    Specific Poems for Paper 2

    he's talking about how life is pointless, he has a stoic, accepting tone, which creates a sense of helplessness in the reader. themes of balance, referring to the gyres he's obsessed with, every action has a reaction, that kind of thing.

    Not attending HSC exam?

    hmm, that's what we were told at school but i just looked up the examination procedures and it seems that you are allowed to leave, and potentially come back. that is the stupidest thing ever.

    Not attending HSC exam?

    you can't leave at all because of privacy issues. if you have a legitimate reason for being late, and i mean something that was excessively out of your control, you can go into another room and do the exam if you get to school before the end of the actual exam, that way, no one at all across the...

    Best pen for writing fast

    +1. parker pens are amazing. i had a lucky pink one (got it as a coaching prize - best thing i ever got from netball) but lost it and used my mum's one in trials. she's getting me a new one cause hers is about 20 years old and a little untrustworthy, but still writes brilliantly. they're not...

    Yeats' poetry, how many poems?

    i know the ones about nihilism, cyclic nature of history etc really well. so second coming, irish airman, easter 1916, and a bit of wild swans at coole. and i could tell you when you are old off by heart. if anything is said about among schoolchildren, i may aswell just say give me a zero.

    christianity in the media.

    the ad is on the link :). it's not upsetting or anything, i just find it really odd, and commercialised. it's actually a cute ad, and if it wasn't for jesus i would probably like it. and that's not saying that i'm trying to take a negative view on the church, i just find it unsettling, the...
