As the sun rose on the second official day of Schoolies 2015, it comes as no surprise that many of the young school leavers had already taken to social media in a bid to permanently and publicly record the beginning of their week of debauchery. After spending a night out on the town in the Gold Coast's notorious Surfers Paradise, many turned the camera on themselves to capture a drunken selfie or to their intoxicated mates as they skolled wine from a 'goon sack' or toppled over on the streets.
