Thanks! :)

It means the texts you've studied in class. It woudl ask for additional/related material if it wanted it. Ask teacher?

My immediate reaction is for you to confer with any other dissatisfied English students, and see if you have a general concern about the way you're getting taught. You say are a top English student, so your concerns mightn't be brushed away if you hold dialogue with either the Head of the...

Howdy. I'm off to UNSW next year, and I'm just interested about the sports/clubs side of the university. Many football (soccer) tournaments etc?

True. Your statement reminded me of the songs they played on S&M, '-Human' and 'No Leaf Clover' which didn't appear on any subsequent album. We shouldn't be too harsh on the clip anyway: poor quality, live and in no way an indication of the things to come. Hopefully they have learned their...

Any fans of the band here? I first saw them live supporting In Flames at Manning Bar, and they really know how to put a show on. The music itself is killer.

Perhaps! My class were strongly advised to use some critics in the essay, even in the Trials and practice papers. It can go either way really...if you have a bit of luck, or can pull enough from behind.

"His sound is mundane and ordinary; I find his voice highly irritating; not exactly groundbreaking stuff because of identical melodies, albeit different keys.; many of his songs are similar." Groundbreaking analysis there. Just joking. I understand how James Blunt can be seen as your...

I really enjoyed Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Fall of the House of Usher'. That'd be particularly good if you're doing the CF module of E1, perhaps as a supplementary text.

On the other hand, I find that quoting critics/criticisms can aid you in the credibility of your argument. I had perhaps two or three critics overall for three poems in the essay, and that's no hard task.

As you were saying, it's all down to personal opinion.

Hmm. I do not think Argentina will qualify from Group C. Too much rests on Messi and Tevez. Yes, they have quality, but not enough. Arrogance dominates them because of their history and the Messiah Maradona, but I doubt it will see them through.

It would be noble to hand in a formal complaint, or approach your teachers/supervisors with a general class concern, but the bottom line is that you have to hand in your assessments on time in accordance with Board of Studies procedure. They are resolute and particularly uncompromising in...

Yay! I get to watch Australia's games at lovely hours in the afternoon/evening!

And how do you gauge that opinion? Just because of his mainstream success? Jeff Buckley and James Blunt are incomparable because they're from different periods, different backgrounds and ultimately different styles. Speaking of José, he's not THAT great...

Ian Fleming - Diamonds Are Forever

Remonstrate means to protest. The SuperGuide that I attached a while ago has got criticisms that could be useful for your arguments. The NSW State Library has a limited collection of Yeats critics, such as Geoffrey Thurley, but there is always a good place to start.

My main supplementary text was the 2003 film 'The Last Samurai'. Call it complex if you want - though perhaps not in the same vein as Shawshank - but it's a very good example of the concepts explored within the pathetic Physical Journey module. Cruise's character journeys through physical...

I have got a few that I love dearly, and can't choose between: John Grisham - The Firm Bret Easton Ellis - American Psycho Tolkien - LOTR

Finding Nemo is a good example of Physical Journey, one that I actually never gave much thought to when researching for supplementaries. You have to explain the link involving physical journeys and the usually positive outcome (spiritual, physical, mental growth etc), and there are several...
