    Fountain Pens!

    Actually, that was me. Get your facts straight. And is this not a discussion board? I believe discussions need more than one person, and one opinion to have merit. It's of our opinion spending a substantial amount of money on a pen is ridiculous, and perfectly substantial reasons have been...

    Fountain Pens!

    Agreed. And the fact that the need is felt to discuss wanky, expensive brand-name pen's just comes off as way to pretentious. So what, you spent craploads on a pen? It's not like the HSC marker is gonna look down and go, "Hey! This person gets better marks! I can just tell they've spent lots on...

    Any of you guys?

    Yeah, Ext Two is my 10th unit, and I've never doubted my decision in having it be that. I've never been good at maths, so I figured why waste my time on a subject I can't stand? I'm now able to put much more effort into my Major Work, and at te end of the day, I feel Ext Two is gonna help me get...

    The '09 PIP Thread

    "God's Country" is this unnofficial name that the Shires been given over the years. I think it's come from the fact that it's seen as so good, which is sort of ridiculous, but yeah. "Suburbism" is a word I've created - as I'm doing a comparison between the Sutherland Shire and St. George Regions.

    Future Plans: What ATAR/course/job are you aiming for?

    Re: What UAI are you aiming for? My ideal UAI is in the low 90's, but I'm prepared for completely stuffing up and ending up with a poor score, so: If I get 90+ - A Bachelor of International Communication & Media Studies, majoring in Screen Studies. If I get 75 - 90 - See above, just take...

    Anyone else put on a few kgs 'because' of the HSC?

    I've gotta say, my biggest worry doing the HSC this year is putting weight back on. Early last year, I was around 97kg at my heaviest, but I managed to lose about 17kg over the course of the year, so I've been hovering around 80-84 for the last few months. I've only been back at school three...

    How much have you written so far? Freaking a little.

    You guys are scaring me! I've only written about 1,000 words. I'm still stuck on the research side of things, but our teachers really getting on our back about just getting our first draft done. I actually don't mind the journal side of things. I find writing in it really helps me form the...
