    How is everyone going?

    xDD Good luck! Yay for new ideas. I'm surprised your proposal's not due yet though; I thought they did them before the holidays. Or maybe that's just my school.

    Hi everyone! :) Another latecomer here who didn't notice the thread ^^ I am the only person in my EE2 class xD There are about 12 in EE1. I'm doing a short story exploring how/why Hamlet changed between leaving for England and returning to Denmark.

    How recent is RECENT in an essay question?

    Recent events - in the last ten years. Recent statistics - in the last 1-3 years. Or at least, that's what I've always thought :)

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    @mty- xDD What's your film gonna be about? @hope- Yeah, only it's a hand-in not a presentation or anything xD How is yours going? did you end up changing your idea?

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    Have you guys had to hand in proposals yet? Mine's due on Monday. Although it doesn't go towards anything, so I wasn't sure if it was something everyone had to do or just my school.

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    @hope- That'd give you an advantage, which is always good :) Saves you reading a new novel from scratch too! xDD I meant Ext1 maths, sorry for not being clear about it *shot* In Ext1 English so far we've only really been researching absurdism and reading Waiting for Godot. D888 Ahhh! Late...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    @hope- Ahaha, no problem ^^ *will stop using obscure slang* it does actually sound like a military group, now that I think about it xD Oh! Right. And yeah, I meant 1984 for After the Bomb... I'm not really sure what other ones there are to do. Is Catch 22 a cold war text? *has no idea* For my...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    I don't think you should be worried about the belonging thing; after all it's meant to link to the course somehow :) :) xDD ahh, 'IKR' just means 'I know right', it's an expression. *shot for using internet slang all the time* ^^; Cool! Which Marchetta novel? :) I was planning to do Orwell's...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    Sounds good! It reminds me of something my sister did for belonging earlier this year about how to some extent you need to conform/compromise if you want to achieve a sense of belonging. The short story 'French Joe' might fit with that a bit :) Good luck with it! IKR it makes me so angry that...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    Me neither xD By exaggerated conformity I assume you're talking about the sort of peer pressure/sheep mentality thing? The only one I can think of is Walking Naked by Alyssa Brugman... what other texts did you have so far? My class always lags way behind xD O_O That's indeed very soon! What's...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    @hope - erk.....can't really say because I'm not the best at critical responses, so I'm not sure xP I wouldn't be worried so much about originality, because I'm sure there's at least one essay already written on every topic in existence, but if it was exactly the same as what you wanted to argue...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    ahhh sorry it took me so long to reply xPP @hope- I'm sorry to hear that *hugs* Your critical idea sounds interesting! It's been a few days now so have there been any developments? have you decided for sure on whether to do critical or creative? We did World at the start of 20th Century as...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    @hope14- What! That's rather mean of her O__o I'm sure they weren't awful! What was the critical response idea? Did she at least give you some new ideas to work with? *sympathetic hugs* At least it happened early on so there's time to fix things.. (I love the WWI topic as well :D It's actually...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    a;sogab I don't knooow D888 I don't do hist ext, only modern history, so I don't know that much about the project.... but in all honesty it sounds like it might be easier changing your Ext2 subject if your history backup idea has been taken ^^; Did you have any other ideas for Ext2 that you...

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    D888 Ahh that sucks! Have you thought about changing your history idea instead? *shot* Or is it something you're set on doing? It would be awful if you had to start from scratch though!

    Does anyone else have no idea what they're doing for their MW?

    @hope- Probably anything from first-second wave feminism? That sort of power-of-women thing might fit your idea... I'm not sure though xD And yeah, it sounded like you had a good idea where you're going with it! I'm still a bit uncertain about mine; trying to get my idea down pat before I get...

    Viva Voce - already???!

    @avro- this may be a stupid question, but what exactly do you mean by 'literary theory'? ^^;

    Viva Voce - already???!

    O_O That is indeed very early! Mine's not 'till Week 4 next term. I haven't thought much about mine yet (also I'm doing a creative not a critical) but the list of things you need to have in it seems pretty straightforward. Good luck with it! :) Have you already decided on the topic for your...
