hey guise ~

I'll bring along a copy of all the essays I wrote from last year. As someone who went into trials and the HSC with (readily adaptable) memorised essays, I totally understand if any of you are the type who just cannot bring themselves to write an essay on the spot by simply utilising a list of memorised techniques/quotes... so feel free to find me on the day if you want any tips on how to write said adaptable essays (I seriously only wrote one essay per section/module, then kind of just looked at billions of papers and thought about whether I could, or how I could, adapt my essay to that question if I were in an exam situation), or if you just want to take a look at my essays, or ask anything text-specific, etc.

I'll also have a look at any essays. I did The Crucible, Pride and Prejudice, Hamlet and Ted Hughes, so apart from AOS, I don't really feel qualified to look over anything else D:

If anyone is interested, I'll also bring along my original paper from the 2011 HSC. I got a raw mark of 44/45 for AOS (14.5, 14.5, 15)... although I may not feel comfortable sharing the creative. Just find me on the day.

Sounds amazing- thanks so much. Could I compare your HSC paper with your original essay to see how you adapt to different questions? If you don't want to share the creative, that's fine.

Yeah sure :)

@Shadowdude, I dunno though, I'd feel a bit odd going around trying to read every girl's name tag @___@

and yeah um, absolutely no other distinguishing features.

I guess you'll just have to go around reading name tags.

make your nametag nice and distinctive

Like, if I end up going (depends - I might drop by in the morning) - I'll have a nice orange/green colour scheme going on on mine

Food will be finalised on the Monday because that's when the Librarian returns from her holidays.

Chemistry Seminar I have iSplicer in mind but if he doesn't wish to, then Mirakon has a suggestion.

Been extremely busy recently, even after exams.

Can any of the english gods that are coming bring any essays that they have so I can have a look at things like structure, expression etc?

I haven't written any essays on the current syllabus, but I have some killer uni ones which demonstrate good structure/expression. So if you're not too worried about content, but want more skills that can be generalised, come have a chat with me :)

(I should probably also say I know most of the current syllabus, I just haven't written stuff on it myself)
