ZOMG!! You're coming home.. but, err.. your fathah and I are having our "8th" honeymoon.. :wink2: Hope you don't mind the "noise"

 

metaphysical poetry??? :blink:

*packs earplugs*

 

Yes, one of the two schools of poetry from the 17th century, along with cavalier poetry. They're almost opposites: metaphysicals are all about deep emotions and philosophical thinking, and cavaliers are light and satirical.

 

I've only got 500 words down for a 1200 word essay, and I'm already running out of things to say.:naughty:

I'm doing some exam study, but seeing as we have 9 questions, ft 4 of which will be on the exam, its not that hard

I wish all my professors were like yours.:naughty:

YAY ARTS !! Are you really missing home ??

I am; I've been settling in really well, but there still isn't much in the way of familiar faces, and I'm missing the old neighborhood horribly.

Surely you know Arts well enough by now to know that she's as perverted as the rest of them *zhhz*

 

Aww....thanks Roseh.:wub2::naughty:

That's harsh...

 

Even in yr 12 (which was 7 years ago) a pass was 50%... *pats*

But why is that a gift for Rozeh? :naughty:

 

Erm....

Maybe they were talking about how donkeys are also known as asses... or maybe they are asses...

 

:roftl::roftl:

 

'Cause of the quote in my sig, "Je suis un ane". It means I am a donkey.

 

Oh and Nono...did I tell you about the guy in my school who looks like RPattz? :naughty:

A- 90-100+%

B- 80-89%

C-70-79%

I know that at uni it was:

 

Pass 50-64%

Credit 65-74%

Distinction 75-85%

High Distinction 85-100%

 

 

 

At Tafe a distinction is 80% or more... I think!

 

At my uni its

Pass 50-60%

Credit 60%-70%

Distinction 70-80%

High Distinction 80-100%

 

 

I wish all my professors were like yours.:naughty:

 

Do philosophy then :fisch:

 

Seriously, every one of the philosophy teachers I have had has given us the exam questions before the exams. These ones were in the unit study guide, so we've had them from the start of the year.

 

Their theory is that all of the philosophy units cover in depths theories etc, and lots of material, and they would rather we learn certain bits really well, rather than everything basically

I'm sure we did metaphysical poetry in yr 12... is John Donne a metaphysical poet?

 

ya. i believe so. ive nvr gotten below a C- (stupid math teacher who tought us leadership, and left the whole class w/ no knowledge for the final, so we all failed!)

 

That sucks... in the HSC (the last lot of exams before you graduate), I got 59% in maths, 67 in English, RE was 60%, Biology was 72%, Geography was about 74% and Drama was 72% as well (I think)... I was quite pleased with that...

That sucks... my parents wanted me to pass...

 

 

Do your parents realise that you're only human???

 

There have been people who have commited suicide before the HSC because they put too much pressure on themselves and stressed themselves out..

 

 

 

I'm a teacher too... even though I don't have kids, if I did I would expect them to do as well as they could and to try... perfection is impossible...
