So guys/girls now that you have finished or nearly there:) , whats the next step for you?
Any plans for travel, immediate work or just take a year off and be lazy?

P.S. Not sure where this thread goes:confused:

Ergh... my parents want me to look for a job now that i'm done with the hsc. But, i have no idea where i would want to work. As for gap years, my parents would probably kill me if i did take a gap year. Maybe because of the percieved bludgieness and general doing-nothingness that comes with a gap year. Arghh.. my dad is also fully forcing me to start my badminton training again (after a sedentery period of 6 months, lol), so that i can join a university team next year... >_>"

hmm... i also have to get my Ps... not that that'll happen any time soon, though. =_='

ahaha.. i just realised i started off every sentence with "my parents". lol. i have no control over my life. =(

parents wanted to take me overseas for a holiday but fuck that.
I'd probably spend most of holiday watching anime, gaming, learning new programming languages, and strip my car back put on a kit and paint it.


HMMMMMMMMMMMMMM SOUNDS LIKE FUN :)

EDIT: i may get a job if i want to buy more shit for my car/comp but til then its bludging around til uni

I changed my availability back at work so hopefully I can make some more money, as I've been living on minimal wages and feel quite remorseful for mooching off my parents all year. But I'm gonna look for a new job too, balance work with just going out and having fun and enjoying our extended summer! I'm going camping by the beach for a week, going to a few concerts and going to America in january. All in all, can't wait! :D

Between now and the start of next year, I'm probably just going to take it easy, and probably just party and socialise with school friends while I still can.

I'm going to be having a gap year, in which I might be getting a job or going to TAFE or doing a traineeship or something. I've got nfi what specifically to do though... so if anyone has any ideas for me, I'd really appreciate it.

Finding a job, sleeping, and TAFE for a year so then I can transfer to uni. Maybe. Or, I could be a bum and take a year off, but my father would blow his cap off at that suggestion, so it's most likely a fresh slate of academics next year.

Meanwhile, until February/March next year ...

SLEEP.
