I'm really not looking forward to going back to school.

Its actually really starting to freak me out. I'm really nervous. I know I shouldn't be - and I know its stupid, but I just can't help it.

Pretty much my whole life depends on this last year and a half of school. If I slack off and don't study or skip homework, because I'm tired, I can't be bothered, or I just don't want to, I could easily not get the high enough marks needed to get into the courses I want at Uni.
That's why I've made it one of my New Year's Resolutions to study hard, do homework, finish assignments on time, pay close attention in class - everything needed to get the ATAR mark I need.

I want to be a translator or ESL/TESOL (English as a Second Language/Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) Teacher when I leave Uni, (and speaking at least two other foreign languages, I'd really like to learn Chinese and Japanese) and the courses I've been looking at on the Sydney Uni website, say that I need a UAI/ATAR mark of at least 80.00. I think I can get that high ... I'll have to work my ass off ...

I really want to become an International Student though - I might be going to Japan this year for a few weeks on exchange, and when I go to Uni, I want to go on exchange to the USA or Japan.

SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!

It's freaking me out man!! DX

I just want to run away and hide - maybe I won't have to do the HSC if I do that??
