I love horses but *sigh* I can't afford horse riding

My mind keeps wandering. I can't sit still for more than five minutes. Literally. At maximum, I sit for ten before I have to move again. Not just a shift. I mean like getting off my chair and just running around. Yes, I said RUNNING. Anyone else experiencing this funny condition?

If you get a really crap internal score while the rest of the grade gets good, and you absolutely kick butt in the external HSC, will you get a nice UAI? (ie 95+) Currently my school assessment marks are atrocious, and everyone else is loads better than me, but if I do extremely well in the...

How complex must the poetic techniques be? So far I've only identified imagery, symbolism, simile and metaphor as the techniques which have some sort of significance in his poems. The thing is, yeah, there's alliteration, rhythmn and all that, but what are you supposed to make out of it? I...

I seriously DO NOT understand conics. Is there a website with notes? can someone help me? I have a test coming up in 2 weeks and I'm so completely screwed because I don't get a single thing! Help!:eek:

Try to sell it. If I can't, then it's 'bye-bye and in the bin you go.'

Well, I really don't think swearing matters. There's a girl in my school whose BOW is titled 'perFUCKtion' and the teachers don't mind

Seeing as there's only about 4 months left before I hand in my BOW, my teacher's given up trying to change my concept, so now she keeps telling me to improve it and that it's too shallow. I just don't get it - how deep is a concept meant to be? My current one is something along the lines of...

Yeah, and end up with 10 units for my HSC, fat chance

Arrr, completely forgot to write my sleep and study hours - well, here they are: Study: 1-5hr weekday, 4hr+ weekend Sleep: 4-9hr depending on my assessments

There are supposedly 'senioirs only' areas, but teachers always kick us out and say 'I've booked this room for my class!'...So not much privileges there. I vent my anger and disappointment by yelling at the juniors....ah, so fun to see then run...

Some people in my school are so funny, they have competitions to see who gets the least sleep. So, just curious - how many hours of study and sleep do YOU get?

I really don't mind people above me, as long as they don't start gloating and showing off or running around screaming 'I"M GONNA FAIL I'M GONNA FAIL' while they are toppping the subject.

Right-o I just completely bombed my last exam worth 20%, and I'm currently REALLY at the bottom of my grade. So, if my ranking's really low and say in the HSC I get really good, then that good mark goes to someone else, right? So does that mean...I cannot get a band 6 anymore? And does a band 5...

My English tutor's ALWAYS away, off to a conferenece or a holiday or whatever. She's brilliant while she's there, but I can't contact her out of hours because she NEVER answers her emails, and as a result my last two assessments have gone haywire. Of course, it's my own fault I'm crap at...
