    English = Study block

    I do 50 on, 10 off, and rinse repeat. I do two to three sessions of one subject - though depending on my mood I'll do more or less - then swap. I make mind maps and diagrams, rewrite essays and stories, make dot points and then expand them into paragraphs, summarise, all sorts of things. 50...

    English = Study block

    I do 9 hour days of study So, everything is a pain in the ass at the moment. I'm so disgustingly demotivated. =\ But if anything I'm a bit heavier focussed on English, it being my first two exams. If I start off with those two papers strong and set myself a positive tone, then I will feel...

    Did your career aspirations decrease as time went on?

    advanced english syllabus?

    if you argued with me you'd probably change my mind (then again, having finished the course i think greek plays would have just been another headache and were i to be teaching or about to start the course i'd probably be totally on your side) raincheck!

    ok, so im hitching myself onto the bandwagon

    intentionalist/structuralist debates = omnomnomnom I just really enjoy Weimar. I enjoy the regime too but.. its basically just all down hill. At least with Weimar there was the potential for pot of gold at the end of rainbow. Once Hitler utilised article 48, in retrospect it was a downhill slope.

    advanced english syllabus?

    I think the difference is though, Shakespeares plays continue to reflect society and its individuals even today. The emotion and the processes, all that jazz. While Greek plays are great examples of literature, I agree whole heartedly they should be in the syllabus somewhere, they don't do that...

    ok, so im hitching myself onto the bandwagon

    Indochina, possibly my favourite area of modern history study. Well, not true because I have so many. Do you prefer the study of Weimar and its rise and fall, or Hitler and the Nazi regime more? call me a non comformist, but damn I get off over Weimar. <3

    ok, so im hitching myself onto the bandwagon

    I always do it basically in order, just because WW1 can be done so quickly I've got extra time to work on my essays if the questions are a bit of a skew from what I wanted. Though I do Riefenstahl before Germany for the same reason. Gets me in the mind frame and calms me down.

    WW1 is such a give away section though! I mean you can walk in with half as much as you know about Germany and still do ok because of the sources. They act as both props and crutches. You do Speer or Riefenstahl as your personality?

    I actually thank history ex heaps for the last question of ww1. really makes you think on a deeper level about the source. did you do the independant or catholic trial?

    I got 10/10 on the last part of section one, the reliability and perspectives for the first time ever. He gave it one tick and one word "earnt". I was like, sir, you're so lame. I also got 25/25 for Germany ^^!

    What will you be doing post-HSC?

    I'm actually hoping not lose my greens over that break. Much waking up at noon and still being over the limit = much chance of license lossage.
