    Historians!?

    The Chapelle Rouge is part of Hatshepsut's building programme at the Amun complex at Karnak. Just another wall for her to scribble away on, really :)

    Post Exam Anxiety

    Grrr, everybody says "just don't think about it". Obviously if I had some way to switch my brain off post-exam-autopsy mode I would, but I just CAN'T! It gets me every time, I walk out all fine and happy and then I think about what I wrote and I think about the question and what I could have...

    Getting Our HSC Results

    Isn't it the 17th for the results and 18th for UAI? I'm pretty sure that's what it says in the UAC book. I'll be getting mine via sms to save freaking out over slow net connection, but I still think it would be cool to get them posted...imagine opening the envelope. So much ncier than just...

    predict the key feature...

    So basically, taking into account all the varied responses on this page....I'm predicting that you can safely bet it will be something probably from the modern history syllabus, probably not to do with the Christmas truce. :) Good luck to you all.

    How many pages did you write?

    Me too...I have the same number of exams next week as I have had in the last 2 weeks put together...actually more in terms of hours. Scary!

    Module B - Elective 2: Postmodernism (Essay)

    Indeed. Guess that leaves me with the middle east, Orlando style. Or maybe I'll take South and Central America.

    Historians!?

    Ok, you can't get a band 6 unless you specifically refer to sources, but remember that this doesn't just mean spouting off a few quotes. You do have to have quotes, but referring to primary sources is just as important - so when you mention the Speos Artemidos temple and Deir el-Bahri for...

    who swore in their responses?

    I think welshi did....as long as it was necessary (or at least not unecessary) then you're fine.

    Module B - Elective 2: Postmodernism (Essay)

    Maybe it's just our class sam....I loved it.

    ArtXpress Selection pool

    How can you guys be nominated already? Ours haven't even been marked yet, I know cos my teacher rang me to say they were being marked next week and could she move my artwork to another room. Congrats though to everyone who's been selected!

    studying for NK -> death Th IV

    Yeah I'm focusing on this section the least. I've broken it down to: -Expansion of the empire -Hyksos -Warrior pharaoh image -Rise of Amun -Building programmes -Religion Obviously these all overlap but they're basically the areas that can be addressed in this section (post if I forgot...

    How long before you have sex?

    Well it's not like there's a set period of time. Those people saying three months are weird. Is it going to be inappropriate to have sex at 2 months and 30 days, but ok the next day? It's all relative, depends on what the context is. If 2 people are in love, feel prepared and know each other...

    Leaving ur loved ones behind...?

    Pomo essay panic

    Yep, lots of close reference to my texts....so hopefully it's all good.

    What order, eh?

    essay first (I spent an hour and 15 mins on it and cut myself off so my poor little creative suffered at the hands of the clock.)

    Texts To Use Instead of Pamela Bradley

    ...or you can be lazy like me and just get the quotes Bradley cites and pretend you got them out of their original context. :)

    Module B - Creative Writing

    Ah, if only I could put that into practise. I'm the one who gets home, re-reads the question 5 times until I can convince myself that I didn't answer it, then stresses out for the next 2 months until we get our results. I'm a postmortem-er. And a postmodern-er. Maybe they equate to the same...

    Module B - Elective 2: Postmodernism (Essay)

    Yeah, I think it was the best, most valuable, and most interesting thing I learned in my entire high school life. I love it, I'm thinking maybe I'll do english at uni just so I can do pomo again.

    Who ran out of time??

    I needed more time...I left Chaucer till last since it was the easiest, but still that didn't change the fact that 25 minutes is NOT enough to write a decent essay in. I zoomed through 5 pages of brief as possible points and then quickly concluded. I want special provisions cos....I like to...

    Pomo essay panic

    Hmmm. I'm not sure if I've done the right thing. I talked about the way postmodern texts challenge traditional representations of gender, time, language, and structure. But I'm not sure if I talked about the NATURE of representation? Actually yeah I think I did. It's so hard to remember what I said.
