Gee, I'd rather be back at highschool =/
Well I'm probably going to ANU so it means I get to leave dipshit high school friends behind and feel no obligation to keep in contact with them. Which I really can't wait for.

Agreed. This is pretty much why I travel the extra 30 minutes to flinders. It is hardly ANU, but it is totally worth it to escape the douches :)

Good point. Luckily I didn't have anything to do with the small handful of douches at the highschool I went to, but I wouldn't trade anything to go back to year 11/12.

thankfully, the only time facebook really distracts me is when the one reason I use it happens to be online. other than that, I'm usually not distracted by that sort of stuff.

now I'm almost hoping the one person fails just to see the resulting trial when he attempts to sue facebook. gonna laugh so hard when he loses.

To be honest it's not facebooks fault that people can't pull their asses together.

There's an easy solution to the facebook problem. Don't turn your computer on before your homework is done or remove the net connection till it's done.

They need to pull their asses into shape. Seriously they're the ones going on to facebook, it's not facebook getting into their computers making it impossible to view the sites they're suppose to view.

Oh gosh. I'm the same.
I'm quite nostalgic for year 12 in particular.

I still love a few of my school buddies.
Most people I've made an effort to lose touch with and cut out of my life, however.

Succumbing to temptation is a human trait.
