EDIT: I'm really sorry to digress from your initial subject physician, i'm not meaning to sort of detract any of the magnitude of you leaving or anything |
lol... there's no need to be sorry black man...
i initially chose E.E.2 ( 1 ) because i love writing poems..
( 2 ) because i wanted to write about something that i felt was sometimes too dificult to express in any form other than the written form...
my major work was based upon the theme of motherhood.. I initially wanted to investigate and make comparison between the status of mothers in Christinaity/Judaism and Islam
I was also inspired by the two advanced english preliminary texts ( wuthering heights and Robert Frost poetry)...
u know i found out that Robert Frost's mother as well as Wilfred Owen's mother played a siginificant role in influencing the kind of poetry they wrote...
It's kind of like saying "behind every just ruler lies a just/peaceful/intelligent/benevolent mother" (i know that's not how the saying goes... that's just my interpretation)
anyways... my major work kind of provided me with some relief from all the calculation and memorisation involved in my other subjects... i would allow my mind to drift off into a world filled with my thoughts.. and eventually was able to put them on paper...
I think i would have burnt out long ago if it wasn't for 4 unit... oneof the reasons why i continue to work on my major work every now and then .. (lol like 10 minutes a month.... lol just kidding)
I love english extension 2 and i will always continue to love the subject...
i was able to learn heaps of stuff about mother daughter/mother son/ father daughter/ father son relations... and just how parents can impact our lives... I managed to make comparisoons between Christianity and Islam by researching both perspectives on Mary - or Mariam - and they way she was viewed by the religious followers of both religions...
i also found out that Dates are an excellent food intake for pregnant women... Allah advised Mariam (Mary) to eat dates whilst she was pregnant... here's an extract from my resreach:
Allah advised Maryam to eat freshly ripened dates. Today, such dates are considered to be food and medicine. Scientists nowknow that dates contain more than ten substances considered essential for the human bosy's well-being and continuing helath.
Dates ontain plenty of the easily digested and absorbed sugars that give the human body its energy for heat and movement....
there's alot more where that came from...
so ladies during pregnancy make sure u get plenty of dates...
anyways... that's just a portion of the things i learnt... I was also trying to combine science with english/philosophy which i knew would help me out in my other subjects...
and indeed it did....
4 unit in general has really made yr 12 and enjoyabel year... and has taught me hepas of new stuff...
once again thank u E.E.2
Note: lol... i just realised how long my message was....
