    The MQ Get Healthy/Study Thread

    It's normal for the muscles to feel sore the day (or days) after you have worked out hard - it can be a combination of lactic acid buildup (although this is normally if you've been running or something) and small tears in the muscle itself (which is frequently attributed to working out). But...

    Where?!

    Might have been something to do with tidying up the forum and writing more structured "guides" (with links to old threads which have been locked, not deleted) as opposed to keeping "discussion threads" from circa 2004 adding to the clutter on page one. But hey, what would I know? Oh and if...

    Video/Film - experience with working with actors?

    Thanks Komaticom, I have renewed faith in student filmakers now. :) I wondered (still do, actually) whether I'm too impatient with amateur film makers. Not that I have much experience with that medium specifically, but I'm used to a pretty high level of organisation (two-way street - if they...

    Where are you up to?

    Something I feel about writing is that "writing for other people" or "writing a story with the intention of doing ___" and "writing it to mean something" is fine as a starting block, but at a certain point you really just have to stop writing for this or for that, and just write the darn story...

    The MQ Get Healthy/Study Thread

    I do kinda get hungry, but either I am far away from food or like today, am constantly distracted from actually eating because I'm running around doing heaps of stuff (ie adrenaline keeps hunger at bay). Alternatively I get so hungry, I don't feel hungry anymore. Now that's bad :p

    lol my diet's been so bad these holidays. Either I stuff myself with whatever's around the house, or we have days like today: Breakfast - NA Lunch - a small mandarin (given to me by a friend) and a hot chocolate (shouted by a friend), so essentially a free lunch yay Dinner - NA Great...

    engagements

    About 4 girls in my HSC year got engaged. Ring and everything. Did any of them marry? No. Were they all still together a year after the engagement? No. The only person I know who recently got engaged and then married (and is the same age as me) was a schoolfriend who ended up getting pregnant...

    Where?!

    The guides Justin and myself have written so far deal with the (internal) assessments - Proposal, Viva and Report. The "Reflection Statement" is more of a "component", alongside the Journal and Major Work itself and forms the half of EE2 that is marked externally. In a nutshell, your RS is...

    How are the "Birthday Letters" crew going?

    Sure, feel free to use the same related texts, but make sure you're analysing them appropriately in relation to the module (ie don't be stupid and start waffling on about journeys in the middle of your eng adv exam :P) I guess it's impossible to study Birthday Letters without touching on the...

    Silk

    The "My Hung" wholesalers in parramatta/cabramatta should have a wide range of colours. If you're looking for a variety of weaves/textures in addition to colours, Tessuti is your new best friend (Chatswood and in the city... in the Glasshouse thingo?). They'll be a bit pricey but you'll get a...

    Being Healthy vs. Dieting

    If you are eating healthy (read: making sure you get all your calcium/iron/protein/whatnot) and regularly exercising, then you should be fine :) Some people like Cameron Diaz and Cate Blanchett (heehee, and you!) are born with naturally fantastic metabolisms. It's not a bad thing - just...

    How are the "Birthday Letters" crew going?

    Yes. At least 2 poems in detail, however you are welcome to make references to other poems (if appropriate) or even the collection as a whole at times. Good to hear that you're enjoying it so far, Birthday Letters was my favourite eng adv module :D

    How are the "Birthday Letters" crew going?

    oh wow, that book sounds a lot like a Sci Fi one called "Violet Eyes" in which two genetically modified teenagers (YES! Genetically modified to be superior in every way!) live in a "history immersion" thingo where they THINK it's 1996 but it's actually 4375 or something like that. On a similar...

    How are the "Birthday Letters" crew going?

    Grr @ continued reference to Sylvia Plath poems. Not grr at you, but grr at your teacher ;) Birthday Letters is the study of HUGHES' poetry. Not "their" poetry, or "Comparing The Different Stories Told By Sylvia Plath And Ted Hughes". You should be focusing on Birthday Letters and be able to...
