    18th birthday!!

    You want to get him something meaningful as well as something he'd actually like, right? So why don't you buy him something big that you know he wants but which isn't necessarily very couple-y, and then also make him a mix cd of all the songs that have some significance to your relationship...

    My boyfriend thinks I'm fat

    Uhhh....wouldn't that be 4 tits? I don't know, I could be wrong, I just always thought it was normal for girls to have 2 breasts each. Anyway, this boyfriend sounds like he has a serious problem with respecting you. If you don't feel like he accepts you the way you are then he's not worth...

    did you like the question for module b

    I liked it. Straightforward, but not so broad that students who studied couldn't be separated from those who didn't. Plus it gave you the freedom to approach it in your chosen way, as opposed to the AOS section 3 where just about everyone in the state is going to have produced the same essay.

    Evidence for New Kingdom Egypt (til death of Thut IV)

    There are WEBSITES for this stuff?! Wow. I would love those 2 on Ahmose son of Ebana and Speos Artemidos...

    2 hours, 3 essays

    I don't think that's 100% true....I agree that it's a shame that in the end everything comes down to learning how to pass an exam rather than learning for the sake of expanding our minds. But I DO think that yr 12 has been of huge value to me, and to many of my friends. Education isn't about...

    To the stooges who wrote more than 8 pages per question

    Myg0t, what is the point of this thread? Why don't you vent elsewhere.... No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to get beyond 8 pages in 40 minutes. That's not because I don't have any more to say, but because I just can't write any faster. Some people can - I wish I was one of them, but...

    What casestudy r ppl doing in class?

    We're doing Western Imperialism in the 19th century. Trust me, it's every bit as thrilling as it sounds. *ahem*.

    most annoying person in an exam room

    I can't stand how the supervisors don't seem to realise that yes, you do actually need EVERY MINUTE of your exam time. In AOS they read out the instructions too late so that they cut into our reading time, but then they didn't extend the reading time. When our already-cut-short reading time was...

    2004 Trials - Questions

    I'm not sure if this was a past HSC or not but just in case....(paraphrasing of course) Texts and Ways of Thinking: Texts in this module involve a resistance to the mainstream. Discuss how and why they do this. Postmodernism: Imagine you are the composer of one of your set texts. You...

    "Creative Responses"

    does anyone have a copy of a CSSA trial from any year? Or a trial from their school maybe?

    Trial Results

    i got 22/25 for the creative and 23/25 for the essay. 94% - I'm happy, but scared about HSC. Does anyone have a copy of the CSSA trial they can post, email or pm me? Pleeeease? Reps will abound.

    now im scared

    very true. the night before, I took myself a "break" at 4am, got 2 hours sleep and then got up at 6 to keep doing back-entries in my journal. I was still writing in my journal at 8.59 am.

    need help

    That's so selfish to put her in that position. It's just not right - if she was unhappy with her guy/more interested in you, she'd do something about it. Jago's right, leave her alone. You're just creating a situation that doesn't need to exist, and which could put a real strain on their...

    section two

    Did anyone else read the rubric after the exam finished and realise they hadn't really demonstrated their particular "understanding of the concept of the journey" but had just written a story which happened to involve going somewhere?

    4U English + Ext History?

    I did both ext hist and 4U english, plus art which was another major work. By far I found my extensions in english and history the most rewarding and the most challenging subjects I chose, and I'm so glad I did them because otherwise, like someone said, school would just have been one giant...

    most annoying person in an exam room

    I like people who finish early and then sit around looking bored and fiddling with their papers...it makes me feel reassured that at least I've got enough to say to fill in the whole time and that they musn't have written much.

    Module C- Speeches

    no wait, must needs be the saint (not hero) of the new age?

    Module C- Speeches

    Isn't it "The political criminal of today MUST NEEDS be the hero of the new age"?

    Module C - Elective 3: History and Memory

    The worst thing is....I can't remember what I wrote. Who knows, maybe I did say that? Actually, yeah, I did talk about blurring the lines, but I didn't specifically say this was the *purpose*. Trigger, thank you thank you thank you, you made me feel so much better! At least there's something...

    omg..how many of you guys finish ur exams with FULL bladders?!?!

    Exams do weird things to you. The HSC is like being pregnant...you get *cravings* and *urges*. Or is that just me? I was using a pen (not a certain pen, just a pen) to write my study notes. My brother wrecked the tip. But even though we have in excess of 4 million pens in the house, I needed...
