    I'm falling behind in Chemistry

    Ok *tries to use memory*. Apparently pure H2O is a pretty bad conductor of electricity. But once you get into sea water and bathwater...they can conduct electricity better. Can anyone confirm that???

    I'm falling behind in Chemistry

    Yah...this topic...gahhh :(. It goes over A LOT of things, but doesn't actually go into many things in depth...the teacher always has to say "we'll do this properly in a later topic" so that adds to the whole confusion as well. Has anyone else had this problem as well?

    I'm falling behind in Chemistry

    Ahhh, thank you guys, for all your tips and support. I have the textbook "Conquering Chemistry" which is pretty good indeed. It's official. I AM going pretty badly. I got results of my first assessment task back today...I'm second last in the grade/class (we only have one class of 23 in the...

    I'm falling behind in Chemistry

    I had my parent/teacher/student interviews at the end of last term, and as I had predicted, I'm not doing so well in Chemistry. Does anyone have any tips/help specifically related to studying Chemistry that they could offer? Anything really...like something that has possibly helped you...

    Half-Yearlies

    Yaya, I don't get half-yearly's for prelim. year. I'm very happy about that. It'd cause me unnecessary stress.

    If English wasn't compulsory, would you do it?

    Yes, I would still do English. I love it, and get lot's of enjoyment out of it (most of the time).

    What did you achieve these holidays?

    Gahh, I've been doing most of it in the past few days. I really didn't study. During the holidays...I did some research for my Modern History Assignment...but really...I just caught up on sleep and having a life. I don't know why they give us so much work during the holidays...it's quite...

    songlyrics for change texts..

    Yes, with the whole doing a song thing, our teachers specifically outlined (over and over again^o^) not to do anything mainstream.

    Notes: Typed Or Written?

    I like handwriting my notes because I am more likely to look at my colourful, hand-written notes than typed ones. Typed notes make me think I'm just reading off a worksheet I got at school.

    bio or physics ?

    I generally don't like formulas. I like words the most, even if it takes longer. So Biology is for me. I also have more interest in plants/animals/humans etc...than forces etc. Really, no science is better than another...it's simple down to personal preference.

    How many hours of hw/studying do U do?

    Gahh. I don't wake up until 7...and can't imagine myself waking up at 5am to study unless it was absolutely necessary. I am definitely not a morning person..and cannot function that early..lol

    songlyrics for change texts..

    Hmm. This is freaking me out now. I'm not too worried about doing a song...just the subject of my song deals with sex changes and abortions and having sex. But I don't see why I can't do this...we do a lot of texts in English with sexual themes and swearing. It's not like we're not allowed to...

    How was your school day?

    Hmm, pretty good overall I think: English Adv. - We had a debate. Pretty fun, except I got on the side I was completely morally against. Biology (x2) - Did some work. Sat there looking at my pen for some of the lesson. Overall, it pays to be ahead in work sometimes. Gen. Maths - Skipped this...

    How was your school day?

    Ick. 1. I've become awfully paranoid around the people in my school choir. 2. Chemistry makes little sense to me. 3. I have to write a giant report for Biology before Thursday. 4. I feel very alone during classes which funnily enough I have friends with. I can't handle this competition, and it...

    Languages

    In Year 8 I studied two European languages at once (one at school, and one out of school) and it was definitely hard. It wasn't so much the grammar rules that became confusing, it was more, that when I was in one language, I might start thinking about words in the other language....so that was...

    what assignments have you guys been given?

    ccc123- Oooh, cool. Texts: I'm doing "The Crucible" for English Adv. and "The Hours" for English Ext. What are you doing?

    How was your school day?

    Hmm, since we're doing period-by-period things now...I might join in. 1st Period - Homeroom - We had a meeting with the year group about camp/retreat week, cleaned up our room, read through a Syd Uni guide, finished English homework. 2nd Period - Biology - We finished our Local Ecosystem...

    WHat are your goals, what do you want to be when you leave school?

    Hmm...when I finish high school I have a lot of ideas of what I'd like to be. Possible careers: in print media (specifically doing music journalism), medicine, musician, actress, roadie.
