    How many stayed???

    I stayed for an hour and 45 mins... How on earth are you meant to spend 40 mins doing the 20 multiple choice qtns that everyone figures out the answers to during reading time?

    the very last exam...

    Yeah... but I don't know what I have done to it (my left knee)... It kinda collapsed in the Hungry Jacks playground last year, and the day before I slipped on wet tiles at a friend's place and yeah... I just have to be really careful. The only thing I remember the doctor surgeon person saying is...

    Lame stories

    Well my story could have fitted into any of them, but I was leaning more towards the landscapes one. It was a reflection by the main character Melissa of how she moved from the vast desert plane to the concrete world of the city to be a photographer: people, places and random objects. And...

    Module C - Elective 2: Ways of Living

    Yeah... I did SeaChange for this one too... I wrote 10 pages... What did you use as your two related texts? I used *Looking for Alibrandi (Melinda Marchetta, Penguin Books, 1992) and *The Princess Diaries (Disney, 2002)

    the very last exam...

    I used Looking for Alibrandi today as a related text... There is carpet in our exam centre too... I think I will be running out of the place (so I can stuff my knee again and be in pain and have a swollen knee for the formal and not be able to wear my shoes....)

    Whew, that was a rush ^_^

    My favourate excerpt was the The Idea of North one (the third one - the accapella ensemble)... It is a great piece, especially when you see it performed live! We had done that one in class in year 11... most of us six recognised it, and so enjoyed it. :) Yeah.

    sleeping tonight

    Not true... I got a misadventure in the SC after I sat the exam... Just tell your presiding officer that you are intending on applying for a m/a BEFORE the exam starts: they have to keep an eye on you and take notes about how your acting and stuff so they can give an accurate report... more...

    sleeping tonight

    Do the exam, and then go for the misadventure... because if your Dr. says that you could have/should have done it and so won't give you the misadventure, and you didn't do the exam, your seriously up the creek without a paddle...

    who's up for teaching

    For me, h/s teaching would hell on earth. Sure, pri teachers have to do a LOT of prep work and have to teach every subject, but to me that isn't as chaotic and hellish as having to face h/s students every period... In pri school kids are still finding their niche`... h/s they have found it...

    English ruins the HSC experience

    English should be taught as an Arts subject rather than a compulsary one... Cos I suppose for some people it is an art form...
