    Any good Australian poems about immigrants/by immigrants?

    Definately Peter SKRZYNECKI, although I believe Shan TAN's picture books on the immigrant experience would be wonderful as well.

    Some good justice related texts?

    The Oresteia, particularly The Eumenides. I also think you should check out books from the crime fiction genre which always inevitably encounters issues of justice/injustice.

    Help with Plath-After the Bomb essay

    Paradigms is an important term to know/learn as it essentially means "ways of thinking". When you are talking about different paradigms of a text you are talking about different ways of reading a text eg. social, religious, philosophical, psychological.

    Related Text question.

    I think songs should be fine as long as it has some depth to it AND that you can extract a lot of meaning/links to belonging from it. I've seen it done with Creep by Radiohead.

    Haven't read it but I personally think the book/series would be too long to analyse...I love Harry Potter, but I wouldn't dare to use it as a related text.

    Is Society and Culture an interesting subject?

    Yes I agree with jnney. You won't know if it's for you until you try it out in year 11. Some may find the content hideously tedious and inconsequential, while others will find it thought provoking.

    What's uni like??

    That is usually only the case with International students. Some but not all. And I wouldn't be so quick to count all chinese students as being "lazy as shit". I believe I work harder than most in any group assignment situation.
