It's all finally done and dusted. 13 years of compulsory education is now complete. You must feel so proud of yourself too. Any plans for what to do between now and results day? There's plenty of time to be a free adult now, so just kick back and relax, or maybe go on an adventure

      Oooooh yeah. Oz Comic Con is next month, you'll have plenty more time to get your character and costume ready. Do you have a job already, or will you look around for some work?

          FinFin-3rdYearUni yeah I've got a bit less than a month to put everything together and I have a job but I'll have to talk about picking up more shifts or getting a second job because I'm currently only doing one shift a week

            Being done school is weird, Ive been sleeping in until twelve and doing absolutely nothing.
            I did buy fabric, body paint and a wig though so I can start working on cosplays and I finally own concealer and stuff to try and do masc makeup for cosplay in the future?
            I was planning on going into school this week to deal with my locker and stuff but I think I may do that next week now... Oh well we shall see.

            It's strange that my friends are still going in and doing exams and I'm not tbh, I was always the most school obsessed one (and the most upset at the thought of leaving) but I haven't even had a proper cry or anything yet? It'll probably happen when I empty my locker and stuff is my current geuss. Idk

            Also I have my CHES graduation next week and I'm doing a buffet lunch at crown before it which should be a lot of fun.
            Hope everyone's going well, Goodluck to all my fellow year twelves still going through exams and I hope everyone's enjoying the end of their year!

              The post-exam sleep ins are the weirdest feeling ever. Enjoy them though.
              Most of the students still doing exams are language students. My French class and the Indo SL were the last exams, and there were about 10 of us, while everyone was on schoolies, or waiting for us to finish so we could go to schoolies.
              A buffet lunch? At the Crown? That sounds pretty good, and should be loads of fun. I graduated in 2020, so we were lucky just to get drinks at a pub. But, a finish is a finish, and we were happy just to be able to see each other. Your graduation will be fun, so enjoy it. You might not see a lot of your classmates for years after

                  MMHS yep!
                  FinFin-3rdYearUni yeah it's definitely strange getting to sleep in but I do quite like it. The buffet lunch isn't the actual graduation, just something my mum is doing for me (she and my sister went on a family holiday that I chose not to go on so she wanted to do something with me instead). I didn't really talk to a lot of my classmates for this grad because it's my online school so we only had weekly classes but I'm looking forward to it because there are a few Ive become friendly with.

                      Wow guys its been ages since I was online.
                      Final results are out!!!

                      Atar: 96.05

                      Study scores (raw):
                      Business management: 38
                      English: 39
                      Psychology: 41
                      Hospitality: 45
                      HES aggregate: 4.0

                      I am so happy considering I spent a considerable chunk of the year thinking I may fail (anxiety... Yipee) but that was clearly delusional of me so yay.
                      But I should have enough for guaranteed entry into Melbourne uni which is what I wanted and I got above a 90 which was always my personal goal.

                      A bit disappointed at business cause I was hoping to get at least a 40 but pleasantly surprised by english as my exam was pretty average.

                      In other news I have done my last con of the year (Oz Xmas edition) where I did my first ever body paint with a homemade cosplay I sewed myself with frost giant Loki, aka one of my dream cosplays from when I started a few years ago so I'm so happy. Plus I did a payed photoshoot with a photographer I like and it was incredible.

                      I hope everyone is happy with their results or can at least relax knowing it's over.

                        Update: Im my school's dux, I'm going to be in the newspaper, had Melbourne uni call and I have been offered the narrm scholarship.
                        I've cried a lot today and had to do a few calls so I'm overwhelmed like it's good but I can no longer emote properly and didn't even smile when telling my mum about the scholarship.
                        Anyways it's been good but a lot.
                        Hope everyone else is doing well

                          Woah, school dux?! That's impressive, AND a scholarship on top of that
                          It must be emotionally exhausting, which is understandable. Take the next few days slowly and as easily as you can. It's a lot to process, on top of your actual results
