     You will be pleased to know that you no longer have to endure any more HSC related posts due to the ridiculously amazing fact that I am done with it forever!! Who would have thought the day would come?! My final exam was yesterday afternoon and I cannot describe the feeling of freedom I have right now!! I don't have to worry that I should be studying, I don't have an assignment or major work that I should be working on, I don't have an essay that I should fix up - I can just do whatever I want to do completely guilt free!! It.Is.Amazing. I can FINALLY focus 100% on achieving everything that I want to achieve in my life. I can put all my efforts into my acting and pursuing that career - I have been waiting SO LONG to be able to do that without feeling guilty because I should be doing school work instead.

     And also....I got the Front of House job the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre/Q Theatre!! I have quit McDonalds and had my last shift there last Saturday. I am so excited about this job! It pays better than maccas and is a WAY better environment - I mean, I'm working in a theatre, not a fast food restaurant! Plus, if I'm ushering during my shift, I get to sit in on the shows :) I've also got an audition at Sydney Theatre School for their one year Diploma of Theatre Performance course this Saturday. Hopefully all goes well - I'll let you know how it goes! I'm also auditioning for NIDA and WAAPA this month, but I'm much more confident that I'll get into the Sydney Theatre School course because it's not as selective and prestigious as NIDA or WAAPA (which are almost impossible to get into, and they hardly ever take people first year out of school). It's basically designed to train you to audition for NIDA and WAAPA again at the end of next year, and it's a part time course so I'd be able to work and audition for roles at the same time, which is really good.  I'm really excited for what God has in store for my future now that I'm completely finished with school, and at the moment it is looking good :)

   I've recently been constantly playing this song - I heard it on the radio a couple of days ago, bought it because I liked it so much, and it's been constantly playing since :)

And so it Begins...

Today is the day the HSC begins. For those of you who are not in Australia, the HSC is the final examinations students complete at the end of Yr 12 of school - the Higher School Certificate. I find myself less scared and more excited - I've had three weeks of holidays in which to study and I just want to get these exams over and done with so I can fully focus on achieving what I want to in life. On the 2nd of November I will complete my last exam and that date can't come soon enough, so that is why I am excited to get started. The sooner I start, the sooner I finish.

This afternoon is my first exam: Drama. I feel prepared and I'm not too worried, so all is fairly well. I am currently sitting outside, sipping my tea and writing this. I feel quite relaxed, actually. No doubt that will change in a couple of hours. It's odd, I guess it kind of feels like the calm before the storm...

 Oh, I must tell you - I've been asked in for a job interview at the Joan Sutherland Performing Arts Centre/Q Theatre for job as an usher/bar tender. I'm very excited at the prospect of quitting McDonalds, where I have been working for the past 4 years! I really hope I get the job - I love the theatre and the atmosphere there (plus, the pay is better than Maccas and you get to sit in on shows :D) In a couple of weeks I will be able to tell you if I got the job or not.

 Well, for now, I shall leave you and get back to some last minute revising and cementing of information and quotes into my brain for this afternoon.

 I'll type again soon :)
