Lincoln, King and Keating. I dont know about anyone else, but did anyone else treat this as a speech of sorts? Cause I did, half-heartedly...

I had another speech- as it is in my case- in my head just incase! And I prepared it last night so I didnt have much problems with 3, although one lacked depth, which is never a good thing. Oh well.

I got really confused on how to write that text type...what is it anyway?

I done Goldman, Pearson and Lincoln. If I had memorised my essay that I wrote last week, I would have done extremely well...too bad I didn't ey. The Lincoln part sucked!

Wasn't prepared to discuss 3 speeches, I only knew 2 in depth. I answered the question ok but obviously my last speech was a little vague, I knew what it was about and the context of it... but had no quotes from it to support my arguement :(

Socrates, Goldman, Levertov. I crapped on about how despite changes in context and different language devices there are universal values to all three speeches, blah blah blah I really have no idea.

I wrote about Socrates, Goldman and King...Socrates was kind of a throwin a the last minute thing! Was not expecting three but i was really relieved when they didnt specify any speeches hey. Was anyone else a bit worried they were writing three essays, kinda like they had misread the question??? Overall not too bad i thought

Wrote 7 pages of bullshit on Lincoln, Havel and Keating. For Keating I practically said "Keating similarly uses ______" for all the Lincoln stuff.

Definetly agree they must of been sniffing something.
I did Lincoln, Keating and King, along with half the bloody state! Keating was pretty breif and basic, I wrote mine like I was speaking in a debate, so had all the speech features and argument, yet all my friends just wrote an argument?
