    Positives & Negatives of Major Works!

    i like the fact that you get something out of all your efforts, even though i know that ill be unhappy with it by the end anyway. i dont like that the efforts put in aren't appreciated to their total extent ie. poor scaling. also, there is a lot of waiting around and then work put in in your own...

    T&D Assessment

    all fashion magazines will have heaps - i dont know what kinda skirt you're making (formal/street/funky) but maybe a bridal magazine or girls surfing magazine or something would be suitable. mags like vogue are excellent for formal wear/red carpet stuff/designer fashion. hope you find what...

    Would you reccommend extension?

    if possible, find out who your teacher will be and what your case study will be. my teacher is fantastic, and we're doing a case study which interests me - jesus christ - but im still having trouble with the work, the workload (its one of *those* extension subjects) and motivation (difficult to...

    Maestro

    i didnt really like that boy, he was so up himself and thought that he could achieve artistic perfection (too much romantic poetry influencing all my thoughts now!) but i loved the small details of his teacher - his crisp white linen suit that he wore through the heat of tropical summer, the...

    How good are your teachers?

    most of my teachers are great, theyre willing to put in extra time if you are. unfortunately my chemistry teacher is...bluntly, crap. she teaches us from the old syllabus 'just for interests sake', and then when we run out of time to finish topics she will photocopy a section of dot points and...

    i dont know how u could make this relate but when the men married a woman they shaved the womans head so she was more masculine, to 'ease' the man into this unfamiliar relationship, apparently.

    we're doing jesus in my class, which is really good at the moment because theres a lot of new info in the media right now with the release of 'the passion' - it has seemed to spark a few other documentaries that are really relevant to be shown.

    Sophie's World

    i read it for year 9 philosophy - we only had to read a small section for philosophy, but i persisted and read the whole book, which completely ruined the portion set for class. it was too strange and obscure for my liking - Sophie just didnt react the way any person, normal or otherwise, ever...

    im a bit worried because im making an oh-so-typical formal gown (in a not-so-typical fashion, but still) and everyone says NOT to do a formal gown because the markers get so sick of them. do u think i should jazz it up a little with accessories and make it a costume?

    private ( catholic ) vs. PUBLIC

    i'm not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but what is the fear associated with public schools?? many people seem to be mentioning things along the lines of 'i dont think i could handle a public school' as if its a trial or torture to be endured?? maybe it's just because i like in a country...
