Re: General Thoughts: General Mathematics Haha, I guess I was lucky. No, I don't remember being taught about it for math; perhaps it was something they assumed we'd know since it was basically asking 'draw this shape'. I still managed to screw it up, though, due to general lack of thought...

Re: General Thoughts: General Mathematics I only knew the vanishing point thing because of being an art student; You get taught about it when you're learning to draw buildings. It's the term they use to describe the way that all lines around you seem to head towards a single point, due to your...

GAHHHH! No! How are you guys all coping with this fact? I've done next to no study'; I think I've worked myself to the point where I just gave up, belonging-wise. It's been my downfall in all the exams. To make things worse I've lost my copy of the prescribed text and instead of finding it...

Adv Eng (Belonging:Romulus My Father; A: Frankenstein/Bladerunner; B:Gwen Harwood; C: Conflicting perspectives: Julius Caesar)- Need to practise for those freakin unseen texts. Work on time management. Re-read Romulus. Find decent belonging related text. Ext2 Eng (Genre, Science Fiction) Learn...

Well, I've been at a fete all day so my diet is going to look rather horrible! -1.5 Litres of Coke - KFC chicken - Eight chicken nuggets - Sausage sandwich - Three Freddos - Cupcake - Toast - 1 Litre Water. I always try to at least equal what I drink in soft drink with water...

Hey, this is my related text for Julius Caesar. I know there's the "What is right/What is expected" but I'm having trouble articulating it and coming up with specific scenes; I mean, the conflicting stories in the courtroom can't really be my only thing, can it? Any ideas or good quotes that...

Thank you very much. I was just worried because it is an English degree/major, they would expect you to write a full paragraph, but I stick to the dot points to keep my ideas clear.

I'm really having trouble. I'm applying for an arts degree (my marks don't really measure up but I figure there isn't harm in trying) and I have come to this question: Briefly explain why you are interested in the degree you have selected. Also let us know your career aspirations and what you...

I Don't Wanna Grow Up - The Ramones.

Hey (: I'm just filling out my application now; it doesn't look very good because I don't have much experience when it comes to theatre... I came to a question: I don't know whether to actually answer it (Because I'd probably either apply for the one at CSU, or go into English teaching) or...

At risk of sounding like a nerd... (Since most things I like are 'educational' haha) -QI. My current obsession. -Gruen Transfer -Python's Flying Circus -Little Britain (Series 1) I just watch it on the net, really; tv never caters to my desires, haha. I'm into old British sitcoms too...

Hey (: In the second stanza there's a line which says "...The fallen instruments/of its passion lie in the relic/-new stanza-darknessof sleep and love." Okay so I get that she';s been going on about spirituality and sex, etc. Just having trouble interpreting that one line :| Is it like this...

Yeah, there's seven poems: Father and Child, Triste Triste, Mornington, Mother Who Game Life Life, The Violets, Valediction and Sharpness of death. The latter two are the hardest in my opinion. Her context really heavily influenced the poems themselves. She was a passionate feminist, a devout...

Ah, thanks; For some reason I missed the Neuromancer one on there... My teacher wrote the one on Dune.

Okay, so during my school life there have been very few books I could not get through. There was one in year 8 about a girl on a submarine, And the Hobbit. I now have Neuromancer to add to that list. I've been attempting to get through it for a month and I'm up to chapter 5. Does anyone else...
