love it marquelle. i love the "you mean you must defecate?" thing and emotional guitar.

i loved the pope's contraceptive message and the crazy piano and all those wild screams...
and bra-burning garduation and the "boing" sound effect.

haha - simon says is best ending
crazy piano = awesome

I'm still reading it and the more i do, the more i love it!
I love the way you've set this out. My favourites are call the dictionary! plasticity has a new meaning, retail therapy: a recognised practice, because you can’t eat endorphins, buy - i just keep writing more as i read them. Ah and pop memorabilia, paparazzinazi, your children and your children's children. I just love them all - you'd better get a fantastic mark! haha
Somehow I missed this earlier.

Thankyou so much for your awesome feedback. I really hope I do well, the amount of hours that went into that thing...gah!

I did EX2 but I'm a bit hesitant to post mine up. I just know someone will find some horrific spelling mistake. I'm usually just a lurker on here...

BUT, from reading some of the other compositions I reckon there's going to be a few E4s.

I read one of the poetry works; "quick fix, cheap thrill". I was a little indifferent at first but the diction and word choice was pretty wonderful. The author definitely has a very good economy of words.
eg:

"It’s funny when the word ‘buy’ / fits comfortably in your mouth. / Sits just right.

All round good job I think.

I might go and read a few more...

On another note, 30 views and no comments??
That's never reassuring...

I'm a tad hesitant as well.
I refuse to reread mine incase i freak out about a massive mistake i know would be there.

at least it's one unit completely finished now right?

Just read your RS, it's pretty decent and account of your research/links with EE1 is good. It's minor but I would've moved a few commas around lol. I really like your last paragraph though! If for some reason they don't like it (though it's not as bad as that..), I reckon the last sentence is enough for them to think it's wonderful! =]

thanks, i'd like to know what someone thinks...

sorry accio.brain i thought i posted about yours last night lols i ended up putting it on facebook lols

i really your piece, especially the opening, its structure was really good and i liked how the dialogue flowed it seemed naturally but philospohical (if you get what i mean). Overall i think its a really strong piece, you should do well
