I've always thought schoolies should be about friendship. Having never been the type who enjoyed getting wasted and getting onto people, I always wanted my schoolies to be a time spent with my friends, enjoying their company for a final time before everything changed. I guess this was what my schoolies was. It was all about friendship. Gaining it, strengthening it, losing it. Schoolies really was a rite of passage, fucked up though it was in parts.

The first day, and the last, were the best. They were quiter, with less people and thus less interpersonal dilemmas. They were also the days I felt least sick on. I got a cold on the second day. I felt godawful, and continued to feel as such for another three or four days. I nicknamed it the headcold from hell. It wasn't that bad, I managed to have fun even though I was largely bed-ridden for those few days.

I got a little drunk the first night, and on the wednesday night I got TOTALLY hammered. Falling over- giggling madly - drunk. I've never been so pissed in my life. It would've been fantastic except SOMEBODY :P puked. The rest of the nights I either didn't drink, or had minimal cocktails. We had an awesome bar set up. To quote Jared; "'Twas the shit". It really was. We had alcohol races too. Red really does go faster.

Very fortunately, the good parts of schoolies managed to outweigh the fact that a few people decided to be utter fuckwads. I want to thank all the people who bothered to act like human beings, as opposed to giant walking rectums.
Schoolies was awesome. Thanks guys.fnord
