Anything when you're underwater A room full of laptops typing The sound of pages turning Cutting into any type of melon Steady rain on the rooftops

For ii) a. Total 5 prizes: 9C5 3W have prizes: 6C3 2M have prizes: 3C2 Therefore probability of 3 women receiving prizes w/ limit 1pp: (6C3 x 3C2) / 9C5 = 10/21. Also, what's the answer to b? I want to check the answer I'm getting.

Ah, the age old question that I debated myself a few years ago. The IB is for all-rounders, since you need to pick subjects from each "group". Whereas, in the HSC, you can choose your strongest subjects. IB also has a lot of "extra" subjects, like TOK (Theory of Knowledge) and CAS (Community...

Normal day: SPF15 moisturizer. Lipbalm. Going out: SPF15 moisturizer. Lipstick. Eyeliner/mascara. I try to stay away from foundation, blush, bronzer, etc.

We know that A = πr^2 x h = 8600 m^3 Rearranging for h, h = 8600/πr^2 Surface area equation is given by S = 2πr^2 + 2πrh (as in, two circles and one rectangle whose width is equal to the circumference of a circle) Substituting the value of h in terms of the base radius, S = 2πr^2 +...

I hated Year 11 Biology. Year 12 is much more interesting, like you said. Difficulty aside, at the end of the day it's just straight out memorization. If you can't remember shitloads of information, or understand all the concepts (Bio's pretty heavy), don't do it. You'll struggle.

When it comes down to it you have to be flexible. If there's laundry, you do it. If she can't cook tonight because she's tired, you do it. Similarly, if you need a hand in the garden, she'd better hoist her ass out there. But as long as you're not like "bitch, it's your job to clean, not mine"...

Fair enough if you hate cleaning, but housekeeper or no, you'd need to pull your weight somewhere else. Otherwise your wife will get pissed pretty quickly. Yeah, you'd take care of the kids and pay for the cleaning, but then what about everything else? Picking said kids up, doing the laundry...

Also: [frockwriter]: Vale Alexander McQueen I was really surprised to find out that he was 40. What a waste. RIP crazy, wonderful designer. Cue Lady Gaga in armadillos at the funeral.

Really getting into crime fiction now, I never used to read it before. Loving the analysis, though the writing is a bitch.

Vernon God Little - DBC Pierre Gets me every time.

The Matrix calculator is okay, but also try Atar calculator. I'd say the predictions are accurate within a certain range, since there are obviously other factors like internal rankings, etc.

I agree. When I'm 80 and my youth is a dim memory I'd love to have photographs as a physical reminder. I try to take a camera with me whenever I go out. Also on special occasions I take hundreds if possible, e.g. holidays, family reunions, birthdays. This year on our last high school camp, at...

Browsing in a book store =/= browsing online imo. I love wandering around in Borders, Dymocks etc. just looking for interesting reads. I only have e-books for texts that I'm not willing to buy.

Maths Ext. 1: 1st. 37/38. Maths Ext. 2: 1st. 40.5/48. Biology: Not sure, I think 3rd. 45/48. Chemistry: 4th. 92%. English Adv/Ext. 1: Just did assessment for Adv, will update. Pretty happy (though I can improve in the sciences..). Though not looking forward to maintaining my maths ranks. :(

Re: Chemistry HSC questions sorted topic-by-topic Holy shit, I fucking love you. Repped.

Re: What ATAR are you aiming for and realistically, what do you think you will get? Aiming for 99.95, but to be realistic 99.5+. I really only have to get over 97ish for my course, since there are two other selection criteria.

Ulysses is full of rich literary techniques, a veritable gold mine really. But unless you can adequately extract the main ideas within it that concern belonging, don't do it. If you like Joyce, try a story from Dubliners. Easier to analyse in terms of belonging, while still influenced heavily...

I was in China a few weeks ago. The amount of censorship is ridiculous. Social networking sites such as Twitter and, recently, Facebook have become inaccessible. There were some riots in Xinjiang some months ago, and the government discovered individuals had joined groups on Facebook to...

Blurb of my copy explains it best: "The shocking thing about the girls was how nearly normal they seemed when their mother let them out for the one and only date of their lives. Twenty years on, their enigmatic personalities are enbalmed in the memories of the boys who worshipped them and who...
