well, my script had boyfriend/girlfriend stuff in it...but my teacher basically told me to shove it in.. cause my play wasn't about that, but about the girl not wanting to move away, so i needed something for her to stay for (for her to chuck a tantrum about, without the audience ending up...

my crappy teacher has never really explained this to us. yet when she gives me crappy marks...she never really explain how i SHOULD be writing it! hints anybody???

no one in my class really gives a damn...but they still all do much better than me. but then....they are also top english students.

yep...world city - has global significance... mega city - pop greater than 8 million.!

yeah, well i'm not even half way through my exams so far! i have 3 next week and drama on the last day... all i have done so far is english and maths!

i know the BOS recently released a second standards package for extension english (i dont know when that was, but the second one has PoMo on it, i havent actually looked at it though, cause it wasn't on the network on the school computers).

i though it was one of the best questions that possible could have been asked. there are almost two hundred years between the two texts. contextually, the two societies have COMPLETELY different values. yes, the themes are the same...but hasn't how we view the class system changed? damn...why do...

i wrote title, introductory paragraph, and then launched into essaylike repsonse... a feature article is an opinion peice anyway!

i liked the cicada poem. i used it for the last question in that section too. there was some great imagery, environmental and physical change. plus the juxtoposition of the different environments the cicada existed in, and in it's freedom.

yes...extention english expects alot of us... 3 periods a week was never enough! expecially since i only ever had it on a monday and friday, which were the most missed days on the school calendar! i may not agree (or really ever fully understand) PoMo, but i still like it. I don't think...

Yeah, i know... but i was just saying that if they didn't mention a single event or character in the texts then there is no way that they could have possibly gotten band 6, reguarless of how good the rest of their answer was.... anway, how is everyone's timetables? i love mine :) english...

Yeah...it makes sense now that i've gone over and reread it! maybe cause i've now done most of my lear study! was really proud of myself fact, i think my lear notes will be my best for in in the HSC...havent finished them yet though...still have to write about most productions and structualist...

well then, that would be why they were in the top of band five, but not in 6! remember that the band 5/6 on the standards are not the BEST of them, they are still in the cut off range

hehe...thats alright, i thought id done worse in the analytical and better in the creative...but thery ended up the same...

The image of the burning down house is representative of the breakdown of society (in my view). so i guess you can see it as the breakdown of whatever you want. as there is a breakdown between family bonds and communication, there is an increase in the division in the kingdom??????? i...

Okay, these are the notes i wrote when my class discussed the production. What can I get out of this production? - The use of the red spotlight, esp when Gloucester lost his eyes. - It was a symbloic representaion (as opposed to naturalistic) - Lear should not have doubled up - There...

the fool was not included because the director felt that in today's context, the fool was just a waste of time as all the comical elements of it went over our head as the jokes are not as funny to todays audiences. Which, while it has some merit, she took out the ALL LICENSED FOOL! And whilst...

If absurdism isn't a word, why am is studying it drama for my HSC?

heh, heh....yessss! i noticed, except its less time now...i should really be studying, i keep saying, tomorrow you will do more than today...ha! didnt happen yet. Good old King lear... i saw that production at uni of NSW, the director was CRAP! We knew more about the play than she did. For...

First off, was that the EXACT wording of the question???? Well, personally, i would look at the first sene (but that necause i think we spent alot of time on it in class, but it also has alot of scope in terms of the theme of power.) Don't forget who you are writing for, and the text...
