okay.... what are you talking about with the journal thing?? what is the deal with talking about the black/white, rich/poor thing?? Obviously our papers were altered????
the contrast question was talking about the aboriginal story.. i dont think i did too well in that either i just kinda talked about a culture clash and the guy needing to find a status quo.. like a combination to engage in both.. i dunno

I think some schools have altered the Questions
The paper we did was untouched from what i could tell
Q1 - four texts, a book review, photo, poem and prose extract
Q2 - had a series of quotes and a photo, and u had to use ONE or more them as the basis of a series of journal enrties.
Q3 - "journeys lead to a greater understanding" - use that staement, ONE Bos tect, your text and related materials

Was anyones different to this ?

pretty low.... but i think it's quality over quantity (well at least that's what i keep on repeating to myself in my head...)

My section two was that do you ever ?put one foot in front of the other? with no notion of where you are going? I started with that, then had this girl running through this country town, she was running away from the consequences of something you never find out what, then she ends up out on the highway talking to a cow. then realises she must be crazy like they say... Next entry was basically it was happening all over again, ended up at a truck stop... some dude then told her truckies only then she was runnnig again and then i closed with my opening line.... Pretty crap.... But hey it was only 1.5 pages what can you expect :)
