First of all, to all people who graduate in June, I live in Australia so I graduate in November. Basically, we have this shitty system called ATAR, Ave the uni course for film and tv needs 85 to get in and I don't think that's achievable because I am flunking. What's bit helping is everyday my parents keep trying me for disappointed they are that I'm not studying enough and that I'm getting shit grades. That combined with school stored being shit learning, but about surviving recess and lunch because i have no friends to be with, and I hate being the weird kid being seen alone like a loser, I just try to hide and survive each school day. So this obviously makes me sad and (undiagnosed) depressed, so I just try to suppress everything scrolling on my phone. My daily screen time is probably above 10 hrs. Then that makes my parents worse and my anxiety about my uni course, worse. Luckily for me, that's not all. I turn 18 in mid August, and an planning to go to a place to get HRT (BC I'm trans) and in going to need to have the courage to do that by myself and hide it from my parents. But then again, good can I every be 100% sure. Like I said, I've been studying myself for years, I hereby know who I am. I haven't done many fem things because I can't let my parents find out. Luckily for me, that's not all. I was scrolling Reddit and found this post https://www.reddit.com/r/countttt/s/GRpNZ267u2

And not in scared shitless that that's going to be me. Pay of the reason why I want the specific uni course is because the school has done clubs I could join which could help me socially. But if im to doing to get in this could be me. Unless I do a different course. Bit there are no good careers. Everything is just about supporting capitalism and companies exploiting the world and other humans for extra money. I do not want to sort that in any way. I would actually die if that was my job.

Lastly, I react to go on a gap year program. It's this thing where you can with at a Japanese ski resort. I just react to get out of Australia for a year. So I do that, but then I have the same social issues as the uni and school which could occur. And then i also need to bring overseas enough HRT and syringes to last me. That's if there's not a huge waitlist and it turns out I don't get why. Then after that I want to go to camp america, because that's another program that pays you to be there so I can afford it, save the same issues. Also after Camp America I raced to go to burning man but I have no supplies or transportation but who knows. And tbh aftee curbing man I've been thinking of what to do and all I know is that America is the land of guns. I'm going to stop taking after all that subtext

Finally, I just want to mention what happened at my formal (Australia prom). I brought my friend from outside of school, and basically I watched my entire year level have this like secret side I was never aware of. Like they were all so connected. There was a video of basically everyone except me. There was a video of a guy doing the proposal to a girl with everyone in the year level... Except me. My friend never said anything but I just knew he was thinking I'm such a fucking loser. Then when I went home that day, I went on my phone for a few hours until like 4am, and just ignored it

Idk if U read this far but yea. I don't know what size to say

So I've recently been picking up the 4k discs with blu ray discs because I've always heard that 4k discs have the best quality but scratch, and blu rays are durable. However, there are a few Arrow titles I kinda want the 4k of, that don't come with the Blu disc. So I'm just wondering from people with older Arrow 4ks have they survived well or is it worth only getting the Blu ray, saving money and having a disc that lasts longer

I'm just curious because the internet makes it seem pretty easy and I just doubt that bit I have no proof

So I wanna know if my experience is the same as anyone elses. I think I'm trans, but I have a very not happy life. 9 basically go to school, am alone, them compensate by staring at my phone whenever I'm home. Now I feel like I have just lost the ability to feel emotions. I say I'm trans because I like thinking I could be a girl, but I don't really feel it. Like I haven't had a haircut in 3 years, I love my long hair, and the thought of having short hair makes me feel ick. I feel like I want to have breasts, but I don't really feel dysphoric about. I just feel a huge sense of nothingness. I saw isttvg and I felt nothingness. I feel like I want srs, but I feel nothing about my current. I just feel nothing about everything but maybe I'd prefer if I was female. So idk what or who I am at this point

Maybe I just want a different life and it's projecting in this... Does anybody relate

Would you be happy on your deathbed of you were a successful filmmaker, but all your films were bad/won't be remembered/is no one's favourite film?

How social is this course - ik people say the bulk of Swinburnes social life is clubs, but with filmmaking I feel like it's a rlly wholesome group of ppl who try to connect so I was just wondering, with this course does your cohort become like friends or is the social aspect of Swinburne whilst doing this course still just the clubs

Hi, so I'm 17 turning 18 in 2 months so I basically have freedom to do whatever I want. However, since I am broke af, informed consent is the only thing I can afford. I heard this place had informed consent, so I was just wondering if anyone has gone here and done it, and I just have a few questions:

1. how many appointments before you had access to HRT

2. What type of appointment do I book

3. How expensive is the HRT

4. what's the wait time for HRT and appointments?

TYSM in advance 🩷

I have had enough of Imprint. No new special features. No new art. But I do have to give them credit: they are very innovative when it comes to prices. The Halloween steelbook set was AUD 90 per film. Films that have been released countless times, for much cheaper. All they do is pack paper products they no one cares about such as posters and artcards and charge an arm and a leg for it. It's enough. As a community we need to send a message. I say as a community, no one buys from Imprint. Send them a message. Tell them we've had enough of their shit releases, and their shit prices. So let's not buy anything from Imprint next month!

My grades are pretty bad

Spec: 30% (teacher said last year after exams the sac marks were raised by 20% tho) - average abt 50-60

Media: 60% - idk average

Bus man: 75% - my and cohorts average

Literature: 60% average - idk class average but ik Im guessing like 70-80

Last year I didethods and got 35 raw idk scale yet, and I did a very for 10% of 4th subject

Is it possible? Am I cooked? Also I'll get 8 aggregate points for my course so would that push me/make it possible for the 85 ATAR?

I feel like a huge majority of this movies fanbase is LGBTQ because of the parallels of hiding and coming out, but I need a way to confirm/prove that theory, so how many of y'all are LGBTQ (obvi, I am)

I am convinced, the only reason people do literature is to brag to others. Like who the fuck knows what the word polyptoton means?? Me! Because I did literature. It's fucking useless to know what that means irl, but I know it. Also jk the only reason to do lit is BC 2 hour exam instead of 3

I'm currently in y12 and don't know which school I want to go to. A bit factor is the social life so I just wanna know if the Swinburne community is open/social to trans people or if it's not a good place to be
