You guys got bananas?? We got cucumbers.=P

Is it effective for study groups or is individual study more effective do you guys feel?

Crossroads sucks!!!!

Take it from sum1 who knows.

I never went because I knew it would suck.

My year adviser told me I would have to complete a 200 page assignment whilst the year was away on camp but nothing happened.

We got plastic bananas in which you pull off the cover, and underneath is a fake plastic penis..

Like that was going to happen anyway

Depends what subject it is.
I feel that study groups can be effective with the Humanities subjects.

Yeah true, especially in eco. My friends and I seem to end up talking a lot during group studies but sometimes when I'm studying by myself I can't find an answer and wish I was in a group. This may make me sound el lamo (like that didn't already) but what are ways that I can stop talking when studying in groups???

I like Eco. Do you like Eco?

No

Fine. :mad1:
How rude..

Hahahah I agree. Crossroads is pathetic. A lot of those program things are full of it. Just a waste of time : )

I am shizzle scared of Year 12. I feel so unprepared and like I'm some little kid that's stuck in a body that's gradually aging! Year 12 is going to be the biggest emotional rollercoaster I will ever ride I reckon... and there's so much emphasis on Year 12 and the HSC... and how everything counts... Sometimes it seems so overrated.

Okay I'm so brain dead I can't think of anything else to say.

I don't do eco

we had crossroads stuff packed into a 3 day camp - 3 days of continous motivation is not motivating

 

[IceOnFire]

At first i thought crossroads was to do with those driving safe courses...
then the doctors in the seminar mentioned safe sex.. i was like WHAT DA??

 

[fishy89sg]

its like happing PDHPE for 5 years in a row instead of 4

(not that i'm doing it )

Our crossroads was included in the annual yr 11 trip 2 jindybyne. We had 2 watch 10 things i hate about u on the bus trip up & then answer questions from a booklet.

Totally lame.
If u didnt go 2 the trip u had 2 cum 2 skool 4 the day & do it.

Totally sucky.

I think that we also had otha "trainin" days but i cant remenber wat they were.

I totally like sooo agree ... fucking crossroads



There were two options for crossroads:

1. Study the 2 hour course during Wednesday afternoons for 10 weeks on Term 1 during the HSC Course, WTF ?

2. Attend a three-day two-night camp at a scout park, costs $175

The food and cabins were shit. The scrambled eggs were not scrambled eggs, just the "Add Water" kind of food.

To make matters ever worse, I severely twisted my right ankle on the first night forcing me to move around on crutches ultimately missing out on many activities and costing two days of fun.
Although I can walk and run now, whenever I stretch my right foot I feel pain.

Crossroads reflects some of the contemporary health issues facing young people. It acknowledges and aims to support senior students as they address changing issues related to identity, independence and their changing responsibilities

The course is divided into two focus areas: Working at relationships and Drug issues. Each focus area is organised into four themes.

It is a mandatory course for all government school students in year 11 and 12. Where a student is unable to complete the course the school should make alternative arrangements.

Y did u have 2 take such a serious view on it?

We just had a demonstration - none of us touched anything.

Lucky you. We got the fabled plastic banana-mutant-penis in year 10 and two condoms. Then the teacher kinda sat back on the desk with this totally evil smirk on her face and told us to practice.

I was scarred for life that day damnit! And I don't think I ever looked at bananas the same way again.

We did Crossroads at camp. Such a bloody waste of time. I reckon that we should get some of the money off from the camp fee considering that we're doing some of the chores. It's like I'm paying for someone to use me for slave labour.

HAHHAHA!! :rofl: That's what exactly happened to us!! Except it was actual GPs who gave us a demonstration. When we were passed around the banana thingy and told to try it, I thought the guys would get straight into it and be excited!! But they were all so shy.. and kept on passing it over to the next person.

Aaahhh boys. Simple creatures who THINK they are complicated..

Hahahaha

I have to say I reacted the same way :uhhuh:
