Now that the holidays have begun (for most it has), what do you guys have planned? How much study are you really going to do?

um...well i have a lot planned, but the amount that gets done depends on how good i am at not procrastinating. (to give you a rough idea: i only just started doing a bio essay today that was due last monday.) but i guess the hsc will seem closer and i'll have more incentive to work.

As for study... I'll make myself do some. Eventually. I need a break though. I think everyone does. :p

Trust me, the scariest thing when learning to drive is having a giant truck right up behind you and going through uphill overtaking zones. The truck tries to overtake, gets halfway, gives up because of the hill, and slots straight back in half a metre behind you. You're stuck on 80 and when you then go downhill, you freak out worrying if the truck is going to squash you.

WHY ARE YOU GUYS STUDYING?!?! IT'S THE HOLIDAYS!!! :p

Seriously though - holidays is for holidays. Don't study too hard/too much through them, because the body and mind need a break :) Burnout is bad, avoid burnout at all costs! :)

I've already had my 2 or so weeks of bumming around. I just started with 3 hours today. I think that is enough as it is is about 20% of my day all in all. Still plenty of time to relax and party. :cool:

I wish I had worked in my year 12 summer holidays :(

If only i had got another .60 for my enter I would have prolly got a scholarship and got paid 6grand a year tax free :p

So yeah, have a goal and work towards it. If that means you need to work during the holidays so be it.

When I was in high school having a job and earning money in the holidays was more important than studying abnd being a geek. But yeah in hindsight I wish I had studied instead.

The way I see it atleast in my scenario. I earned prolly around 3 grand over the holidays. Not instead of doing that, if i had studied a fair bit, I could have prolly got 99.75 and i would be on a scholarship which would basically be 24 grand tax-free over the course of my studies

i guess there is no point regretting it now*sigh*
lol sorry if i sound like an idiot
