Stupid selective school prestige stuffed me up. I was destined to go to a nearby private school which I can just walk to and sleep til like 8 if I wanted to. >.< But nooo... have to get up at 6.30 and suffer the agony of public transport (really bad in this hot weather in the arvos omg)

i used 2 get up @ 6-6.30 (till yr 10), then i discovered the joys of waking up just b4 7 lol now i've got 30-35 min 2 get ready..suits me v. well lol

I used to wake up at 7.15 when I had my first class at 7.45.... lol I'm super fast at getting ready when I have to be!

Thats slack, I take ages to get ready for school. Because I like relaxing, maybe always getting up at 6am has something to do with it.

it takes me about 1 and a half hour to get to my school. I really didn't have a choice just I want to go to the selective high school.

 

[Misturi]

under 10 (if there isn't much traffic for the bus) or about 15 mins.

I was really lucky I got into Caringbah Selective High School, and I live in Caringbah!
I catch a bus from out the front and it takes me straight there in about 20 minutes, or I can walk in about 35.
Sometimes I can get lifts from my mum which is good too.

i travel 2 and a bit hrs in total going to school and back.. two trains and changing at sydenham, it's a pain in the bum, but it's worth it, going from a crap school to a good school (there's no good school's in my area!)

travelling 2 hours is too much...unless ur going to james ruse that is.

2hrs, over half way to Melbourne for me. Thats 4hrs a day travel for a 6hr school day, so nearly half your day is spent travelling to from school.

i used to live out near campbelltown, so all up travelling to petersham and back every day was about 3 hours. we moved out to petersham about five months in though, and although i got used to the travel pretty quickly at the time, i can't imagine doing it now. it's nice not having to get up til 8.15 if i don't get ready slowly, and even better for my thursdays, where i dont start til 10.30.

[Marie-Paule]
