Free periods are for the weak.

i have 9 per cycle, which is two weeks (speaking fo which, are most schools like that? do you have 2 week timetables or just one?)
anyway, during my line of frees, i only have one friend, and we both end up working. funny, theres another line of frees, when i have chem, when half the year has frees, no joke.
the best frees are the ones that are in the afternoon before an extension...we drive up to maccas and hang out there.
its actually kinda annoying having ext2 maths one day a week in the afternoon, i know some selective schools in sydney have ext2 maths classes when they would be doing 2u, which is like 8 hours every 2 weeks as opposed to 4hours. thats what i call a disadvantage

No such as Free's at Waverley they call them Study Periods which is gay because everyone has to an allotted place and be full quiet and stuff. I sat in on one and we got so ovr it so we went and played footy.

Ok when we have double frees we usually visit our local shop, get some food then roam around the suburb. It's funny coz everyone else gets caught by the "deputy principal" lol I know a way around to evade XD
But i think it's bound to change when im in year 12.

When i was in highschool I had about 22 free periods each cycle and each cycle lasted for two weeks. I swear I spent more time at home than at school and the days where I finished school at 10am was really annoying

well I must admit I probably wasted more frees than I should of...I didn't go home or anything like that though...I did work when it really counted. You just need to judge when you can afford to be lazy and when you really should use the time...frankly that's all that time but hey...I'd really suggest if you don't want to stress out like nothing else in yr.12 that you use your free periods productively...and that you do so at school!

we hav study periods
most ppl go 2 the library or a classroom allocated
I had 7 free period per cycle, one cycle goes for 2 weeks. Sometimes I caught up with homework which i forgot to do; sometimes me and my mates went down to the local shops to buy food; sometimes we went to friends house. Sometimes Macass run!
Free periods were always fun. The deputy and the principal always drive around tried to catch us, but we always have our way to aviod them. Towards the end of the year, they didnt care about us anymore, they drove, saw us and drove past.

Shutup!...that's why
I used all my free time to do homework and assignemnet and majors.. maybe thast cos I had 4 majors :s which I DO NOT reccomend. I was constantly working on them and if I wasnt doint them I was doing homework/assignemnts so when I got home I could just work on my majors (until 2am..oops). So I didn't waste my frees when I was in HS... I couldnt afford to.

There are desks n chairs set up for if u need to do homework or something, but its never quiet in there everyones always talking - even when they're studying
