    10 or 12 Units for Year 12 (Poll)

    That sucks. How do they know, though?

    Did you enjoy Emma by Jane Austen?

    She writes formally and does not engage in the idealistic explorations as her 18th century counterparts seem to do (Dickens etc) and always see rhetorical balance as the primary purpose. Jane Austen writes brilliantly, just do some research on her style and you'll understand why.

    Does anyone write poetry?

    Or supressed sexual charges. Not like me. :)

    Best/Most Useful Textbook

    I use: 1. Maths in Focus (school) 2. Fitzpatrick 3. Online Tutoring at www.mathematics.com.au I find Cambridge has too many irrelevant questions and since the explanations are all done in mathematic jargon, it is difficult to grasp certain easy concepts. But that's just me. :)

    I got 0 in my ext test

    LOL. That scared, and it's not even HSC yet. You gotta deal with your stress issues. The lowest I got in MX1 was 68% because I didn't study. So STFU and go and study.

    It's short for Screen Name.

    bookshelves

    Yeah, girl power! A really good oak or mahogany shelf from an independent furniture is the way to go and make sure you get a really big one because they'll last you a good 20 - 30 years if you take good care of it. :)

    Does anyone write poetry?

    Depressed people also make great artists and musicians. :)

    What are you currently Reading?

    Movie altered certain plotlines from the book quite significantly? That's what I heard.

    Anybody planning on sacrificing something for yr 12?

    I'm going to only go on MSN when there are no assessments, which will be never because we are going to be bombarded with them. Using BoS only for the resources + limiting to 1 post a day if possible. Limit pointless internet searching, YouTubing etc.

    Jamie Oliver's Eat to Save Your Life

    That's not on purpose too, is it? Besides, it's stupid not to want to be corrected, and it's a bad habit I just have. :)

    What should i drop nxt year??

    You don't know what might happen next year. I reckon just keep it for a week or two, then decide.

    Term 3 Goals

    Finish assessment at least 3 days before they are due = Somewhat achieved? Actually no. Do homework the night it is received = Mostly achieved. Top at least 2 subjects = Achieved. Score a 90% in all tests = So very close!

    Jamie Oliver's Eat to Save Your Life

    THEY'RE. I'm being pedantic, but it doesn't matter. It's good for you.

    How many books have you read so far?

    The elderly and unemployed would have read heaps more on average and balanced out against those who are a book per year type peoples. I think if I were to read perpetually (instead of spending all that procrastinating), I'd get close to a hundred books annually.

    brothers grimm

    True. Take Alice in Wonderland for example. People have told me Lewis Carroll was on a high when he wrote the book, and the entire thing is a nonsensical, sexual allegory. For example how many ways can you interpret, 'down the rabbit hole'?

    800 word Harry Potter Sequel

    LOL @ POTTERCAST. Used to love HP in Year 5. Now it's losing its touch.

    Gatsby hair wax

    LOL. I've never used it, but I have used it on my brother's hair and it looks fine. However, I like the soft, surfey look more, so I prefer to use the Garnier Fructis Surf Hair Putty on his hair. (And it doesn't look like it's obviously been overly styled after it's used) lol @ Oriental asians...
