    Does any1 live naked?

    I am naked at most available opportunities. Honestly, just not a fan of clothes. It is awkward sometimes though, beause my house has a lot of windows... also when i get washing of the line. I mean really, who is going to put on clothes, to get the clothes you are going to wear off the line...

    the pill

    An almost irrational fear of STIs? Lol, just got the best image... But, I think you'd be pretty safe if you're just doing it with the one person... also we've all had that cervical cancer vaccination and that protects against most genital warts :uhhuh: which is a plus. Lol, when I was at the...

    the pill

    Yeah there are easier methods I suppose, but I don't like abstinence, I dont really trust condoms and the Implant and Injection are scary coz you can't stop them whenever you want. For me I think the pill is the go, definately need to give it a chance anyway. Appartently going on the pill...

    the pill

    Yeah, I must admit I'm worried about the weight gain thing. I'm happy with my weight and I'm already a 10DD/E so dont think I need much more in the boob department. Also, my mum was telling me that when she was on the pill she got a dark pigment patch on her face (and it went away when she...

    the pill

    Ok thanks. Yeah, I'll see how I go with schoolies, but fingers crossed that everything is just awesome with no side-effects (I can hope can't I?). also, I'm not an excessive drinker or anything, but my 18th is this weekend and then schoolies - so I'll be drinking at least a bit. Do you know if...

    How Have You Changed?

    Wow, what a reflective thread. From the HSC I have learnt that I can achieve more than I ever thought possible. I learnt to think in an essay structure, but also to understand the world much more holistically. I learnt that you can't have everything and need to get your priorities set. Also...

    who took a gamble?

    I am in the same boat as you! I understanding the Germany topic and get it all in broad ideas, but the only thing I actually studied for was totalitarianism - like facts and historians. I love my friends that if the totalitarian question was there I would laugh... I did and so did they (before...

    Wrist/hand damage from exams?

    You're telling me! I went there and expected this awesome diagnosis (like Dr. House style) and instead this guy who wasn't much older than me picked up a textbook from the shelf that said 'The Hand', got a ruler and measured where I said it hurt to my wrist and then told me it was something on...

    Modern Teachers

    My modern teacher was not more enthusiastic than other subjects. She had to go on some excursion today though, which was a bummer. Our english department is the most enthused, got to love the crazy english teachers.

    Effects of the tanks

    I was really thrown by this. I thought that the WW1 short answer questions were supposed to be 'gimme' questions, but yeah the trench thing was hard. I said: *destructive to moral of opposition *Threating and forces enemy to 'leave their post' *Physical damage by machine guns Really hope...

    What will they ask this year?

    Hey all, just wondering what you think the BoS will be asking for 2008. I do crime fiction and I'm thinking a question relating to justice for the critical (because the syllabus is changing next year to focus on this) and hopefully a straight story for the creative. Anyway discuss...

    General Thoughts: Modern History 2008 HSC Exam

    Re: How was modern Exam? Hey, yeah I found that aswell. I did Gorbachev and I focussed mainly on his background and context. I don't know fi I did it right, I really just wrote a narrative of his life. It was definately not an essay so I'm a little concerned. I actually like part b, but...

    Wrist/hand damage from exams?

    Sorry i can't be as up beat as everyone else, but I have a similar problem. I went crazy doing practice essays in time before the half yearlies and then wrote insane amounts in the exams... I ended up with RSI or tendonitis or something (the doctor I went to handed me a text book and told me to...

    I love BoS this year!

    Didn't seem to have much emphasis on pracs, we didn't have to remember any specifically but rather apply the whole concepts and stuff... which I like. Also there were a fair few longer responses... more than I was expecting.
