i have decided to dedicate a journal post to my fellow HSC'ers who, given the opportunity would kill the bastards who invented this so called 'course'. i would like to point out that the HSC is not a fun year. who ever tried to identify that shakespeare and human anatomy should be studied simultaneously should be shot dead. been a teenager, coping with puberty, sex, drugs, alcohol and peer pressure is hard enough. given time management, i would like to point out that the HSC does not leave much time for personal interests, or in fact free time of any sort. instead we spend 5 hours a day sitting at a desk writing. 

damn the board of studies, 
damn our teachers,
damn the HSC. 

vent over.
