Another Cotton On noobie jumping in here... I suspect its not going to be fantabulous but hey, cash is cash, and clothes is clothes, and I like clothes. Induction took friggin ages though, although I guess they all do. And I dressed in red and white for it, and they gave us these bags for our...

God, I did too much technique and not enough theory, because thats how we'd get marked well internally but looking back it was a dumb-ass idea. Creative was pretty average, not as detailed as I'd hoped because I was kinda stuck for time after wasting so much in section one. I'm hoping 30/45...

That section was majorly retarculous. <10 for suuure. I didn't like any of those stupid texts, rargh. How much does everyone write for that? I filled 5 pages for it, I think. Last question I used texts 2 and 3, as I'm assuming everyone did, and yeah I had to get all bullshitty about text 3 :(

Wrote I think 5.5 pages... god, I wasnt expecting the lines to be so massive though, threw me off :( and I used the 3rd quote, fit pretty well with the story I had planned except I messed the ending a bit and it wasn't as hard-hitting as it was in the planned version. Argh. Oh wells. Same one I...

I'm just here to vent. MAJOR STRESS I am so not prepared. Studying begins 10am tomorrow. I've given up aiming for the 90's.

We get the traditional school hall gig in the morning, then we get the rest of the day off and a dinner with the teachers at night at St George Leagues Club. Should be alright :D

I've pretty much put it out of mind, so I don't go crazy and find (even more) things I should have fixed before sending it in D: but I do miss working on it, and I miss my journal dearly.

omg flash drive wut, i only got myself 5 free pens. and bags, i like the bags. esp the adfa one :D my friend had been going around trying to get a shirt but nobody would let her have one, she'd be very jealous of you

heh i'm not a artard But seriously, these are coolies :D thanks mang, and I'm bumping this to second the stickying motion.

I'm bumping this thread, a bit late-ish I suppose, but say if you got 82% raw mark in an exam like that in the HSC, is that good or bad? Cause I know I could have done better but I'm wondering how much I should be busting my hiney :D

Aaaah I love it :D ETA: OK, after reading through my ridiculous story a few times I've decided to put it up, let me make some excuses first though: I probably should have done a CR, its the type of writing-ness I'm better at, but I'd never actually stuck through with a short story till the...

I've downloaded and had a quick squiz (do people still say that?) of the ones already posted, and they seem uber coolies, can't wait to have a proper read after trials are done. You guys really know what you're on about :) and I quite liked City Of Dreams, never heard of gonzo journalism but I...

Jesus H. Christ. I salute your effort, my friend. I didn't even bother faking dates, and I put little shiny star stickers over all the swear words cause my teacher had been quite horrified. Mine ended up being a 300-pg binder with plastic sleeves, filled all the way :)

Hahah just as well, I couldn't be bothered to change it in the end, cause I quite liked how the little epigraph thingie worked at the start of my reflection statement. What was the original title of your work?

I had a history exam... and I hadn't studied so I had like half an hour free at the end of it when I ran out of things to say. Wish I'd thought of going to sleep :D I only need two words: F**king FINALLY! or maybe, BURN IT

Wow, I didn't even do one. I was meant to for the report and the teacher forgot, so it's not in my journal, and I'm not wasting any more friggin time on it, oh well.

I wish I'd had the balls to pull off a proper transgressive fiction-type-thing with my work, it is influenced by it a bit but I'd have given my English teacher a heart attack :D

Internal: 43.5/50, 1st/3. External: quite frankly I'd be happy to see a thirty-something mark, considering what a dodgy job I've done. I'd be cut if it was under 35 but I'm preparing myself for it. 40-something would be nice too :) crossing my fingers. ETA: Seriously, what the Christ. This...

Wow. Can't believe I made it. (Well, almost, still gotta do the RS, knock on wood and all that). What an epic journey (snort snort). Nah seriously though, I feel like I've changed a lot since the start of it, i.e. gave up on my fleeting romance with nihilism as a guiding philosophy. Kicked it to...

I was about to call mine Walls, well it's on a list of many things I might pick from at the last minute if I'm gutsy enough to change this late. But then I thought perhaps Walling would be better. Getting to the actual point of my post, I often wonder, d'you reckon they get a lot of MWs with...
