    Indonesian Thread for 2009

    For me, it's keeping to the right register. I am forever having to stop myself from saying "Aku" in front of the teacher. That's because part of my study technique includes reading Twilight or Harry Potter in Bahasa (I got them in Bali, and we have the whole Twilight series in our library) which...

    limitations to the short story?

    I believe for the Ex2 MW Short story the limit it up to 8000 words, if I'm right (YR 11 student, planning to do EE2 next year) - I can't seem to find the rules, and I've looked EVERYWHERE... But I've found clues here and there so 8000 is my best bet. I think the minimum is like 6000. Not sure...

    Depression and the HSC - how do you cope?

    I think that whether the depression is DUE to HSC or DURING the HSC is important - Due to HSC - it's mainly going to be full of worries about marks, not getting UAI/job you want, losing contact due to studying, ect. Once the HSC is over, it would (in theory) be easier to recover from (note...

    Workload of Yr10 vs Yr11 Vs Yr12 vs Uni?

    More to the point is how well you can remember things / how fast you are with homework. So obviously, if you're not too crash hot, you should spend more time - but if you are good, you still should be doing study anyway! Anybody who has been through year ten will tell you that it doesn't...

    The World Communicates - Or does it?

    I am going crazy out of my mind because for my first Year 11 Physics assessment task, I have been set an impossible problem: Identify an area of current research on the application (technology) of your choice, naming the Australian Scientist invovled, the advancement in the technology realised...

    English Short Story - Poll

    Kathy arrived home clutching her prize... A really awful story (it could have been written by a 12 year old, it was so soppy and fluffy and bleurgh) about a girl bringing home a baby parrot. Her dad thinks she shouldn't have it because she knows nothing but caves to Kathy's cuteness...

    Age/Gender of Supervisors

    A bunch of middle-aged/ ladies (I think there were 4-5) and a guy over 60. My whole year reckons that the Head Supervisor is actually our canteen lady... they look and sound exactly the SAME. Of course I know it's supposed be someone from outside the school and stuff... but seriously... she...

    7120 or 2071? geo sc question

    My teacher always says : "Lattitude goes up and down, longitude goes 'round and 'round." And if ur still confused, remember how we talk bout compasses. Eg. "I was sound east." You don't say "I was east of south." Coz that sounds funny. The north /south bit comes first coz it tells you the...
