    does anyone else have random songs in their head during exams??

    all through my four unit maths exam, all three hours of it, i had 'purple people eaters' by alvin and the chipmunks going round and round in my head. NO idea how it got there.

    French continuers - how'd you go

    i thought the exam was just generally a bit wierd. R&R A was very language-based, usually there's more of just direct translation. and what was with that justify the title question? what does that have to do with french?!?! i didn't like any of the writing questions, i thought they were...

    How was the exam?

    i thought the exam was pretty hard. i was aiming for 80%, but calculated after that the most i can get is something like 75%, so i'm not far off, but it's still a bit of a disappointment. the induction was really hard, i made things up along the way, so there's no way i'll get all four...

    Parlons-nous le francais ici!

    mais bien sur on ne peut pas utiliser ni les tables de verbes ni les dictionnaires de verbes. c'est le dictionnaire normal, c'est tout. qui a le trac pour demain? moi, je me sense confiante, mais bien sur en peu nerveuse. je ne sais pas ce que je devrais faire pour preparer, j'ai regarde un...

    2005 Trial Questions

    Hey all, So I've been trying to think of what I can do to prepare for this english exam that's in 6 days... And the problem is, we don't have access to a whole lot of practise questions because journeys has only been done once before. So, it'd be great if people could put up their trial...

    syllabus dot-point

    OK, so I'm attempting to make notes but I'm having trouble with this dot-point: Explain that artefacts from long submerged wrecks will be saturated with dissolved chlorides and sulfates. All the text books identify this but don't really explain it. Explaining means providing a why/how, but...

    king lear readings

    does anyone know how important it is to have specific readings of king lear (eg. if i decide to do a feminist reading and an existentialist reading)? i'm a bit confused as to what is expected of us in this topic. at school, our teachers have really been stressing the specific readings, but i've...

    Over 90 in the journey's section

    fakingtheday, i know exactly what you mean. imaginative journeys are crap, but then again, all journeys are crap. it's a crappy topic, and i'm pissed off they couldn't think of something slightly more interesting for us to study. but hey, that's the bos for you.

    sms???phone??? in person?

    yeah, it's alright to do stuff like that by sms, but it's SO much better to just call her and tell her over the phone. if you start out on sms, it's hard to break away, so then all you're left with is this constant messaging relationship that's pretty pathetic.

    Has Anyone seen Outfoxed?

    I'm doing Outoxed as a related text. It's perfectly fine for comparison to Frontline episodes, but I think you should remember that you're supposed to be synthesising ALL your texts. You won't do as well as you probably can if you compare one episode to another text, and then do another episode...
