After this we have some sort of guard of hounour thing, everyone claps as we walk past them lol. and then we have the Graduation Ceremony in the night, this is when we get our 'portfolios' and lots of food :D

Schedule is like this:

Thursday of Week 10:
- Period 1+2, free periods. Some foods are there and we are just there to get a photo and like sign our shirts =)
- Period 3+4, INTERNAL GRADUATION! Procedure is like...people from each homeroom stand and like your homeroom teacher talks stuff about you (good things hopefully haha)
- Then we have Major Prize Winners (UNSW Scholarship, Macquarie Academic Award, Leadership Award, Most Improved Award, Sports Award, Good Conduct Award but they all have really weird names instead of being called like that LOL)
- Finish the internal grad, yay

Friday of Week 10:
- Mass from 10:30 - 12
- External Graduation with parents: 12-3
- It starts with food =) haha
- Procedure of this graduation is pretty much same as Internal Graduation. =)
- Finish the external grad, yayayayay - freedom!

Far out, Blacktown has exactly the same thing as Fairfield, only they're merging the concert and prizegiving night this year into the Year 12 Grad night for Year 12.

yeah our day is pretty hectic - the assembly is pretty good - generally there's a good address from the guest of honour, and a lot of the prizes are highly coveted....so it's always a good day (especially with a luncheon afterwards)

valete dinner is apparently awesome :D in acer arena or something like that....
i am going for actuarial xD. omg my friend is competing against u!!! pooor her...=(

haha more like poor me - i have little or no chance of co-op...

and nah, won't get any awards...most of them are sporting lol

well gl namu - you've got a damn good chance....
u are guaranteed for like 20+ awards but the one I can guarantee is the Modesty Award. You will get that for sure. The rest will simply follow =)

nevertheless good luck anyway (little bit of luck always helps!) =)

I can't wait! I want to get out of Canberra as fast as I can.
Sure, I'll miss my friends and I'll probably get a bit sad about the fact that I'm leaving, but I honestly can't wait to get away from everything here.

argh not ready to leave!
i've only just begun to appreciate school this year and its already gone :(
+1

I wish I had one more term, or one more month. Saddens me a little, because I never really got to know some people well enough.

I'm not quite ready to say goodbye to all I just met this year.

A bit apprehensive at being in "the real world" though, gone are the days of routine socialising and whatnot.

Other than that, I'm generally glad to leave

Thursday October 2nd seems to draw so close

living in the middle of suburbia isn't always great.

aww :( I think the only reason why i didn't cry is because I don't think it's hit me yet.

I still feel like I'm returning next term, and I'm going to see all my teachers, friends etc.

nop it definitely hasn't hit me yet :| ... but everytime i think of 2morrow...i get really nervous lol
