6 different options for creative writing.
what assumptions on journey have ur composers made?

I think that should have been preety accessible by anyone who had done their study.

We only had one choice of question for creative writing, so i guess that was not the catholic trial??!?!
We had to write a series of journal entries, what i wrote was really cheesy =P

thats such an easy question! our school's was last week and was along the lines of "Journeys are just a source of stress and do not reward those undertaking the journey" From the studying of your text, 1 stimulus text and at least one other text, do you agree with this statement?

It wasn't too hard but much harder than the catholic paper.. i wish we did them.

Our creative was so restrictive:

"I wanted to travel. I wanted to see the world. I wanted to come home."

Pretend you go on a journey in 2007. Write a letter to a close friend about your experiences etc...

It details text type, type of journey, restricts what the journey can be about.. there was no room for creativity at all.

For the record, i went to Japan and became a sumo wrestler.

I thought all the creative writing options were pretty similar. Mine was about a guy getting lost in the middle of Tasmania.

Did he see a stray Tasmanian tiger and get heaps of money for it in the end?

=O

The Catholic Trials was okay. But yes, the last story was a bit 'wtf'-ish. Hated the damn poem. The picture of the boots was crap too. Let's just say I screwed up the first question.

was it the poem about the road?

with something like: "half way on the road of life i got lost in a wood"

i thought it was about having a mid life crisis

there was a stanza or two describing the wood (guessing the mental instability and madness), then you get back on the road (back on with life)

seemed pretty straight forward with the "road of life", I cant see think of any other ways to interpret the poem.

Hahaha, yeah Tasmanian tigers did come into the story, he didn't see one though.

Looks like I wasn't the only one who thought that story was weird. Chinese guy speeds off into the sunset on a little girl's bike. I didn't bother using that one for the long answer question.
