*waves at Weisy* *waves at flyin* Re vera, mea cara, nihil curo = "Frankly m'dear, I don't give a damn." Well that's the Pooolish translation *glances at Weisy* Geez, I haven't been in this forum for aaaaaaages =) nice to be back and see all these '03 ppl keeping the Latin spirit alive...

Re: Re: Re: ... Actually, I happen to be female :p

Re: ... We did good old Paterson and McNaughton, a little orange book written before WW1 for all those little Scottish schoolboys whose Latin teacher would cane them if they forgot how to decline "mensa"... we were one of the last grades in our school to use that book, I think our Latin...

Here's my attempt: Uh... arise, moon and star(s) (generalising singular?) I think I've been away from Latin for too long.

Re: Re: Salvete! *clears throat* Maybe I've been away from my Latin for too long... but shouldn't it be "salve"? :p Heh on the subject of Chinese... Weisy was trying to teach me some Mandarin, but all I can say is "my little chicken" (although my intonation is crap, so I could be...

I believe it's "I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries." Oh, don't get me started on quoting Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I never stop. Just ask Weisy! "Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for...

Now I'm floating back to the days when we didn't know what a second declension noun was... Where does the poet live? The poet lives in his country house. Why is the daughter adorning the table with roses? The farmer is hastening to his daughter's country house with spears. O! the queen is on...

freaking_out, your teacher sounds exactly like mine, are you sure we don't go to the same school?! My teacher insisted that you can only use the variable "index" as the subscript for an array! *shakes head in disbelief* You can do well at SDD as long as you know the syllabus bullet points...

*experiences intense Pat & Mac flashbacks* I thought it was "Ubi est toga mea?"

That happened for me in all my subs except English Advanced.

Hurrah, a trophy :) I've never had a trophy before! =) Add me to the list - I got 90+ for all 12 units - I was expecting low-to-mid-80's for software and high 80's for 2U English, so I was pretty surprised.

Yes, Weisy is the intellectual wondergirl of our school =) nothing is out of reach of her diverse talents!! I did 12 units, and Indonesian Continuers (94) wasn't counted for me. It wasn't my lowest mark, so I was surprised, I thought I would lose one unit of advanced English and one unit of Indo.

Yup, 99.90 =) Yeah, it was!! I only just noticed that MinAi, thanks!! Far out, I wasn't expecting that!!

Well done to everyone =) English Adv. - 92 English Ext. 1 - 48 Maths - 98 Maths Ext. 1 - 49 Latin - 96 SDD - 94 Indo (last year) - 94 My assessment mark for software got pushed up by 8 marks!! I found that really odd since I found the final exam much harder than any of the...

I got 99.90 - I was really stoked as it was much higher than I expected :) Well done everyone, you all seem to have done great!

I know Nicky was on here... at some stage...

I did Harwood, and my related texts were Sky High from the BOS booklet Regarding Henry (film) - Mike Nichol <--- this is terrific - has lots of film techniques to talk about Hither Dear Child (feature article) - Hugh Mackay Through a Glass Darkly (novel) - Jostein Gaarder I disagree...

I think you uncheck the "email notification" option when you're typing the post... and there's an unsubscribe link in the emails you get too.

Heh, Wedge... what is it with us and saying the same things at the same time today? :p

Hmmm... fairly straightforward... the first unseen was in one of the trial papers I did!! :D Yay!! I know I got one of the grammar ones wrong - I said "interea" was a conjunction, looked it up in the dictionary later and it said it was an adverb... whoops! Oh well... I don't really care that...
