But all those words aren't even hard! GG did give me the motivation to get into a good uni. Especially towards end of season 2/3 when they fight for uni spots at Yale. Lol.
That asian chick that ends up going yale is stellar. Coming from a year 10-going to year 11, ahem, *doing standard* vs. English extension 2 kid. Yeah, they are pretty big words (answering your very condescending question).

I'm not trying to be condescending, trust me. And the key to doing well in english, is not knowing big words, but having sophisticated ideas.

What do you mean in terms of sophisticated ideas?
Say if you're doing Module B right? Critical Study of Text. Well, you have to show the marker that you pick up on ideas that other kids in the state don't. Showing that you have a more profound understanding than everyone else. If you argue the same point, and just use bigger words, the markers get bored.

I very much agree on that. +1

The Chasers War on Everything
Yes We Canberra
The Hamster Wheel

Those shows give me good memories :)

But not only that, I also wouldn't want to miss SBS PopAsia :p

To all those people who have watched Sherlock BBC season 2, any promising theories on how Sherlock survived that fall? My mind isn't creative enough to generate any possible ways he could have survived because they all have some flaw in it.

Glee. I know a lot of people don't like it, but I absolutely love it. Season 3 is definitely not as good as Season 1 and 2, but hey, it's still Glee.

Yeah, it's the best. You laugh at their sheer stupidity and it's a guilty pleasure. You laugh at how you would never do the things they do in real life and how stupid their ideologies are.
They're probably all acting/being attention whores i reckon.

1. Dexter - Best TV series ever, I wouldn't miss this for the world!
2. Suits - This show is exactly my thing lol, it's me personified on a screen
3. Breaking Bad - Probably the most interesting show ever, it's really entertaining and the drama + acting is top class
4. Supernatural - Don't think I've missed an episode...ever! I love this show, i remember the premier back when I was in year 7 lol
5. White Collar - This show has class and quality, great storyline and absolute, quality entertainment if you enjoy drama
6. Fringe - Very absorbing storyline...if you miss an episode you've lost the plot, it's about alternate universes', fringe science etc. I love it, but it gets confusing at times
7. Mad Men - Just started watching it...OMG I love it <3 So good lol

I've been downloading every episode for a while now, usually using Megaupload...when I got shut down I was so pissed off lol. Now I use mediafire and other filesharing sites, but the days of ddl are limited, i'll have to start streaming soon lol.

I do watch House, Modern Family, Community, HIMYM and BBT as well.

I loved Lost and I started Alcatraz, pretty good so far :p


Ah I love my TV SHOWS!

OT: Doctor Who, Sherlock, Gruen Transfer/Planet, HIMYM (though not so much anymore, just not feelin it), It's Always Sunny & Torchwood (before it finished :().

I know there are lots of popular theories RE: the laundry truck because it pulls in/out just before and just after the fall. I've also read a few about it being Moriarty's body because the news report on John's blog never mentions his body.

I like to think, myself, that it is just a body double or something. Because IIRC, he falls perpendicular to St Barts but lands parallel to it? Like, unless he tried to do some sick air twist. And with Molly's help, it would be pretty easy to identify the body as Sherlock's. And I mean, yeah a body double would be hard to find or whatever, but Irene Adler did it in 2.01

Oh okay, I thought you were like watching to aspire to be them.
