    'm sick of being single :(

    Go find her, start talking and be interesting. Don't start talking about stuff most people talk about, make her remember something special about you eg that time you poisoned your neighbour's cat by spiking its food because it was eating your dogs

    What's a good present to get for a teacher

    Get her all that cliched stuff, then buy a nice card and write something good in it. Not some "thank you for being an awesome teacher" crap coz they get that every year, put some effort in.

    Good to have smart friends?

    Picture this: the top 3 maths students are in one group. It's always the top 2 fighting it out, and one never fails coming third. The competition is healthy, but sucks when you don't win. My friend asked me to analyse an image for her, and then randomly slips in "I was gonna, you know, twist...

    Song: Welcome to My Life by Simple Plan

    No. Not good. AT ALL. It's too pedestrian for analysis. There is no way you can draw out anything of substance to use in an English essay. Even as a teeny little back up text. Even if you have a mega analysis of it, don't use it.

    I'm under the impression that it's C. Since the second bite is the same as the first (10% of the original bar), the percentage eaten would be 1/9 * 100 = 11%

    tips on essays

    That's a sign you don't know your stuff that well. Study it more. Especially the context, significance and aftermath of the Mabo and Wik cases.

    HELP!!!! in writing a good story in creative writing

    1) Have brilliant punctuation, grammar and a good grasp on the mechanisms of the English vocabulary. 2) Attain a controlled use of language forms and features, and use it to construct texts that reflect [insert idea] of the human condition. 3) I'll be blunt here. Be different, but make sense...

    which subject to drop

    Any combination of subjects is able to give you a good UAI. Choose which subject you like better, if your reasons for doing any particular subject are related to another person, then stuff that reason. Be selfish - choose whatever you like.
