The physics subject is nicknamed PST which sounds an awful lot like PTSD which I'm not entirely sure I don't have after last semester's physics.

That's why ya don't do physics
Is uni really that bad though? I was hoping it would be less work than year 12.

Earth --> Terra (literally 'Mother Earth' if we continue with Roman mythology)
Sun --> Sol (I THINK Sol is the Roman equivelant of Hyperion, Titan of Heavenly Light?? Idk I can't remember)
ATAR Notes --> E X T R E M E     N O T E S

Sol is the Norse Goddess of the Sun as far as I'm aware.

I'm finding uni is (quite a bit) less stressful than year 12 but some subjects have a lot of work. You're free to put as much or as little work into it as you want and I've found the work they give is more relevant and necessary than year 12 and also more interesting so I don't mind doing it. But you can't bludge subjects as much, so my workload is higher but I enjoy it more
*Note I was a bit lazy during year 12 and hated doing repetitive exercises

Good joke :')

Depends on what course you're doing, I guess. I definitely have a much higher workload than last year and the work is more difficult. The good thing is though, the stuff you learn is actually relevant, which is nice and makes things more enjoyable.

The atmosphere is really different though, and I'd definitely say uni is better than high school despite there being more work

I just had nandos for the first time ever.

I've never had Hungry Jacks! Is it worth it?

Are you serious! I love some of Hungry Jacks stuff. They have some pretty good deals-their six nuggets and large chips is like $4, and their stunner meals are great. Although, I've been there heaps of times just for their frozen cokes.

On the topic of Hungry Jacks, as someone who worked there for 2 months (that was as much as I could stomach - I was v weak) protip, that literally works for all fast food restaurants - customise your orders. Ask for no salt on your fries, or extra mayo on your burger, etc. etc - because it forces them to actually serve it fresh, rather than serve you one that has been left in the heater/bain-marie for a while!

How many times is it acceptable for me to ask someone to repeat the time I need to be somewhere?

Turns out that I think I'm paying attention in a conversation then I realise 10 minutes later that I really wasn't paying attention...

I have the same problem, but with names
Also, I always realise a spelling mistake a second after I send a message

On the bus today, I heard a teen bragging about listening to real music. Music that nobody appreciates. Underground music.

He proceeds to show his friend American Pie by Don McLean. I'll repeat: one of the most popular rock songs of all time is considered underground.

Don't know if I'd label that as ridiculous or absurd. :/
That song is definitely one of the most popular rock songs; I hear of rock songs around home, and that one I hear at least 2-3 times a day haha.

45 minutes on a treadmill pays off.

I went from having no idea what to say for my next lecture to ten different ideas or so

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE

He showed one other song. HE SHOWED 'STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN'. Everyone knows 'Stairway to Heaven', bahhh, that's like telling someone that 'Bohemian Rhapsody' is underground. I am so salty over the edge of this young individual

This is just stupid. DO BETTER, KID.

Edit: I feel bad for judging because I thought I was coolest fucking kid around at 16 because I found Simon and Garfunkle on YouTube.
