Let's put it this way;

What's gonna allow you to earn more money in the future? Your HSC, or betting on horse races?

That's right. I'll see you at the TAB.

OMG, I HADN'T REALISED! HOW COULD YOU, IPT EXAM!

*sigh* There goes my yearly tradition of watching it. And since my family puts $2 on a horse or two each, I won't know whether I win or not for two HOURS after! OMG GAY.

Last year we got one of our exam supervisors to listen to the race and put the winners on the whiteboard.

yea makybe diva is the best horse in australia at the moment and possibly one of the legends in years to come but i dont think it will win 3 melbourne cups in a row considering last year was the first time in history that a horse won it 2 years in a row. I rekon Leica Falcon or Railings has a good chance as well.

and iamsickofyear12 thats a mad idea, might try it this year

I did the hsc last year and the ipt exam also clashed with melbourne cup.

The examiner asked whether we wanted to listen to it and he will add 10 minutes onto the end of our exam. Obviously we had to put pens down but it was a good breather.

Fuck, you are an astute tipster. Who would've thought the horse with the highest amount of prize winnings in Australasian history would be your favourite to win the Melbourne Cup? You got any other astute picks for us while you're here, Holmes?

On the 11th Hour, on the 11th Day, of the 11th Month - Rememberance Day - instead of observing a minute's silence for all those who died in battle, I will be dutifully writing myself to a standstill in my Economics exam. Sure, I'll be silent and everything, but it's hardly the same thing. And when it comes to a lack of respect for Australian culture and history, this pretty much comes top of my list.
