$2.5k? What? Seriously? What was your major work and why did it cost so much? And I hope you get a band 6 or into Art Express or something.

I spent probably $120 on art (buying canvas and MDF and some of my own paints and pencils which I'm going to end up using after the HSC anyway). Actually probably not even that.

Uh about $6 I guess to get my EX2 major work binded. I'm not counting the ink spent on printing my 5000 drafts of the damn thing, but i'm sure canon profited quite nicely off this.

Suck shit, i've probably spent $20 so far buying lollies for my art film, I have to go get a childs toy and some paper for my ink works but that will probably cost like $100.

A bloke spent about $2000 on his bar at my school. $1000 on timber and the rest on stuff including the accompanying fridge. Funnily enough I'll get just as good a mark and I spent $210 for my woodwork major.

I got a fair amount of stuff for free off my grandfather though and the school supplied sundry items like nails and screws, but even then I don't think i'd have spent over $350. Mine was the cheapest that wasnt a bunch of sticks. Either way, I win.

hahaha i guess its alot for art, see my avatar that's my BOW =D teacher wanted them on shirts so yeah
i spent like a hundred on printing on paper and the other 2400 on tshirts. the shirts itself are like nothing like about 200-300 for 50, but the screen printing is ridculous lol

if you think $2.5k is alot its nothing compared to what some spend for dt. some people spend upto $4-5k from private schools off course
