    Will they screw us over for Paper 2?

    No, I think they will specify TWO related texts for Module C. Because we don't have any sups for Mod A & B, Belonging has already gone, so this is the only question they can give us to reference our 2 texts. At least, I am going to tell myself that anyway. And I think the questions for Mod A &...

    I'm quite disappointed with Paper 1. The "celebrate relationships" with the creative writing was just too specifc- there was no room for people to interpret it as they wish. And I didn't like how they said "ONE related text", not two, despite the fact that the syllabus asks for two supplementary...

    Skrzynecki People! How many poems did you talk about and which ones??

    Feliks Skryznecki and Post Cards. Had I actually read the question thoroughly, I would have put in Migrant Hostel instead of my other related texts. Coulda.shoulda.woulda.

    Well you can only improve your time management for the modules :] I wrote about this guy who is in a hospital and he FEELS like he doesn;t belong (despite the fact that he does- because he's sick). He's reminiscing about his relationship with his wife and his house and how he belongs there...

    Do you lose marks for having 2 related texts?

    I think it is absolutely frakking stupid that it said "ONE" because the syllabus says you need 2 supplementry texts. I wrote 2 anyway. The douches can read it, and not mark it. I answered the question though, and I hope that they reflect one the vast number of people that wrote about 2. I am...

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    Oh, I did 2nd quote. I tried the first, but it didn't work. I warped the 2nd quote, and made it say in one part that my character existed at home. I said something like "I was not "prized" as I was, like my Suzie used to tell me. As a human, I didn't exist. I existed as a disease, a sarcoma..."

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    Mine is about a guy who goes to the hospital, and he FEELS like he doesn't belong there (despite that the doctors think he does). So, he's very uncomfortable, and he has no relationships with the people in the hospital, but he's constantly thinking about his relationship with his wife and his...

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    There seems to be no ambiguity with the "celebrate relationships" bit which is really frakking annoying because belonging= you can belonging, and not belonging. There wasn't anything about NOT BELONGING. Which just sucks balls. Preparing to write an angry blog now...

    I thought the exam today, in retrospect, was fucking stupid. The fact that the creative writing question asked for "celebrate relationships" because you can imagine that half the fucking state just wrote pieces about not belonging, and the breakdown of relationships. So, there has to be some...

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    Well, I had relationships to a person and a place. So, I would think so. Because most of the comprehension section was about "home" and place.

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    I think that the question was extremely stupid as it said "celebrating relationships". I would think would have written stories that had to do with "not belonging". So, I the relationships bit fit with my story, but the "celebrating" part didn't. Obviously, the BOS are after some cliche stories...

    Greek World 500-440 BC: The Persian Wars or The Delian League

    Yeah, just briefly looking at my notes, I wouldn't be able to write a very convincing answer for Athen/Spartan relations. Somewhere in your notes (regarding the First Peloponnesian War), did you mention the Battle of Tanagra (sp?) or the Battle of Oenphyta (<- no idea how to spell it).

    listening to notes while working out

    I have tried this. It took way to long to record just one topic from PDHPE, and I found that it didn't reinforce anything much. If I wasn't paying attention, then I'd miss things (which should have made me concentratre harder, but it didn't) But, if you're doing a language, I really suggest...

    Greek World 500-440 BC: The Persian Wars or The Delian League

    Last years question was horrendous! I have a feeling that it's going to have to do with "Changing relationships with allies" or "transformation of the delian league" Essentially, you're talking about the same thing...

    Creative Writing Questions.

    +1. Completely unrelated, but I have been telling myself that for CONFLICTING PERSPECTIVES. It gets me to sleep at night.

    Greek World 500-440 BC: The Persian Wars or The Delian League

    True, but one (out of the two) of the dot points was last years question- Explain the impact of the Persian Wars on Sparta/Athens. So, they could potentially ask us "The nature of the Peloponnesian League", plus some others that they've never asked from "2. Growth of Athens into Athenian Empire".

    Oh really? I get a letter from them saying I could get up to 10 extra bonus points if I went there because I live in that area. Heh, that's alright, because I have changed my preferences again (a few hours ago). I'm looking @ Health Sciences or Applied Science @ Syd or the equivalent @ UNSW...

    Ohh okay. Yeah, you do have some time :) Is it English Paper 2 and then your next exam is Continuers, or do you have another exam between that? I totz agree. My right arm is just throbbing with pain because I need to write 1000 words in 40 mins (which, I can do, but it's so darn hard *dies*)...

    Ooh, grooveh. I have some preferences down for Sydney, but alas my heart is set @ UTS. Maybe postgrad... :O! You're kidding! That's crazy. Please don't tell me that they're handwritten. It's specfically for this reason that I don't let my parents come into my room incase they'll throw...

    When is your last exam, and what are doing right after it?

    12th of November- Drama. Probs go home and beg dad to start a bonfire. I hope the fireban will have gone down by then. Otherwise, prepare for Nickelback the day after :)
