    Listening: Some links that might be helpful

    The listening exercises are great, thank you SO MUCH. I hate the listening section so much. Especially the last few questions. Seriously, I wouldn't be able to do that in English.

    Riiight. Good luck with that.

    Who would you turn gay for?

    I'm gay. And the first post says 'or straight for'. You douche. :)

    Who would you turn gay for?

    Johnny Depp (only as Jack Sparrow), or Jonathon Rhys Meyers (only as the guy from Bend It Like Beckham... whose name escapes me). That's pretty much it.

    How much have you written so far? Freaking a little.

    I finished my first full draft yesterday. (Although some parts have already been drafted and redrafted.) I've got 7943 words. :)

    Oh My ****ing GOD. I = Worlds Biggest Idiot

    Wow. Our school has a much stricter assessment policy. If you can't come the day of an assessment you have to call the school in the morning and tell them, then get a doctor's certificate/other proof that you were away for a valid reason. And if you don't do this you get 0. Like that. It...

    'after the bomb' elective for ext eng

    I HATE AFTER THE BOMB SO MUCH. ARGH. And I can't even drop because I'm doing Extension II and I love that and if I did I'd have 10 units anyway which I don't want and argh. I hate it.

    homosexuality - sexual identity crisis.

    Up until the schoolies part (I'm in Year 12 now), this is pretty much exactly the same as my experience. And since you said it's the same as live_without_it, I guess we're starting to see a pattern here? I think that 'crushes' that you have in primary school/as a younger child are usually just...

    Can the net make a person gay ?

    Pfft. Nothing can 'make you gay'. You're gay or you're not. It's not something that you can choose or something that can just change like that.

    Okay, thanks everyone!

    Common food that YOU have never eaten or avoided.

    I've eaten pretty much every common food. But I've never had KFC or Red Rooster. If that counts.

    How gay are you?

    33%. Those questions were obviously just stereotypes. But funny nonetheless.

    question

    I was just wondering, do you guys think it's appropriate to put swear words in your major work? I only have a few, it's not like it's every second word or anything. I don't think the passages would be quite as effective without them, so I don't really want to take them out.

    Last Line of your Major Work?

    She drove over the brown land and she was for once grateful for its size and its expanse. May change.

    First Three Words of your MW (Just 'Cause)

    So far: To Sophie, As I'm planning on changing that though.

    prologue/character profile - please let me know what you think!

    You have a good, engaging style, but the content seemed kind of random. Maybe the jump to the music discussion could be made more... fluid? (I'm having a bad word day, I'm sure there's a better one than this.) So far the character feels quite standard and very ambiguous (I'm also not sure if...

    Extension Two Day

    The Reflection Statement part was the best. I hadn't really thought about it at all. Apart from that, I had heard most of it before, but it was good reinforcement/clarification.

    2007 Short Story Titles

    Mmm, I have a title. A working title. Indignities.

    Homosexuality in Australia

    This poll is stupid. You don't 'support' homosexuality. You can support gay rights, you can support gay people, you can support gay marriage. Homosexuality itself does not need 'supporting'.

    2007 Short Story Titles

    Mmm. Ditto. Mine doesn't have a title yet. It probably won't have one until I've finished at least the first draft. Usually when I write I don't sit down and try to think of a title. It tends to just come to me at some point. Sometimes I think of the title before anything else. Sometimes it's...
