I haven't been able to draw for a while (and won't be able to) so I thought to squeeze this in tonight!
Also heres an update bc I'm not going to be active for a while again: (Warning: Slightly ventish? Just complaining about my education system)
I finished my last formal day at school and now all that is left is exams. I may or may not upload until the mid/end of November as I need to crunch study HARD. Exams can either break or make your ATAR (final score to apply for University courses). You could be an A+ student, expecting an ATAR of 90+ then do shit on the exams and get a 70 ATAR, these final exams really sway the final number and I want to do well.
It sucks though because I'm literally competing with every other yr 12 in my state. The system determines your score by how well other students are doing around you, not by how YOU do individually. What's worse is that there is a clear disadvantage, private schools are funded from the government more than public schools AND they pretty much get to choose their teachers (aka the good ones). I'm in a public school, practically teaching myself 5 out of my 6 subjects because there are a limited amount of teachers, therefore we're given new teachers who were legit student teachers the year before. ALSO our school department rolled out brand new study designs which no one knows how to teach yet. There are no examples to refer to, the study design is unclear and I'm having to relearn things as unit 1/2 doesn't apply in 3/4 anymore! It's a shit position and I know many of my classmates feel the same anguish and stress. Legit all we can do is just "study more". Wish us luck o7
