade and individually for who we truly were?!. With that, I want you to ask yourself. Does anybody even know who you really are right now? LOIK FORREALZ?!!. okay that was weird. But seriously I challenge you to truly bare yourself in these last few days. Not in a nudist colony sense but to really open up to people because seriously there are like 18 days of school left and the clock is going faster than it does in an Extension 2 maths exam.
OK, time to strain my weary asian eyes and resume making modern history notes. Guys don't forget to relish every last moment of school life, of having a safety net and of the communal experience of school life. Sorry for the epic, artery-clogging level of cheesiness but it had to be doneee!.
Take care and love lots,
vicky
