haha i go to a private catholic school too! they don't make us do SOR though.
Yeah, they make us do either Catholic studies of SOR. You probably have to do some Bible shit though, right?
What school?

Soooo lucky man. I wish my school didn't force us into SOR. I would've chosen another extension :frown2:
I would've done Art, Drama, Software or Japanese.

I'm quite glad I don't go to a religious school because SOR doesn't sound interesting & it limits your choice of subjects. I don't know any government schools in my area offering SOR.

I didn't want to go to a religious school -_- And that was back when I was Catholic.
Now that I'm an atheist it's even worse. I think the school actually made me an atheist by showing my how shit Catholicism is.

Same thing happened to my friend at a Catholic School. I wouldn't be surprised if the school made you an atheist because it seems like Catholic schools are overflowed with religious stuff.

I went to a 'religious' (Anglican) school and they didn't force us into any subjects.

Probably just Catholic schools. Some Catholic schools, to be more correct.

My ideal HSC subjects would be:
MX2, MX1, English (Advanced), Drama, and Chemistry.
I was going to drop Art for HSC because I'm lazy and would've started my Body of Work the night before it was due.

It is very limiting, being forced into a subject.

I initially asked to be put in a catholic school. Now I realise how freaking stupid I was back then, and i'm trying to move to a co-ed public school now.
I liked my Anglican school.

Very homely. Great teachers as well. And... LAPTOPS!
did you get to keep the laptop?

I did music in year 9 and 10 and the teacher is shit. Physics in year 11, same deal. Far out, my school.

I wanted to try out for Hurlstone. My mum wouldn't let me and told me last year that she didn't want me to be disappointed. FUCKING SLUT!!! I fucking beat people that chose not to go after they got in and ones that left our school to go there!

My mum every year said she was going to let me do it and then said "Oh, it was too late when you asked me." And I knew the registrations were open for aaaaaaaages after that.
I'm pretty sure she didn't let me try because my older brother didn't get in from year 6 but in year 4 he made it into the Opportunity Class the next year and I didn't when I did it. But my mum didn't realise I didn't give a shit about no opportunity class, the teacher had me for maffs and she sucked donkey balls.
I wrote like 2 lines every lesson in random boxes on my page and then I drew pictures and played on the computer the rest of the time she was teaching, but when I was in the second bottom class the year before my teacher was actually engaging so I beat her entire class.
I kind of went off on a tangent, but it all comes back to my mother being a stupid cunt.

I go to a catholic school. I don't like SOR, but it's better than Eng. It's a lot easier.

It's pretty fun too if you know your shit
