Sooooo how are we all going? Still formulating an idea? Rocking ahead with 50 billion poems done? Slowly contemplating suicide? Share!

I'm SO happy, I have finally gone from my idea bout nationalism to a core idea surrounding human escapism (so exploring stuff like our need to destroy, own/posess/money, sex, drugs/alcohol, religion etc.) I have written 600 words.

How you all doin' !>?!?!?!

Human escapism sounds great! I've always liked the fantastical ideas offered up by relevant texts on imagination, speculation and inspiration (aarrgh journeys! :eek: )

i was going to do poetry but i bailed and started doing a play script instead. poetry's fun, but it's kinda hit and miss. good luck to you all, though.

"I would love 95+ more than anything

Nothing will come of nothing!!"

what if you were falling from a bridge over a 200 m ravine? wouldnt a bungee cord be a little better? (the HSC is not the most important thing in life)

Just trying to make sense of how I should have been approaching the major work, I found myself using poetry more for self expression than anything i thought I would. I have no idea what they are looking for when they are marking, no one in my school has done poetry in quite a long time. I've written maybe 2000 words, am refining and revisting as well as developing more technical aspects of what I can do.

:uhoh:
