text 3. poems are usually a strong point for me, but the stress got to me and i panicked, so i didn't know wtf the composer was talking about. i haven'tlooked at it since and i don't think i will.

The short story extract was the worst. Other than that, the texts were okay. I think I might have rambled on a bit in the last question, because then I went overtime for section 1.

I thought the reference to Darwin was when he mentioned something about 'the fittest survive', because I think he was talking about the Galapagos Islands or some shit.
I pretty much didn't like it.
And yeah the mother was a nut case. No way in all hell I even got close to 15/15.

I would have killed myself if I went overtime on section I, coz I had quite a bit to get down in II and III (so I started with those... so I guess its an impossibility of me running overtime with I? lol).
I finished literally 10 seconds before they told us to stop. Which sucked- no editing. =(

that mother story was annoying . . and the lack of techniques, its like they purposely asked a techniques question for a text thats plain.

The poem
I did not understand it
The structure and the length were a turn off

The first text was useless. Only worth the one mark question it was given.

1 cos it was only worth 1 mark...

ps: stuff u coulda put for 1 mark i think.

feet - walking is one way of travelling when on a journey

map - travel guide blah blah blah

eiffel tower - Paris, France - travelling -> journeying

anyone did anything different?

my favourites were 2 and 4 and they were the ones i used in the last 5 mark question.

that mother was a dirty whore and she can go fuck herself up the ass, letting strangers in her house like a dumbass

apparently that poem was about a magic dog that travelled to Darwin or some shit coz there were cyclones there for some reason, i did not pick up on that

fuck that section:mad1:
