    Romanticism, people!

    That's a bit crap... Imagination is one of the key elements of Romanticism, it basically relates to creativity and the fact that composers even make shit. - Not that you don't know that, just that its strange you wouldn't have any notes on it. Our teacher drummed that into us every day. Also; do...

    Dumb Human story option

    Besides Out of Africa / Multiregional I found it pretty easy. Studied so much technology stuff the day before I talked about more types than the question was worth, haha. Definitely went better than trials but not perfect; I know I got at least 2 multiple choice wrong and Kidney / Identifying...

    General Thoughts: General Mathematics

    That is the one part of General Maths I find weird; the fact that its logical. In half yearlys I got a question like that wrong, because .4 of a cup doesn't equal a cup so its 15, but then in trials there was a similar thing and I did it logically and my teacher said it was wrong, there were 23...

    General Thoughts: Modern History

    I thought it was all pretty great -South Africa (9) -Nelson Mandela (14) -Indochina (6 :/ ) With the conflict stuff though, I don't know about other topics, but in Indochina you learn SO much. Like insane amounts of stuff... and the questions were both about minimal things so if you've brushed...

    National: 9 Personality: 13 (very sore hand) Conflict: 6 I don't know what conflict you guys did but I found it hard to elaborate in Indochina.

    Best pen for writing fast

    Yeah, i used a gel ink metal nib pen today; i think its ball point, and it increased my speed so much- first tome i've ever had time left to go back over things in an english exam.

    So who didn't title their story

    You don't have to title your essay so why would you have to title your story? Man, I was so scared but turned out pretty good... The technique I said was 'body language' for the Visual text. And page counts 7, 7, 9.

    related texts for romanticism

    I did end up using 'Into The Wild' - the way I saw it, it was a textbook version of Romantcism - individualism, appreciation of nature etc. It just isn't set in the time period- So I guess I was thinkning its still relevant today? Also did an artwork which I thought was written about terribly...

    Romanticism

    Tell me about it- I swear all the English teachers at my school are just faiiled writers whose sole aim in life is to push their stupidity into young minds. Every time I have Extension ENglish I have to talk myslef into going- I'd rather stick pins in my face, to be honest. Ah, but that is...

    Related texts for Romanticism- artworks?

    I am already planning on doing Sean Penn's 'Into The Wild', but I'm not sure what would be required if I spoke about an artwork. Something like in an art essay or?? Help would be much appreciated. We are doing Coleridge Northanger Abbey, and Wuthering Heights.
