Indeed. What? As for the section... I could've done so much better if I hadn't left this section until last. Felt fairly confident in the other three but then was running slightly short on time, so I had to rush. Would've preferred an Agrippina's relationship with [X] question but can't...

Same here, except Old Kingdom Egypt instead of the Julio-Claudians. I'm stressing out majorly... the topics are just too damn large. I'm pretty much scouring the syllabus and just trying to work out what questions they're likely to ask. *sigh* I feel sick.

Mmm yeah everyone had gotten me really paranoid there'd only be maybe 1 essay in this exam. I'm not exactly a fan of the different text types - practised a Feature Article on History/Memory yesterday as an extra precaution for example. When I glanced through in reading time it was such a relief...

I found it a fine question really. Linked fairly easily with all that filial duty stuff and his loyalty to his father. Threw in some Laertes comparisons with Hamlet in regards to loyalty to Ophelia and action as well for good measure. Worked fairly well with all the ideas and quotes I'd prepared...

Ahaha I love how all these people I know are slowly finding me on BoS *during* exams. Procrastination is so great. :P

Mmmm it did seem a tad easy in areas. Still, I'm thankful I didn't have to worry about different text types. I'd much rather earn my marks on how well I addressed the question than how well I stayed with a speech/article/interview format.

I wouldn't mind if it's a feature article or something even. I did a practice run of that for History & Memory today and it worked out pretty well. Still, on the off chance all 3 do end up as simply essays I'd much prefer that haha. I'm not too big on different formats if I can help it.

...why is worried*man* female?

This. I knew points to make and quotes, etc, but I didn't memorise an essay. I can adapt to a question fine. It was more just my own fault that I leapt straight to the quote because I assumed it would ask for two relateds like every other assessment on belonging I'd done thus far. *sigh* I'm...

Gah same problem here. Can't believe I misread the question... it was so simple. What sucks even more is that I had plenty of information to sustain an essay on two texts, but CUT some of that information cause I was in "3 Texts" mode and just jumped straight to addressing the statement... Bleh.

Gaaaah English Advanced it all depends on the module. Fine for comparative study and belonging, alright for history and memory.... Hamlet makes me want to curl up into a ball and die though. English Extension.. haven't even really dealt with it properly yet. Oh how I detest Life Writing right...

Bleh, haven't really done much at all since trials. Basically had a week-and-a-bit long holiday-ish aside from still going to school. I mean I'm keeping up with homework cause we still have a bit of the syllabus left for both Ancient and Modern, but in terms of proactive study.... haven't done...

Um, question about the UNSW Open Day. Does anyone know if this includes the COFA campus? Will it be open for any inspections or anything as well to have a look around? Or will there be any COFA-related information at the main UNSW campus? Just wondering since I'm thinking of it as a possible...

Extension 2 English didn't cost that much. Only $10 or something for the binding plus however much the ink for printing costs, but I can't exactly calculate it. Art, however... well I thought mine had been a bit steep but after seeing someone spent $2,500 I'm actually a bit relieved, haha. I...

Bah, please tell me I'm not the only person still with the first draft of their reflection statement to write? Kind of wanted the teacher to read over it before I put it in with my major.. so that essentially leaves me tonight or MAYBE tomorrow night if I really stretch it to finish it up...

Ah crap, I read that post before I voted and accidentally hit ABC News as best in my opinion. If there's some way to edit the poll could it possibly be swapped to another vote on Channel Ten? My bad heh. ABC and SBS > All else.

Eh, I don't necessarily see anything *wrong* with the Halo series. It just gets a tad too much hype for what it is. Sure it's fun, but it's not the greatest FPS out there (and that said, I actually don't like CoD: Modern Warfare either). Fine for what it is, and no major gameplay flaws that I...

I find that a tad vindictive honestly. It should be enough that these 'bad' people are removed from the society, so we can continue about with our 'good' lives, ideally undisrupted. If the person is locked up in a cell for all eternity and won't ever truly see the light of day again, what should...

Like a few of the above posters, I really just get absolutely nowhere in terms of study during the holidays. Mainly reserved those for my two major works plus general relaxation to recharge after assessment and exam periods. In terms of actual study-study though... I must say I'm a bit of a...

Bugger. I've finished my Extension II English Major Work, just got to still write the reflection statement for it. As for Visual Arts... Well I've done 6/7 of my drawings but I have to restart my 7th that was originally half done. Very tedious felt-tip pen work so it's kind of time consuming...
