I'm feeling better :D Did teaching tonight, so that's probably why. I have a feeling it was brought on by sitting in front of the computer for too long. Breakfast: Scrambled eggs, a hash brown, and smoked chicken Lunch: Umm... what did I have for lunch? :confused: uh oh, maybe I...

Re: Public School vs. Private I say it depends on the teachers. If you don't have good teachers, then you are in trouble (unless you have very good tutors). I went to a public school (albiet selective) , and I think I did pretty well not because I worked my butt off (because I know that...

*reverts back to HSC self* No, I don't record myself. I tend to set a goal - eg "I'm going to learn about this text, or this chapter" and spend however long it takes to understand that bit. I VERY rarely studied during my HSC, save cramming leading up to exams. Was expecting a UAI in the...

princesses don't grope little kids :p

I want to dress up as a disney character! :D (preferably one of the princesses. Not just because I want to dress up as a princess, but because I get to breathe then as well! Those full-body costumes are heavy, and really hot to wear, I hear :S)

Practice makes perfect, sweetheart. My writing speed increased hugely over the HSC - granted it got pretty messy (particularly past the first two pages) but I did get faster too! :) Additionally, quality is better than quanitity. Even an "non-speed writer" could get a band six if the...

will do :p Any kind of feedback is good! In other news, three different critiquers have all preferred the story I thought I wasted my time on, so I've changed my focus to that now :D

Re: What do you think of the BOS wiki? A couple of mods are trying to change this as we speak ;) Ah, exam study procrastination...

mm, just sounds like water weight to me. I'm munching on a loverly breakfast right now, because I'm frustrated with english and arts. 2 scrambled eggs, smoked chicken, and a hash brown. mmm!

lol, yup. I spent all of yesterday writing a story that I thought wasn't as good as another pre-written piece... so finally started reworking that second piece late last night. Just showed both pieces to someone else in the course, and they like the one I spent all of yesterday on. I...

I feel I'm pretty close to finishing but I haven't had any "extensive" changes since first draft... if anyone has some time free, could you give it a read and critique it for me? It's only 1 200 words so won't take you long to whip through - plus it's creative writing so it won't require too...

Christina! Because I actually respect her as an artist Although admittedly whilst I hate Britney as a person and have absolutely no respect for her, I bought her last album and always dance to her songs :p So good for dancing!

Breakfast: Tub of jalna yoghourt I think Lunch: 2 small tacos with cheese Dinner: Bowl of rice porridge with meat Study: Spent all day on ENGL218 only to realise I like a pre-written piece better *head desk* however I'm going to leave the reflection and final draft for tomorrow when...

But if I nap before I've finished my english (almost done, for today anyway) and 1500 words of my arts essay, I won't get my pet fish :( ^ Over the last two days I've really wanted some pet fish, so I'm using it as a bribe I have a massive glass of water next to me though. I have great...

haha, mine's not that bad I just feel very woozy-headed. Like I want to crawl into bed and sleep it off :( But can't... have things to write up!!! :(

*holds head and rubs eyes* After feeling perky over the last few days/weeks I now have a minor headache coming on and my eyes a really sore :( I hope I'm not getting sick...

What I think could actually reduce crashes etc is some kind of compulsary one-day course. I did one of these with AAMI, who in turn reduced car insurance fees. We did all this stuff like finding out how long it took for our cars to stop if we slammed on emergency breaks, agility courses (to...

yes but then it'd be a rip off of the usyd "get fat and fail" thread :p

I've been snacking muchly on yoghourt, dip and rice crackers, cups of milk. Mostly procrastinating, though. *slaps wrist* mm time to get back to exam assessments...

hahahaha good work Mike! Whoo Anne and I have about half the threads's posts between us... lol
