    best movie endings?

    old thread but okay... Zentropa/ Europa (1991)- really beautiful imagery Idi I Smotri (Come And See) (1985)- amazing use of historical footage. Moulin Rouge! Romeo + Juliet Lilya- 4ever (2002)- depressing. Dogville (2003)- shocking, will definately give out a strong moral reaction The...

    Why I burned my 'Proof of Aboriginality'

    I'm not attacking the government's response to it, I'm attacking the average Australian's response to it. And even with the government, this problem has existed for over 40 years and its still not solved. My point I was trying to make was this: Taking someone out of their Aboriginal community...

    Why I burned my 'Proof of Aboriginality'

    This. I've held the belief for long that Aboriginal Australians are often singled out, portrayed as 'dumb' and needing the white man's help. I hate it with a fiery passion when high schools and universities go on about their 'generous' bureseries and scholarships in their booklets. It takes...

    Abortion

    I'd say that if you are not ready to deal with the consequences of having sex, you are not ready to have sex. If one of the ways of 'dealing with pregnancy' is an abortion, then that's okay with me.

    HELP Why UNSW?

    I'm planning to attend UNSW, for either a B.A/ B.Sci or B.A/B.F.A. Can't make up my mind. Reasons to attend UNSW (overall): diverse range of people, strength of each faculty, flexible university (you don't have to apply through UAC if you want to internally transfer, you just need to meet...

    Abortion

    I'm for abortion. I think people who are "pro-life" really underestimate the hardships of pregnancy. Yes, the baby can get adopted. But the woman who goes through this pregnancy will have to watch her own health go out of control, go through sometimes very severe financial and emotional...

    Is chatswood library crowded?

    Reasons to NEVER go to Chatwood library 1. For some weird reason it ALWAYS makes me feel sleepy. I have no idea why, it just does. 2. Think about all the work you plan to get done. Now half it. Then get a 1/4 of that half. That's how much you'll probably get done. 3. You won't get a table...

    If a teacher who marked a x-subject for the HSC for x-amount of years a good teacher

    Re: If a teacher who marked a x-subject for the HSC for x-amount of years a good teac I'll give you four examples of teachers who I know who have done HSC marking. 1. An English Teacher- biased because she's part of my extended family, but she is incredibly sympathetic and from my...

    Desperate help with my UNDA application?

    So here is the situation. 1. They ask for religion. Is saying I'm a Catholic/ Christian going to help? I honestly have no idea what to put down. I'm atheist, in a very Catholic family, and one of my ''community involvements'' is for my local parish. 2. I have a condition that's really...

    I need help with a situation involving my brother?

    I'm 17, in my hsc year, and my brother who is 16 just finished year eleven. He is constantly bullying me, harrassing me, making fun of my academic results, even though I try so hard (I have diagnosed dysthymia, frequent episodes of MDD, ADHD which really impacts on my studying abilities). He's...

    For all those planning to Transfer into Med, what's your backup plan if...?

    There was a time where I was dying to do medicine, and well, there was no 'back up plan.' I thought undergrad could be a B.A/ B.Sci and then MBBS for post grad (and later training for psychiatry) However, the more I thought about it, the more I realised how unrealistic it was for me. Even if I...

    Terrible results so far (mostly) - what could this mean for my ATAR

    It will negatively effect your ATAR- but if you nail your external, there is still some hope.

    What do you want to do as a Doctor?

    oh that's fantastic news, thanks for the post. For myself and others, alot of people aren't interested in becoming a traditional doctor, but something more particular (for myself, psychiatry). I've also heard of plans to change it from MBBS to MD, and really- I see no reason why it should take...

    So apparently they are getting rid of Belonging...

    It is important that they change it every 5 or so years. There is already so much information on belonging online, such as theisis, essays, etc. It is an easy topic to analyse and find related texts for. IMO, a 45/45 in 2015 (edit) would be more impressive than a 45/45 in 2012.

    sad about finishing high school?

    No, I'm not sad, I'm happy. If I cry, I'm going to be so ashamed of myself. I really hate my school.

    What do you want to do as a Doctor?

    yeah, and the reason why psychiatry appeals to me way more than being a psychologist is that psychiatrists can prescribe medication and give someone a proper diagnosis. A lot of mental illnesses go by never diagnosed. A question I'm wondering if anyone here could answer: Am I able to go...
