Hi guys, Recently I got into shoe polishing but I've got these boots which are extremely worn and have a lot of small dents and scuffs on them. I managed to get a good shine on them using kiwi parade gloss, but is it possible still to achieve a mirror-like shine (despite the toe particularly...

Cheers for the answers guys! It didn't hurt much at all and oddly enough, watching my blood flow through the tube into the bag was very calming.

Nah it's just that there's obviously more than one type of needle so some would vary in "pain". E.g. A vaccination may be different to an IV insertion

Thanks for the helpful insight guys!

Hi guys, I'm planning on donating blood next week at the Australian Red Cross and I was wondering if anyone here knows what it's like? On a scale how painful is the process? Does the initial jab hurt when they insert the needle? Cheers guys!

So story is, Hurlstone Agricultural High School has introduced new methods of assessing students along with the "conventional exams". Mark Latham, a former student ('78) at this school and past politician has something to say about this; which he wrote in a letter handed out to the parent and...

Animal Farm- George Orwell Surprisingly dark story.

Hi there 2B, welcome to BoS! For your application for Hurlstone, I recommend sending in your half-yearly report that you should've received recently last term and if you like, your yearly report from last year. NAPLAN and ESSA results would also be good to add in as well as any other...

Planning on doing the following subjects next year: English Advanced Maths 2U Maths Extension 1 Physics Chemistry Earth and Environmental Geography (Possible but not certain) Are there any tips and advice or perhaps things should be aware of for the above? And, this is probably a...

Two boarders, a year 8 guy and year 10 girl got caught having sex and there were alcohol issues with a group of boys (also boarders). At my old school, nude leaks became a common thing and there were so many rumors spread about a girl having an STD from a guy in her grade.

I'd say a bit of both actually, but for me I can honestly say that the experience matters more than the money.

As the title says, how many hours should a high school student allow for a part-time job? I'm currently in Year 10 and I do have a few hours (5-8) of extra-curricular activities that I participate in. What would your recommended number of hours per week be? Should I even work at this stage...
