Throughout the HSC I've noticed that many words have now acquired totally new meanings.

Personally, I've accumulated a sense of hatred for the word "dotpoint".

Anything else?

Yep. A true statement and something which does bare truth in the HSC but it gets so drum into you that you eventually forget the meaning and start hating it.

  • Dot point
  • Imaginative journeys
  • Juxtapositioning
  • Bond (as in, WE NEED MONEY FOR THE FORMAL BOND YOU CHEAP BASTARDS)
  • Albert f-in Speer
  • Social & ethical issues, because IPT is so friggin boring
  • Everything my MH teacher says about our year being ridiculously hopeless (mainly in the form of telling off a whole class, a few students from his class when he passes them by, and bitching to his yr 11 class about us) and then if we're with another one of our teachers at the time he'll tell us how splendid we are and how we can do anything we set our minds to. [/rant]
  • Gender constructs! I hate Orlando, really.
