we weren't asked anything on Pentecostalism, just Christianity in general. go over personal devotion (prayer) and the importance of ethical teachings (mostly the ten commandments, the beatitudes and the commandment of love)

my primary school and 7-10 school were both Dominican (ie catholic schools originally set up and run by the Dominican sisters after St Dominic DeGuzman). all dominican schools have the same motto and similar crests: Veritas or "truth". i got very sick of the whole "it means being true to...

there are supposedly 4 bonus ATAR points with Newcastle uni if you're considered local (score!) but i wanna get into the UNSW which is gonna be even harder than Newy without bonus points i'm guessing

my maths is beyond epic fail. i blame the teacher. i started at ext. level and crashed and burned at 27% for our first test. so i was told by the coordinator that staying in ext. level would be like bashing my head against a brick wall repetitively. she said it to a group but i was included...

biology is mindnumbingly easy for everyone i know who is doing it and myself. if memorising chunks of information is a talent of yours then you are going to do excellent in it. a lot of it is common sense. you should already be able to give reasons why australia is part of gondwana and be able...

i've been reading some of these posts about people rethinking their subjects for next year. i picked the subjects i want to do in year 12 last year because that seems logical to me. however, what people have been saying about scaling is starting to worry me. i want to study medicine once i...

the worst is over. i'm actually feeling really good. maybe i shouldn't of had so much "rescue remedy"....lol! i know i'll feel even more great after two weeks caravaning around New Zealand. yay! good luck for whatever you've got next :)

yes i finished the paper. what i could finish :( awwe poor you with the chem paper. i did that on an english test and lost half my marks once. at least your maths will make up for it. i answered every question for bio and ran out of room for more than half the questions :) so i'm back on track i...

i find that comsumerism is taking over all religion and non-religion. christmas is about showing love through presents, easter the same with chocolate....and yet still it's wrong to put up a christmas tree because it excludes other faiths :( they're not even part of the bible or church teachings!

my maths was epic fail today, just like i expected. i borrowed a friend's excell book this morning but it was written completely different to the school textbook :( i only answered half of it. oh well. i'm looking forward to bio tomorrow :) i'm sure you're much better prepared than me

i only ghost people who i know hate being ghosted. you get a better reaction when you're caught. "omg! exactly how long where you there?!?" is much more fun then "what the hell are you doing?" "um, ghosting?" tip: if you want to ghost someone in a group of people, do something like wave or...

i couldn't agree more with everything you've been saying in the thread about the rationality of religion :) i go to a catholic school, but only coz my mum went there. i'd like to continue the chain but my granny's from Kempsey

for a non-religious person you sure make religion sound almost reasonable lol

there is actually plenty of non-religious proof of the events Christianity is based on. There is Roman documention for the birth of a man known as Jesus bar Joseph of Nazareth, who went around annoying the conservative Jews, particularly the Pharisees, until they demanded Pontius Pilot crucified...

2000 words is nothing for extension english!!!

i've got a minimum of 2000 words to write for english left. i'm basically only coming to school for drama and my friends since the rest of the school day is getting so hard to sit through. at least today was "McAuley Day" at our school so instead of long tutor group they had bands playing in our...

i want to get into medicine too, so i looked on the university websites and spoke to the careers advisor. do not choose maths just for medicine, because that's not what they're looking for. if you're good at it and enjoy it then definately do it, but not just for medicine. all they want is a...

i could manage that for drama, SOR and bio, but english and chem will be a stretch :( if i get on top of my english then i shall go straight to my maths notes all weekend. damn, i was hoping to relax

our class was given a piece from Blackrock, Aftershocks, Spiders or Armadaeus (i probably spelt that last one wrong). The first three are Australian and the first two are female but you could easily change the references to yourself in Spiders. Aftershocks was slightly more challenging because...

how am i supposed to get a good enough ATAR for medicine with scores any lower than 90%? i find a lot of bio is common sense: Aus. has lots of bushfires, therefore the flora has adapted or died. easy. i used to be very religious before i went atheist and i had great religion teachers the last 12...
