Heh - it'd be awesome to choose.jazzbaby said:well we got to choose.....
i chose metamorphosis
True that. Our english teacher even told us that our school chose relationships to help us with Belonging.bored of sc said:Every school is trying to get as close to belonging as possible without actually doing it. We were going to do "journey towards indentity". But instead we are doing identity.
... I love Shakespeare, but Othello sucked balls. Looking forward to next year though - we're doing Hamlet and it's my favourite ever. Might have something to do with Brendan Cowell's performance of it in the bell shakespeare performace of it, but oh well...x.Exhaust.x said:Personal Journeys, and soon, we'll be starting Othello!. I heard it's really really good and sad at the end.

I don't think they believe the 09ers in your school would be the 'smartest bunch of english students' because you have already studied some prescribed HSC texts (the prescribed list was not published until about this time last year).bored of sc said:I'm pretty sure our english department think us 09ers are the smartest bunch of english students cause we have already done like 5 HSC texts durings years 8-10.

I think they expect your cohort to do well because coincidentally many of your past texts align with the HSC texts.
I'm not sure if that's a good thing
It also can mean that your cohort becomes complacent and/or bored (of hsc lulz cwotididthere) and of your texts as you have previously analysed it, so make sure you keep at it !
edit: yes, found out all the hsc texts of my 09 students so far, looks like it will be a fun year
We're also going to do Hamlet. I wish I was looking forward to next year...jessiminica said:... I love Shakespeare, but Othello sucked balls.
