Let's begin with the whole Year 12 episode.
I'll just summarise my life in a single word. It's pretty simple: School.
The hours of homework I'm crushed under, the little hours of sleep I get and all the extra curricular things I do always leave little time for self appreciation. And the cherry on top would be the pressure from my old man to get into a decent university course.
The fact that I'm always short of time to do even the simple everyday tasks like do homework or go out with friends drives me bonkers sometimes. But it places me at the boundaries of my limits and the adrenaline is simply just: bloody exhilarating.
And when I have a hard "think" about it, I fucking love it. I love Year 12. And no, I'm certainly not being sarcastic here. And no, I'm certainly not a Jackson Chen. Quack.
Sure, this year's list of subjects aren't the most enjoyable [Eng, Chem, Jap, Phys, Spesh], but I have no doubt that there are people out there who have it even harder than I do.
So really, people who are finding Year 12 hard should really just harden the fuck up and stop complaining. 99% of the time you've got it better than someone else has out there, so be grateful for what you have. Remember that there are people who are envious of you, and far worse off. You just don't know it.
So embrace Year 12. One day you'll look back at this god awful shitty mess called VCE and realise it was an experience that made you richer.
Peace out.
David.
