I know - once you have a week off from freaking exams you just don't wanna study anymore! I haven't had an exam since extension 1 english, except Visual Arts yesterday, but I never studied for that because I just really couldn't do it after having an entire week or so off...and now i'm feeling the same for drama - the most i've done so far is sit down last night and write a measly essay on Bush+City. I haven't even motivated myself to start anything Absurd yet...

I just can't wait till it's ALL OVER...stupid Brumby Innes...

I reckon! I have a feeling i'm just going to go into that exam and wing it. Make up all my stupid 'experiential learning workshops',pull a few quotes outta nowhere, and basically talk about what I know and hope that suffices.

LOL - yeah, a plan it is, indeed!

Good old existentialism. I mean, I have to say that I actually don't mind Absurd, probably because all my thinking is actually...absurd. So, Absurd is all good. Just hate Bush+City (especially Brumby Innes).

I just really hope they don't pull out a question thats like: 'Hi kids, you're a director in today's exam...Please explain how you would stage a production of your core texts relating back to conventions of Realism and the themes present in the plays' ... I HATE questions like that, I much prefer the essays that you can waffle in...but thats just me.

Good Luck, though!
GO TEAM!

I completely concur! And we'll bust out the pitchforks and the flaming torches...

Fancy putting Drama on the LAST day of exams - so stupid. Everyone else is all out there having fun, shopping, at the beach, and not to mention continually rubbing in the fact that they have FINISHED exams and it sucks to be anyone doing Drama on the last day...grrr!

LOL - thats like me...
I haven't read any of the core texts since we started them - the most I managed was skimming through them and going 'Yeah, that'll do - know a few quotes...whatever'.

yeah, pitch forks sound great. no one is allowed to wash for a long time, roll around in the mud, bring a few chickens and goats and wear leather waist coats. my problem has been partying when each of my friends finish, so my brain is totaly fried in the middle of the hsc. melbourne cup day, betting and red wine, last weekend, wednesday night.... etc. not such a good idea. and now im trying to study with psytrance. how ridiculous, i never listen to psytrance

LOL - totally! Something must be wrong with me though, i've been attempting to study to Classical Baroque, Opera, and heaven forbid...Anthony Callea continuously singing 'The Prayer'...pfft. I don't think it's helping me...i suspect it's actually distracting me further...HA! perfect!

Ahh, yes...the 'retarded photocopier' music! Some would say it is a blessing in disguise - but I agree with you...you don't ever want to hear a photocopier going off it's rocker while attempting to study.
