    i am screwed!

    Honestly, I'm not being modest. I had a habit of typing except instead of accept (and vice versa), and when I handed it in I had "except" instead of "accept".... and also parts of it were quite cliche for a Sci-Fi story... anyways I'm gonna put it up on my site pretty soon, I'll tell ya when I do...

    i am screwed!

    for the assessments I didn't go that great. I only got 40/50. I was going well up until the last few assessments which weren't that great because of my lack of work...:o I did a sci-fi story, I'll post it up one day. But my hard drive was wiped a while ago, and the only digital copy I have...

    i am screwed!

    Hi all... I was in year 12 last year and I did 4u english. My major work was finished, printed and bound on the day it was due :) In fact a week before the due date, I was still only about 3000 words into my story... In the end I got 46/50 for my major work. The moral? Leave it...

    Favourite Movies.

    Hey, do you know if the DVD where you can watch it backwards is available in Australia.... cos I've seen the normal DVD, that has absolutely no special features... and I've heard theres another version, but I can't ever find it. So is the backwards stuff on the normal one, or is it one a...

    Favourite Movies.

    It looked pretty damn cool. But it seemed really cold and impersonal. They looked human, and acted human, but just didn't feel human for some reason. I didn't see why they couldn't just have made it the whole movie live action.

    sigur ros anyone?

    Sigur Ros are a Post-/Orchestral/Space Rock band from Iceland. They sing in a made up language called "Hopelandish" based on Icelandish. They create beautiful soundscapes with explosive climaxes.... and are currently quite popular, if still somewhat unknown. They have released three albums Von...

    Music

    Thanx! :o I personally don't rate those retro rock bands, well from what I've heard anyways, just seems like repeating stuff thats already been done before. I've only heard bits from The Strokes, The Vines, The Libertines and The White Stripes, some of it was alright, and "Get Free" is...

    EASY guitar tabs!

    Here's a whole bunch of Smashing Pumpkins tabs, there should be a good version of today and disarm in there somewhere. http://www.tabcrawler.com/archive.php?action=filelist&artist_id=5286

    EASY guitar tabs!

    If you know how to play power chords then Today should be simple (there's also that cutsey riff at the beginning which is easy and fun to play), and if you know the basic open string chords then disarm shouldn't be too hard either. It's just a shame you don't have an electric, that way you...

    EASY guitar tabs!

    www.tabcrawler.com is also good for Tabs. As for beginner tabs, nothings easier and more recognisable than Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit", theres only two simple riffs to learn and simple solo. "Disarm" and "Today" by the Smashing Pumpkins would also be and good and simple songs to...

    Favourite Radio Staion

    Triple J definitely, can't believe you didn't put that on your list! It has the best variety, and caters for almost any taste (in terms of pop music anyways). Which other radio(edit: I have this strange habit of typing "radiohead" instead of radio :rolleyes:) station has a death metal show...

    Any Radiohead fans here?

    I recommend Geogaddi, it's the only one I got, but its was one of my favourite albums last year. Ok Computer is my favourite closely followed by Kid A, The Bends and Amnesiac are about equal and Pablo Honey I don't really consider a Radiohead album. I wouldn't say Radiohead influenced...

    Any Radiohead fans here?

    I only just got into them. I downloaded and burnt "Mezzanine" great stuff, favourite tracks so far, Angel, Teardrop, Black Milk and Group Four... but most of the albums good... When are they coming?
