the trench metaphor - quite a vivid one, but it would have been better to make a few mentions rather than have an ongoing thing - you'd have to meld it really well to ensure max impact. and you mentioned sports illustrated a few times too - starting to think you were getting didactic on me :p...

arts languages though! chepas? any generalised info...do you know if they take EAS kiddies because I think I'm going to need it.

30 people? Alright, that is so coming off my list of preferences :( Is it difficult to maintain a credit major?

guang lang you mean? oh I forget the words '...xiang tong hua gu shi li/zhang kai shuang shou, bian cheng chi bang bao hu ni/ni yao xiang xin, xiang xin wo men hui xiang tong hua gu shi li/xing fu he kuai le shi jie ju...' too bad we live in da real world huh :/

Airness: (I am aware that I do not have status in this forum, so don't kick me for intruding into your private little circle. Please, I'm very delicate) I like your concept. Very clever. One criticism I would like to make is that the work is rather repetitive in places, and while a certain...

nah. well, if I don't make my preferred courses I would probably become an english/history teacher but it's not something that I see me doing, really. You know, I wrote a few pages of the epilogue to my major work about - oh, last week. I was wondering, what's going to happen to these...

ohhh did she now. Owen though, weird name. I thought she was cool when I was about 14.

Oh hell yeah. My teacher mentioned this morning in English that the poverty in the Southern states is really highlighted by Katrina - and we're doing Luther King in speeches - I mean in the media you see pictures of poor black people crying, sprawled out on the ground...'Georgia, Alabama...'...

liberal studies. arts (advanced) or (languages) oh I don't know, law is cool. go for it. actually, don't, I don't need any more competition than I've already got.

Happy birthday Tactic. you look a bit like Mack. :p

you mean we're not? :(:( It's terrible, but America has the infrastructure to recover from it. I save my greater pity for the natural disasters that claim lives and houses in third world countries.

OK 11, maybe, but FIVE? how can you get pregnant when you're five. it's not biologically possible. Western society is very sexed up, 'tis the way it is...in yr 7 there were kids having sex.

It's a convention of the genre argo. Rowling mentioned it herself in the Emerson/Melissa interview thing. The mentor has to die, so that the hero can go on his journey alone, and generally be a hero. It's like in crime fiction where the detective solves the crime and there's a big...

no rowling said that harry has not had the sexual experience most other guys his age would have had because he has been through so much. And it's understandable really, though I wonder why the others don't get any. Plus, remember, she is writing for seven year olds...parents read the book to...

oh right, how much does it cost to stay?

I thought she overdid it a little as well. I doubt she would have gotten so het up had it had been just some guy, not Brogden

give me a description, what is a child molestor supposed to look like? skinny dude in suit + glasses?

right, your mind works in lovely ways what did you think when you saw the Bali 9 and Schappelle go in?

I think they'd sort of like the conversation to skirt away from the topic when it's mentioned I dunno if I meet one I'll ask her, just for you. :rolleyes:

Oh wowies thank you so much for telling me that I NEVER WOULD HAVE KNOWN WITHOUT YOU *rolls eyes I don't think even the mail order brides would like to be called that. It's like calling a black American a Negro. Song by Radio Vago called Mail Order Bride though
