The pill's good for a while - "yay! we can be spontaneous!!! And it feels better"....but then the pounds start piling on. This doesn't happen for everyone, but we all react differently. Just depends on whether you'd rather be fat or experience a little less fun.

ummm....no? I am seriously dying here.

Ok, I'm having a panic attack thinking that I have totally stuffed up the q on history and memory. In the exam I thought I was doing really well, I wrote heaps (for me) on the relationship between history and memory, I kept up the speech form and involved the audience, I critically discussed the...

So depressed. And at the time I thought this was my best section.

OOOOOOOOOOOh my god. I just re read the question. I didn't talk about WHY composers do blah blah.....AAAARRRRGGHH!

sorry a, nope, scanner has strangely disappeared from the desk??? Anyway, if it's the question you're after, not my actual essay, it was something along the lines of: 'How has context shaped the representations in these texts? How has your study of each text influenced your understanding of the...

One more thing...I think the reception in different contexts is more something they just want you to be aware of. I don't think they'd ever expect you to hypothesise about how each of the speeches *might* have been recieved in different contexts. Rather, they want you to be awareof the fact that...

For 'different readings of the speeches', is that essentially to do with their reception in different contexts, or is it more about the different ways the speeches can be interpreted? I've never even heard this phrase when talking about this module! Gaah! Oh and also...I would think that...

My tip: don't study so much for english. You'll get into the exam with a huuuuge bank of knowledge which you'll feel is all really important, and then only get to talk about 2 insignificant points in the exam. You'll try and shove in piles of unrelated material just because you know it, and then...

I *was* freaking out about that question too....Laz, my fears are successfully allayed. Thankyou!!!

oh and whoever did that ridiculous fantasy post about the ancient teacher on the advice line? They're old men this year. Very nice ones too...but kinda makes me wonder about your sexual preference?

To answer your question matt f64, I'm not sure about tutankamun but generally the ancient egyptians preferred stand-up doggystyle. I'm serious, one of our set texts (by Joyce Tyldesley) looks critically at the sexual graffiti of ancient egypt and analyses the frequency of sexual positions. I...

nothing in EE2 prepares you to write under such harsh conditions - timed, no preparation, usually with a stimulus. EE2 is totally different, it's a research task which you stew over for months and have plenty of time to perfect *coughs*. I usually do pretty well in the creative writing, but...

Oh come on....nobody? *gemita suddenly feels very lost and alone* Welshi? Surely you've seen it?! Anybody? :confused:

Does anyone have any past trials or questions for this elective?

Is anyone else doing this? What are you guys focusing on in your study? eg personal memory/collective memory? history of ned kelly/opinions?

thankx noseintheclouds! I think I'll just stick with Kelly texts then, to be on the safe side.

oh, but - but...but....gaah. *sighs and gives up*. Well, *I* thought it was hard. So there. :p

I agree...it was terrible. I thought the essay q was soooo bland and broad that it didn't really give you anything specific enough to grapple with and hone in on. I had all this really detailed stuff but couldn't use it because I had to do the whole broad overview thing. It didn't give you a...

how do you write so much! No matter how much I push myself, I simply cannot fit that many pages into 40 minutes...
