keep in mind.... its not a long holiday when u think about it.
time flies like crap during this time. u get your results.... then new years...... then u deal with your uni preferences and crap like that.... and then u see what choices u got and what u dont have, then u read all these booklets about your course and uni...... then u go to some orientation days or a camp (UTS IT CAMP ROCKS). and then uni starts.

....

what do you think.

well I was hoping of getting a little job in a cd store or somethin related to that.....I haven't really done much about it yet. I don't want to get too far ahead of myself.

i wanna be an extra...

i wanna be an extra. apparently the pay is ok, and of for nothing else, the experience. and you don't even need to know how to act (if you are an extra who has spent years in acting school for it, now is the time to shoot my argument to bits).

alternatively, you could get into a pyramid scheme. or donate your kidneys. or someone else's if you like yours.

on the subject of kidneys--

24 beers in a case.
24 hours in a day.
coincidence? i don't think so.

unless your lucky, I think you'll find that most places you can get a job will pay on or close to the minimum wage, which is around $10 for an 18 year old on casual I believe.. I get $8.69 but that's part time
