I live in an area in which a large Lebanese community resides. Apart from the odd dickhead (which I've found in every nationalilty I'm exposed to, especially my own), they've all expressed to me the anger they feel towards the extremist minority, and have spent many a lunch time explaining to me...

Maybe. Or maybe they, like much of the population, are narrow minded and falling prey to right wing bs? Despise what you want. It is utterly unfair to judge a group of people based on the actions of a select few. End of story. It's not no Islam = no terrorists. It's no terrorists = no...

I'd just like to say that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. A person that "despises" Islam and anyone that follows it is no better than the "terrorists". Islam does not tell people to wage a war on the Western world. Extremists could care less about Islam; they twist and pick and choose...

There are four main characteristics of Pop Culture (according to the syllabus): -Spread from a local to a national to a global level -Is commercial -Allows widespread access -Is constantly changing and evolving As far as the question goes I saw it and quickly skipped to part b) which...

Eeeee, I just got my Macleay info package in the mail, and the Dip Journalism and then Bachelor of Arts sounds perfect, especially since you can do the Bachelor of Arts in Sydney! I thought the whole Southern Cross thing equalled a long distance for me. I'm sending my application in the next...

Offs: -Smoking/Drug habit -Arrogance -Bad grooming (They don't have to be completely metro but some consideration is nice) Ons: -Easy to talk to, makes me laugh (which really isn't hard :D) -Caring -Nice smile/Eyes/Sexy voice

Thanketh mucheth. I pray I either didn't do as bad as I think or someone in my class kicks my ass in the exam.

Mmmm this may be stupid but... In one of my subjects, I'm ranked first with an assesment mark of around 90. The person ranked 2nd has an assesment mark of about 75-80. I had a bad exam where I stuffed up a 12 mark question. So, if I get 75 in the exam and no one else in the class beats...

After a brief mention of how he joined the Nazi party, I went with architecture (Nuremberg, new Berlin and Reich building in particular) > Minister of Armaments (with a brief explanation of his organisational skillis) > and closed with Nuremberg Trials, Spandau and his novels and work on the...

It was what technique would you use to predict the future of the country you studied (something along those lines anyway). I didn't think it was that bad at first, but apparently you should only use the techniques in the syllabus. Since I knew none, I went with exploring how the evolutionary...

I'm SO mad at myself because I completely stuffed the Continuity and Change question, and the fact that it was my final exam means I'll be thinking about it until I get my results back. The future trends thing was something we'd never discussed, and considering all my past S&C exams stuck to the...

The thing with this question IMO is that you could concievably use any S&C technique to predict the future. I went on a totally different path because although we had explored the future of Vietnam, we hadn't ever studied techniques. So I said that considering social theories outline how...

At the end of my exam there were 3 people left out of 12 lol. I'm SO mad at myself for screwing that Vietnam question. Do you still think they'll still award marks for predicting the future, despite someone using the wrong technique? I also said that by looking at past we can predict the...

Mmm I went with >> 1948 war, nationalisation of Suez Canal, Six Day War and Yom Kippur, incorporating the Arab League and terrorism that caused a rift amongst Arab states (like Black Spetember). It was basically centred around how Israel had become a common cause for them, and they continually...

I did Work and Leisure (a) and Popular Culture (b). I feel like I did strongly on those buuutt...the Continuity and Change questions bowled me for six. I had NO idea about techniques, so I said by closely following how a theory of social change has effected a society, we can determine how it...

I know of at least one other girl in my class that didn't indicate either. I figure, considering your booklets come from the same centre and we all did the same essay question...you must do the same elective in both parts so it'll be pretty obvious won't it? Or they'll have to read through...

Modern and Society on Thursday. Luckily Modern is first and you can wing parts of Society if you know your basics (which have been drilled into my head) so my biggest prblem will be the sore hand/lack of food. But on the upside, my HSC finishes at 4 o'clock that day :D.

I am having a MAJOR FREAK OUT because I just realised I didn't indicate which elective I was doing in the creative writing section. I do genre and my story can't be anything but Speculative Fiction, but will this count against me? Can't. Breathe.

I've been with my current bf for 8 months on Thursday so...one. Can't believe I actually made it this far in the first place :D.

New Zealand are improving with every game, and without Andrew Johns anything is possible. When I said closer to home I actually meant either to Australia or NZ. Guess I should've clarified.
