I'm retarded when it comes to comprehension. Seriously, I am capable of full marks in other sections, I wrote a Postmodern essay that got 25/25. I do Extension 2. Got freaking 10/15 in my trial. I did quite a bit of practice, but I still feel like I fucked it up.

A chick in a spaceship going to Mars. Yeah, I wish I was kidding, too.

I'm hoping for: Section 1: 12/13 Section 2: 15 Section 4: 14 so all up 41/45 ish would be nice. :cool: Usually I don't do so well, but I actually studied this time around. Shocking, I know.

My story was given 15++++/15 by my tutor for some reason. It's about a girl on a space shuttle to Mars. I'm not even joking. And it made my mum cry. Yep, I'm not sure either. So I'm hoping for a 15 in the exam? I would have thought that talking about space travel would be an ultimate...

Good luck, everyone... I'm sure you'll be far more dedicated to the subject than I was, hahaaha.

I don't think we ever get them back. We never find out why we got that 42 as opposed to a 47. We get our mark the 17th of December and that is all. Though nominations for the showcase come out next month. Even though I know I won't be in it, I'll still be upset when the letter doesn't...

Every year people say it, the newbies don't believe but, fuck... START IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I did mine in 3 weeks. I have huuuuge regrets. Also, trust your teachers, they know their shizzle. The big one for me was, don't get bogged down in all the conceptual ideas, how to relate it to...

Need 98.45+. Thus am aiming for that. If not would like over 95+. Aim high, all that jazz.

Not 18 till April. All my friends are already 18... /emo There's a girl in my year who's not 18 till next September...

Wayfarers are awesome, the end. I have my dad's pair from the 80s, which makes them 20 times cooler.

I spent a ridiculous amount on mine, $500... BUT, it's absolutely perfect and I'll definitely wear it again. Many times.

For the amount of effort I put in, I deserve a 30. Hoping for 45+ though. Meh, who am I kidding, I want a 50!

It's been a month and two days since that fateful day when we gave away our wonderful little projects... how do you feel about your work now? What have friends/family thought of it? Have you got any feedback? Is there anything you desperately wish you could change?

DON'T do 15 units if you're doing a language extension + english extension 2. Take it from me, both units are an incredible amount of work for the amount of marks they're worth, especially the latter. Don't put yourself through it! :uhhuh:

Best: Ros and Guil, Othello. My favourite is 1984, though. Worst: Romeo and Juliet, the French Lieutenant's Woman (couldn't even finish it) and Farenheit 451. Can't believe the Brian Caswell hate on the first page, I fracking love his books. :)

Ok, no idea what SS means so I'll just give my recommendations regardless. But I suggest you do 'The Neverending Story' directed by Wolfgang Petersen, works amazingly with Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Also, have you considered doing a picture book? They're easy to do and usually have a lot of...

I am all these things. So I would date me.

Yep. You can't just say what you are influenced by, you have to say how. For example, I said that Imaginative Journeys influenced me through Coleridge's poetry, which bring up the issues of... blah blah blah...

Title: Larklight: Author: Philip Reeve Genre: Steampunk/Humour/Young Adult Why you should read it: I picked it up and thought it looked like a kid's book, but it has so much more going on. Nobody I know has actually read it, though. It's set in an alternate Victorian universe where we...

This. Worst book I have ever tried to read. Reads like the crap I wrote as a budding 12 year old fantasy lover. Star Wars, now with dragons!
