    How many pages

    I'm sure that if a marker has to sift through someone's twleve pages to find where they answered the question they won't be particularly happy, although if it's 12 concise pages, then fine. I wrote 4/3/4 of moderately small writing, but it's all concise, with a minimum of verbal wankery and, I...

    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2 (Modules)

    I think the paper went fairly well, the questions didn't really challenge my understandings of any concepts.Although I wasn't really sure what a "conflicting perspective" was.

    SOR I - Section 3! YOUR THOUGHTS

    I think the question was a lot simpler than a lot of people made it out to be. For the Islam question, just take the bits from Practice and Ethics which referred to the Qu'ran, and change the argument a little so that its focus is less on those actual things and more on the Qu'ran itself.

    Fatties have right to extra airline seat

    Well, if we need any proof, we can look at how effective Socialist Utopias have been in the past. There is in fact a very large number of political scientists who acknowledge pure Communism and pure Socialism as failed theories, as they have shown to invariably fail if applied to a group any...

    Fatties have right to extra airline seat

    sam04u, do you think that if there was no concept of 'profit', that the plane, or the the entire airline, would exist at all?? do you honestly think that an organization like this would go out of its way to provide a free service to everyone, regardless of the costs involved to the airline of...

    Opeth anyone?

    Alex, you dislike growls for the exact same reason I did. It took a few weeks for me to be able to -stand- them, and then they grew on me BIG time and now I love them. Epistemophobia, they said that they might be coming back next year! You should definitely come, best band ever.

    Austrian Death Machine

    Lol it's so awesome... an entire band dedicated to paying out arnold schwarzeneggar. Their album is musically really good too... it sounds very Machine Head.

    Favourite album covers

    Bloodbath is awesome, Cannibal Corpse is not, and Mayhem is funny. They go through so many lineup changes because they keep killing each other hahaha

    Who went to Opeth in Sydney?

    Shutup. Anyways, where was everyone standing? Because my mates and i didn't trust our abilities to get to Luna Park on time, we overreacted and arrived stupidly early. But it meant we got a spot about a metre from the barrier:). Which was awesome. I actually really loved Virgin Black too.

    Who went to Opeth in Sydney?

    ^ Born Dancer, they were young, studious and maybe the kind of people who would have Bored accounts. Besides, I don't care, you aren't helpful, and nobody asked you.

    Is Tupac the best musician to ever live?

    I only went into this thread to see if it was sarcastic or not. And it wasnt... which surprised me. If you think Tupac is the best musician to ever live, you need to listen to some more music. Different music.

    Who went to Opeth in Sydney?

    First of all, awesome show, faves for me would have to be Lotus Eater, Deliverance and the Drapery falls. I met some pretty awesome people down there, but... err... lacked the commonsense to ask their surnames, and thus have pretty tiny chances of meeting again or keeping contact:( But...

    Opeth anyone?

    Saw them Saturday night, amazing show. The 'heavy shit' is an aquired taste. I love it. And once you're used to it, you realise how much more it gives to the music, because all the 'mellow' bits are still there, but there's more dynamic variety. Don't give up on them just for the...

    Music 1 Scaling

    The way I understand it, if you get about 85 or more in ANYTHING, you're going to get scaled up... it's just that if you do BADLY in a subject which doesn't scale well, it'll hurt more. I also understand that if you're doing 7th grade piano, you'll be fine... They're not really looking for any...

    Best piano pieces for 8th grade/Associate level.

    I'm in yr 11 and do music 1, even though i got an A+ in 8th grade 3 years ago... Music 2 just wouldn't run and I wasn't keen on correspondence. Music 1 turns out to have been a bad idea, I'm totally bored with the course and the fact that it's so unchallenging makes me very unmotivated...

    Rock Sucks - alternative??

    I love all kinds of music, and finishing 8th grade piano a few years ago I've also learned guitar - aparrently with similar persuasions as petrucci_dude, leaning towards technical prog (and guys like Opeth... who aren't technical like DT or LTE but hey) here's a few steps to enjoy metal...

    are u being told not to????

    My music teacher - who is also Slickerthnsleeks' - actually heard a piece of progressive metal by Dream Theater and said that it totally lacked unity, and that it basically sucks! This is obviously not the case, and if the man had ever attempted to become accustomed to the style he would see...
