    how many words is a 5 min speech

    Yeah, like Kimmeh said, it depends on the pace you speak. If you have the problem my friend has, which is speaking really fast because of nervousness, then I guess you should write more than exactly 5 mins when reciting at home.

    Procrastination Issues.....

    Yeah, I think everyone has some procrastination issue, some more affected than others (like me!!). I think procrastination is the easy way out of doing something that induces pain or unhappiness. Does anyone have any methods of getting over this issue?

    35 sleeping with 13

    what do you think when you hear of someone who's 35 sleeping with a 13 year old? the story of the teacher (then 35) sleeping with her student (then 13) is just so demoralising. she was married and had kids. i mean, she's old enough to be the guy's mother! i don't understand how someone who's...

    Are you going to any open days?

    I'll be there, dunno what i'll be wearing though. I'll have my hair up that day - as usual. Hm, i'll keep an eye out for glasses + nike shirt. LOL although i think there'll be heaps of people wearing nike shirts and some with glasses also. maybe there should be an area for BOS members...
