    The Vampire Chronicles

    Are you serious? Fantastic! Go Elton John! I can't wait either. Grendel, I know what you mean. I loved Louis in the beginning, but then I wound up thinking that he was so much of a coward and so afraid to let go of his human side to become what he truly is. On one hand, it's good that he...

    Not attracted to your race

    I tend to find that regarding assimilation, there's a larger current of Asians adopting traditionally Caucasian attitudes/characteristics, and less the other way around. I'm not saying that there isn't at all -- my sister's friend is a good example, but would you say that this is due to the...

    The Vampire Chronicles

    Since there doesn't seem to be a thread for it -- if there is, could someone kindly point me to it? How do you like it? I'm yet to read the Feast Of All Saints, Merrick and the last one (forgotten the name) I love Marius, his pain touches me. I can't helt but cry for him. And Armand...

    Angelas Ashes

    Like Veanz, I loved the innocence and simplicity of the novel. The childish language used to describe the more intense/emotionally draining parts of his life makes it a really enjoyable read. I know I probably sound like a book critic, but in short, I really loved it. 'Tis was ... repetitive...

    Advanced Eng v. Standard Eng

    It sounds like you're willing to put in the effort and this will reflect your marks :) I wish you the best of luck with Advanced! Don't stress out about it and enjoy the texts :gridnod:

    The First Kiss

    Haha. It caught me off guard since I wasn't actually expecting it. And suddenly these lips are on mine and I'm wondering what the Hell was going on. Of course, I figured it out quite quickly and enjoyed it thoroughly, thank you very much. :) What do you people prefer? With tongue or without?

    going down there...

    Not sure whether this has been brought up, but apparently the bodily fluids that come (no pun intended) after drinking pineapple juice are quite enjoyable. Cannabalism? What are you eating there? Saliva? :rolleyes: Ah well. Gotta love this crazy world.

    Not attracted to your race

    Oh Damn, how could I possibly have forgotten about Damien from BB? He was gorgeous. Asian is a broad term. Over in the UK they call Asians Oriental. Maybe we ought to adopt that too since Australia likes to base itself on big, stronger nations. Gah! I'm in a cynical mood tonight. You...

    i'm SOOO... confused!

    Go for it -- there's nothing to lose! :uhhuh: And if things don't turn out the way you want them to, just tell him that you misinterpreted some of the things that he did. And if he's not too much of a waste-of-space he should understand that and be nice about it. But like Cactus said, it...

    Not attracted to your race

    I think there are a lot of racist Asians. I don't know whether it's just mainstream popular culture that seems to demand for one to be attracted to more European/Caucasian types or what, but it seems to have happening everywhere. I, for one, am guilty of this offense. I don't know whether...

    Advanced Eng v. Standard Eng

    Teachers can attempt to persuade you, but don't do it if you don't feel it's right. If you just space out your time and build up a good collection of notes and study habits, you should be fine ;) Put it this way, doing Standard still means that you're going to have to put in the same amount of...

    [B]Which breed are you?

    With Religious Schools, it's not like you have to be religious anyway. Although I did hear that you have to be baptised or whatever it is. Sorry, I'm not very religiously-literate. And yes, it does seem that each year becomes smarter and smarter. Which leads to year 7s thinking that they're...

    What you should and shouldnt pick for year 11 and year 12 ( reasons )

    Yup, what Daria said is important. Originally I was opting for Psychology, but last term I got it in my head that doing Medicine wouldn't be too bad (if I managed to get it). Unfortunately, I don't take Chemistry(which is recommended, I think). And so I was beating myself up about whether or not...

    Musical Instruments

    Violin Power!! I've only been playing a year though, but I still love it (even though I don't practise nearly as much as I should) I used to play Piano, but I hated it.

    What you should and shouldnt pick for year 11 and year 12 ( reasons )

    "More likely" seems to be the key word here. I started Year 11 with Society And Culture and received 86% in the half yearly exam (which isn't bad :o ) but found it boring. So I swapped it for Modern History. And then found I hated that more except I seem to be performing better it in than...

    Advanced Eng v. Standard Eng

    I think that not rushing assessments goes for both Standard and Advance. :uhhuh: But if you feel capable (and it's only the studying part that's bothering you), then I recommend you stick with English Advanced. Is there much difference between the two anyway?

    Best way to improve English Essays?

    Topic Sentences! Link back to the question. There's no point in having all this information smack bang in the middle of your essay if it doesn't somehow link to the question. At the beginning of the essay, ask yourself "What is the question asking me to do?" All throughout the essay, ask...

    Selective High Schools

    My brother got into Girraween, and my mum's not very happy about that. I think think there isn't much here for the junior grades anyway. Not much for Year 11 either, now that I think about it.
