All the dumb stuff which my year level did was just so much fun. Now try doing half the stuff we did back then, and people think your an absolute tool (Greg Murphy styles). I also try to catch up with old buddies, and its too hard to. Now its time to be "independent" and work so i can put petrol in the car and pay reg n insurance. I wanna go back to year 12 right now. Highlight of my life. Ducktaping the nerd of year 12 to the flag pole was so much fun .

Yep same here. I'm lucky if I see any of my mates once a week when It I used to have them over everyday. Miss it so much. College was sooo much fun and I still did awesome at school.

Thanks guys, it has hit home quite hard not seeing the people you see every other school day. Its the people you wont see again that makes it that little bit harder, because you would only really talk to them whilst you where at school.

Im looking forward to hopefully going to Uni next year working part time and plenty of mods and cruises

Hey cranners,

Just curious, which high school did you go to? What are the plans for next year? Will you be the new rising mechanical engineer at Ford :the_finge ?

I went to Croydon Secondary Colledge in Melbourns eastern suburbs, i am hoping to get into Business at Swinburne Lilydale.

Im heading down to Phillip Island for skoolies over the V8 supercar weekend with a few mates, so it should be an enjoyable time.

Congrats on finishing.

Never really missed high school, moved straight into college, 100 times better (except my car is out in the open :S). If you get the chance to live in a college, even for a year, take it. You won't regret it. Good luck for the future.

I had the chance and boy I did regret it. Too many idiots that had everything paid for by parents for my liking.

I've never found that a problem where I am, and I hardly have everything paid for living off about $100 a fortnight.

Lilydale Uni is about a 10min drive from my house so its nice and close, it also means i dont have to move out of home straight away. I had the option to do the same course at Hawthorne but i opted to apply for Lilydale as my first option.

Lucky bast*rd!

I finish this wednesday, kinda felt weird on my final assembly, made me think that high school never really was that bad, i'll probably never get another chance to just sit down and bludge and talk crap with mates all day, then the same thing the next day and the same thing the day after that! But then again, I can't wait till it's all over, this year has been a drainer.
