Haha maths is like the only subject that really makes sense to me, and I would struggle to make 90 without it.

HSC 'English', now that is vomit worthy. They would take a ten page essay full of crap over a five page one with a deeper insight and slightly fewer techniques.

thanks Justin..i get it now. I was doing 6^6 thinking u can get 6 dots per square, but yeh I know it's only 2 now. THANKS!! And you should be proud...my bro couldnt asnwer this question :p

BUT i cant agree with "hsc english is vomit worthy". I'd do 10 units of english, if I could! People just enjoy different subjects...

And i dunno if thats true...anyone can write 10 pages of crap, but if it doesn't have substance it's not going to get a good mark. Where are u getting these ideas from? lol Markers would rather a 5 page essay which analyses the texts in terms of techniques rather than a 10 page essay which talks about the plot line of the texts. If u did the 5 page essay and got crappy marks and someone who did the 10 page essay got good marks, then I'd say u got gipped. Hence why I ALWAYS question...my teachers hate me :p

plus it's very hard to write a 10 page essay in 40 mins...you wouldnt be able to understand the writing if that was possible. I do 6-8 pages and my writing is shocking!!

Markers would prefer a ten page list of techniques to a five page in depth analysis was my point.

And no matter how many times I've questioned the english department I have never succeeded in salvaging a single mark.

On a side note my black ink cartridge is fucked up and I'm gonna have to buy a new one instead of just refilling it. Printers suck.

i was indirectly calling you a wanker by implying that your hand rarely wanders from one particular position ie. around your penis. but obviously your mind is not dirty enough to follow my subtly worded insults to their invariably sex-oriented implications, so from now on i shall just call you a nong.

*stomps out.*

Oh I understood that, I just wasn't understanding why you were calling me such a thing.

the mention of your hand presented me with an opportunity. i generally don't need an excuse to insult people. i do love you really.
