    Religious affiliation

    Yes, exactly that. I don't understand why anyone would affiliate themselves with a particular 'association' when they don't know what the fundamental principles of it are. I am quite serious about this because aside from religious moderation, there are religious ones who will die for their...

    No problem! Was a pleasure to help.

    Religious affiliation

    Good question. I believe I am more inclined to Mahayana Buddhism. I personally think it's a different way of thinking between Westerners and Easterners (generalisation) that affects how Buddhism is practised by these two parties. A good analogy for this is over-the-counter medicine versus...

    sleep deprivation for HSC students

    I feel guilty. Having just started year 11, I stay up to 4am doing my assignments. At times. Other than that, I have a lot of homework. Not kidding.

    Pre-uni tutoring

    I attended Pre Uni in yrs 5 and 6. They were well worth it. I never attended those holiday courses though, that's just a con in my view. You really can't cram, what you can do is just study at home, individual study is best. My friends did years 7- 10 at Pre Uni. I didn't. We're all from...
