    SMH article on how shit is HSC English

    Yeah, I think you're right in regards to the 'broader' techniques, but the issue with that is that once again, if you say 'Shelley uses the epistolary form to...' it's all well and good, except they expect you to QUOTE the form, which is, of course, ridiculous. For films, it's better, in that...

    SMH article on how shit is HSC English

    To be honest, I think the best part of english advanced is the creative writing because it's the only part where you needn't regurgitate techniques. I think that's the simple pinpoint problem with HSC english: Techniques. We twist meaning into them that simply doesn't exist. More often than...

    Belonging - 2 supp texts okay!

    What will be this years band 6 be

    Hah, it's so strange, I wrote about elderly people and so did other people I spoke to, totally unprompted! By the way, why would you give more funds to age care if there were fewer aged people?

    SOR I - Section 3! YOUR THOUGHTS

    Romanticism Essay - How are you structuring it? (Thematic or Text by Text)

    I've been writing a practise thematic today, and it's going swel, but I'm almost finished when I realised that the question was 'evaluate this statement in relation to your texts'. In questions such as this, and other including "Romanticism is typified by the search for meaning through...

    Romanticism Essay - How are you structuring it? (Thematic or Text by Text)

    I private messaged you, so have a glance there if you can... Haw, I love Coleridge too (I feel like I'm violating Kubla Khan when I write about it), it's just annoying have to do two poems and only one novel with the same amount of emphasis...
