If |a| = b then a = +/- b :-)

I'd like to take that wink in a suggestive manner... But it's pretty much impossible in this case. *sigh*

You could always try substitutions like x= sqrt(94)sin@ for the first one and x= 2sec@ for the second. Or take out a minus and use x= 2sin@, which might be easier.

:P It would be kinda cutting off your own nose to spite your face though...

Hehe. Better drink up! It'll be legal next year, and there's no fun in that. :P I'm getting through this year by thinking that I'm not the first person to do the HSC. Plenty of people have gone through the tomfoolery of it all before. And some of them have managed to come out normal and well...

Gossssssie! *ahem* Gosford High School.

*does a dance for De Moivre* Woo!

"A small fact:" ... Or at least they were going to be.

I know.

Check out the speaking in the standards packages, your school should have them on its computers, to see what you're aiming for. Also, our teacher gave us a list of some commonly asked questions. I found that really helpful preparing for my yearly. And about the lying... you definitely don't...

I think you've gotta care a little too, about the maths that is.

Yep, that's basically the plan for anyone who wants to do it that way. But I think most of us are pretty happy already.

As late as I may be, we're doing Shipwrecks. Which while it may not be riveting is mostly about corrosion, isn't it? And that's alright by me.

Yay! Physics! ... But to tell you the truth I don't know what option we're doing. I think our teacher was tossing up between astrophysics and quanta to quarks. I think they usually do astrophysics, but he's given us the choice to study whatever we want independantly. Yay! Flexibility!

Wait a second! I have an avatar for this! I'll leave as a pic though. Sorry, it's not adding much to the discussion, but forgive me. It's not everyday something this specific becomes so utterly appropriate. Oh, and I <3 xkcd. :-D
