    General Thoughts - Ancient History

    ANCIENT HISTORY FML. Screwed up the the essay in section IV. I was doomed for cramming a year's worth of work into 1 week and only studying the syllabus notes and not doing past Qs as practice. flmflmflmflmflmflmflmflm

    Didn't go that bad. Just relieved to get my first paper done and over with. Well... Still have the other half of the English exam to go ): I started on section 3, then went onto 1 and finished off with 2. Had a few minutes spare, and like usual I didn't check over my essay or creative :/ But...

    What do we need to take into exams?

    Will they let me bring a clock? I don't have a watch and my eyes tend to get blurry when i stare at the paper too long.

    I started *seriously* studying yesterday and now I'm panicking. Been re-writing notes for ancient history and its taking ages. I've been waking up at around 9:30am, start studying at around 12 (with numerous breaks in between, maybe I should cut all meals and shower time until Tuesday or...

    What is the Title of ur paiting?

    Japanese Landscapes: Colours (was it colours? or was it monuments? can't remember) that strike a memory. Or something like that. It was a makeshift title for the school's art exhibition and it didn't end up being used because my art teacher couldn't find the print out of my work's title and...

    Extension Japanese: dou datta?

    It was alright. I recon I could've done better though ): I chose questions 2 & 3. Not expecting a band 4 ): Did you go to Kogarah to do it? I didn't end up going to UNSW afterwards because I had to get home to finish my BOW for art (though I ended up procrastinating until today!).

    International studies - languages.

    Just wanted to know what level of the language you'd be learning at UTS for I.S? Do they have different classes for different levels (beginner, intermediate, advanced etc)? I do two languages atm (check sig), though apparently I'd only be allowed to major in one country/language, and if it...

    how much did you spend on your majors?

    English Extension 2 = I wasted time rather than money. Minus electricity bills, $25 for a 50 pack spindle, in which I used 2 DVD discs to burn my major on =P Visual Arts = $50 on the art fee for school, and the supplies needed were given to us up to that amount (if it went over, it had to come...

    Trial HSC results?

    Independent trial paper for English Advanced: AOS: 37/45 (I think I was supposed to get a 42/45. Teacher might've deducted 5 marks off me because I had a 'mix up' when I was writing - I jumbled the AOS with my Short answer section.) = 10(15?)/15, 13/15, 14/15 Modules: 52/60 = 17/20, 18/20...
