    dissonance... I suppose it doesn't really matter if you read this tomorrow before or after, but good luck for your performance! You deserve to do well. :) (even considering you just hit things.) :P Our year 12s had theirs today. I remember when I did mine, I was on at 8:25am or...

    finished the course??

    Yes, we finished the course early because we're the 4unit class and we had other things to do, like mechanics *cringe* Still, there's quite a lot of content in both the 3 and 4 unit courses.

    Asamatopes -> 3U graphes....

    teachers are usually good at explaining such things... otherwise most textbooks (cambridge, fitz, MIF) have a 'curve sketching menu' which tells you exaclty how to sketch such graphs

    who is absolutely sick of english?

    Just for good measure, what's all this talk about the real world? We all seem to talk about maths and english and their irrelevance to the REAL world - but what sort of real world is there out there? Is the world not full of people like us, who similarly have the ability to think, and...

    How many 4unit students at your school?

    I go to MLC and we started off with about 14, which was like a record, and gradually, we got killed off. Now we're down to about 8... I say about 8 because there are supposedly 8 people in our class but due to the *ahem* natural brilliance of some class members I have never seen all 8 of us...

    King Lear

    :o *pokes milly back* I did alternaTIVE just for you... why does everyone think I use subconscious irony? I think we could all use a little of michellopi's very sound advice. It is sometimes very easy to forget to consider the whole picture when asked to critically study a text...

    Passions

    I swear, that show MUST be a parody of something... It can't be so bad in its own right... B&B? Any takers?

    Good News?

    Hey Mil, and everyone else who does software I found this in the Board Update, Sept. 2002. Read and tell me what you think. ;) Love, Weisy 2001 HSC Courses With Relatively Low Performance in Bands 5/6 In a standards-referenced system there is no reason why the percentages of...

    King Lear

    and furthermore... tagtailing Mil's brilliant explanation... you would then look at the fact that traditional and family drama interpretations view Edmond, Goneril and Regan's actions differently, and find different ways of bringing these views out in performance. eg. - a family drama...

    Schoolies

    not going... but possibly going overseas...which i think is a fair tradeoff, considering I don't have an overwhelming desire to live with my friends, stoned for a week

    Gilmore Girls

    it's a very good show for escapism... and god knows we need that at the moment

    Crime Fiction Essay

    Probably a good idea to consider three different types of questions. I tend to go for 1) questions pretty much asking you to regurgitate crime conventions and say how they are subverted to adjust to the society they are portraying/have been composed in (I actually have seen only a couple of...

    As a latin scholar... I think I must be of the mad/disturbed variety. Why not, I say? Weisy

    Interested in who actually does Latin out there...

    medea... did you do latin for your HSC? what did you think of the texts? This year we're doing Cicero In Cat. I instead of Pro Roscio. We're still doing Aeneid II though... "Illiud Latine dici non potest" You can't say that in Latin "Audio, video, disco" I hear, I see, I learn...

    Stupid Question Corner

    The HSC Latin course is called a 'Continuers" course, ie. it is for people who have done Latin through Stage 5 ie. (years 7-10). I'm fairly certain no Latin Beginners Course exists which is like Japanese beginners course. If you haven't done it before, I'm not sure you can, although i might...

    just curious

    i understand that - it does sound simple, and in a way it makes you look at your own composition in a different way, and it seems all at once to be both more simple and more complicated at the same time. Paul Stanhope is my composition teacher...or was, I suppose. He taught me for about two...

    just curious

    petite I wouldn't be able to choose, really. If I tried to think about it now, I would probably find a piece, then realise that I hadn't taken into consideration about three million other pieces I liked. At the moment I'm loving Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody no.2 in C#min, because I'm working on...
