My fave book is Life of Pi by Yann Martel. Read it!! It's a beautiful, ugly, sad, realistic fantasy (could go on but would sound like a wanker!). One of those books you are sad about when it ends because you want it to go forever, even tho the ending (and in fact the whole story) is thoroughly...

I really think it depends on where you think you will fit in best and what you think is best for (it really is a personal decision). I think UOW provides the best learning environment for me because i tend to be laid back, while others may feel the structure of UTS (or whatever) may suit them...

PRIVATE SCHOOLS SHOULD EITHER GET NO FUNDING FROM THE GOVERNMENT OR BE ABOLISHED. WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO EQUALITY = EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Public schools and universities need the money a whole lot more than private schools. This wonderful government obviously has no...

The point i'm trying to make is that the crocodile, like all animals, was unpredictable. A human cannot always know what said croc is going to do, even though the handler has grown up with wild animals his whole life. No one denies Irwin is a croc expert (among other things). He went about...

No matter what anyone says, that croc and the other animals in Irwin's zoo are WILD animals. Their natural instincts to hunt will always be there - even if born in captivity. Even a lot of common pet dogs are dangerous to have around children the age of Irwin's. What that embarrassment to...

In that case, my dream job would be Agent Z's mistress. My second would be a professional shopper (with Agent Z's money) and third i'd have to say... food critic - you get to eat AND be a fucking bitch at the same time!!! Oh and physio for the Penrith Panthers would also appeal, for some...

I really think that they should be paying you, especially since you're working long hours. I would understand if you were training for one shift, but they're getting slave labour from you at the moment and that sucks. If i was in your position and you can afford it i'd tell them to shove their...

Hey Man Bitch!!!! (Mike85) Its Rachel. You must be bored too!!!

I think you might mean GOUGH. He is not a rebellious teen who wears too much black eye makeup, black clothes and hates the world. Oh yeah, back to the important stuff: I would put Latham in as PRESIDENT any day over most of Australia's politicians. He obviously is in touch with the average...

I got 81.25 and i really happy with what i got and its about what i expected. It seems like most people here did really well and we should be pleased with our efforts. For the people who didn't get what they expected but still did really well, after the disappointment wears off, you really...

All of the exams are criteria marked. This is so that the marking is kept to a certain standard. A few of my teacers who have marked the new and old HSC have said the the critera are argued about extensively until the markers are happy that it is a fair assessment of each student's exam (well...

My philosophy is that you shouldn't worry and stress about things you can't control. You did your best and everybody understands that the exams make most people tired and stressed. This is NOT a life or death situation!!!!!

At my school there was a pretty even mix of people who did 4 and 9, i did 8.

I wish the exam was harder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bad scaling. Bio can be a challenging subject when you think about all the stuff we are 'offically' required to know. I agree with all the people who said that most of the questions were too airy-fairy. If i wanted to talk shit i would do my ext...

I was told that bio has been made harder... I don't see how they could make it any easier!!!
