    Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2004

    no it does, its quite sad in the normal eurovision how most people sing in English instead of their native language. the Romanian kid was way funny, but the hosts...no one can go past the hosts in terms of the cringe factor. What is it with the people that host Eurovision!?

    ==Jamie=Cullum==

    All of them are really really good, got all their albums except for Harry Connick Jnr (thats not to say I dont like his work). I had no idea he was half burmese til Ch7 televised his concert at the Blenheim Palace, but they cut bits out, so it doesnt compare to the DVD (must get it), or the real...

    the Motorcycle Diaries

    I swear that guy from Y tu mama tambien who plays Ernesto 'che' Guevara is a splitting image of Freddie Prinze Jnr (whether or not anyone will remember that guy is a totally different matter, think back to all those late 90's teen movies). Anyone? I'll simply re-iterate what everyone else has...

    The Amazing Race

    Omg i cant believe i only found this oh- so conspicuous thread now Who's had a sneak peak at series 6? I've been tempted to check out the CBS site but am restraining myself . Who taped the whole series? I only started when they went to the Philippines, but I've taped all of series 1 - 3 and...

    School friends vs. Uni friends

    Okay, yes Im still in HS but i feel compelled to two add my two cents at this ungodly hour... All this about High School vs uni friends has been quite interesting really. I'm about to start Year 12 and I have my close friends (who erm, coincidentally form my 'clique'), but there are certain...

    Sydney versus UNSW - whats the difference?

    Okay I know UNSW Law is more hands on, social justice, save the world with Law thing, and it seems to me Sydney is 'sit down, read and analyse' style. Is this accurate? What does Sydney Uni Law focus on? How do their teaching methods differ from UNSW?

    School / Subject

    !!!! Where's the school spirit?!?! For shame....for shame.... (I am obliged to do this after all) Obviously I go to Sydney Tech (does that make me a Sydney Technician?).

    Geography is the most bludgy subject

    Asquithian is right Asquithian is right - Geography isn't a bludgy subject, there is a lot of content to learn, but the more work you do, the easier it gets. That said, I have so much fun in class, with 8 other great people (and a fruit cake of a teacher included).

    Anyone regret their subject selections

    French! I regret not doing French, I think I should've done French as opposed to Modern History (I enjoy Geo and VA too much now to have dropped them)...

    10 Units or more for Year 12? What are you doing?

    I wasn't necessarily asking for advice Estel, just interested to see what other people's opinions were on the whole 10u/12u issue. At the end of this year, I'll end up with 11 units (I do 1U Psychology, which is prelim. only), and I'd love to pick up Ext 2 English but whether I should bother or...

    10 Units or more for Year 12? What are you doing?

    So who's doing the straight 10 units or overloading? What's better - to do less units but have more time to do work, or to do more units and have a 'safety net'? I wouldn't mind dropping down to 10 but I couldn't think of dropping any of my subjects (except for Modern History, where my...

    Who does French - or couldn't form a class for it?

    Okay, I don't do French myself, but I was just curious as to what Senior French is like for those who are doing it? What is the workload like (I still have this percetion its pretty light because there aren't any essays or research projects)? Do you have any regrets? My regret is that I...

    School / Subject

    Snobbery! I reiterate your cries of Selective School snobbery! How could they NOT put Sydney Tech (or Fort Street or any of the other schools) for that matter (to state the bleeding obvious, I go to Sydney Tech). Ah well.

    Beating the James Ruseans

    Is there anyone here who actually goes to James Ruse and can confirm or quench the myths everyone else has about them? Is every James Rusean? Do James Ruseans ever get out? I'm perfectly happy where I am at Tech, coupled with the fact I people would kill me rather than let me go to James Ruse...

    Is 14 units too much for the HSC?

    Wow! I'm just amazed that you were even allowed to do 14 units! In all honesty, how do you actually manage? Do you skip some classes and go to others &/or do you go to class during lunch, before and after school? It did occcur to me but I didn't realies doing more than 12 units was possible. I...
