    Skinnies vs. flares/bootlegs

    Do you prefer skinny jeans, or the traditional bootlegs or even flares? Personally, I like skinnies the best. They're my new obsession. Lee Supatubes are awesome. Bought a pair a few weeks ago and love them :)

    Past/current HSC students: Did you prefer holidays or school days?

    I know this sounds strange. Most of you will probably enjoy holidays more. But I have to say, I hate HSC holidays. They were great before this year, but now they just suck. I go to bed late. I get up late. I eat late. I am lazy. I bludge all day when I have a nice pile of assignments to do...

    Why does everyone become so satirical during/after the HSC?

    Discuss. Is it the HSC, or is it that time of a person's life? Surely I'm not imagining it... other people on BOS have pointed it out!

    When as assignment seems impossible... :(

    This is the first time I've gotten an assignment that I just can't seem to do. I can't get my head around it; my teacher has confused me, so has the task notification. It's about Pompeii and Herculaneum. What we have to do is collect secondary sources about the regions in relation to trade...

    Maths vs. English

    What do you prefer and why? Myself, I can't stand maths, I never have and I never will. I'm not doing maths for my HSC. But I am doing 4 units of english. I love english because you actually have to think about things yourself and apply what you believe to them. There's also the creativity...

    This morning my dad and I were getting rid of old files on our computer to speed it up. Unfortunately, we ended up wiping the entire system and had to reload Windows XP. Stupid stuff.

    Is this too many notes for Bio?

    I've written up the first topic for bio (Maintaining a Balance), and it's approximately 40 pages. This topic took us the whole term. Do you think this is too many pages of notes? I'm really confused.
