Really Sucked to Year of Wonders, the second prompt was nuts.

I panicked when I read it, I did the first one, but it took a while to get my head around it. Anyone else did Year of Wonders??

Greatness

Get the fuck outta here whoever put forward those prompts for Cosi you VCAA idiot.

SO LIMITING OMG. I picked the second one in reading time and did a rough plan, then got to it in the last hour and realise it COULD NOT BE DONE. So I wrote a shitty terrible TR that I barely finished. 3 shallow as paragraphs, hoping for a super lucky 7-8. Hopefully considering I smashed the other two essays I'm still okay.
So glad i stuck to OTW!! And dw mate you'll be fine!

Yer I also did the first prompt, I had no chance in trying to tackle that second prompt.

Those of you that did YOW topic one what did you write about? What were your topic sentences? :)

Well My first paragrapgh was about how the gowdies had no choice of their uncessecary murder.

My second paragraph was about how Anys unlike like most women villages did have choice in relation to their everyday lives, as she is not bound as a mans chattel. She has her own work, house freedom etc. somthing very few can claim.

My third was aahhhh I think abt how the people of Eyam did get the direct choice of wheter to stay and confine themselves away from the world to contain the plague from spreading, I did mention that Brooks used the Bradfords as a way to divert the idea  that unlike the bradfords most of the villagers choice was decided for them as they had no money or resources to relocate. I did also mention the bit of where they were to go? once other surrounding villages reallised that they came from the plague village. Hence I used Brand and maggie cantwells ordeal.

My fourth paragraph was referring to the little choice that the weak and grieving remaining villagers had little choice but to give into to Joss Bonts grave diggin service.

I didnt get enugh time to Talk about how Joss and Aphra had choice of the conduct they pursued, and I didnt get time to talk of how Anna and Elinor decided to take up the role of the Gowdies, as herbalist.

What did you write??

A friend of mine did the second YOW prompt. She talked about the circular narration, the language Anna uses, the chapter titles...

Personally, I wouldn't have enough to give emphasis to my bodies if I tackled the 2nd prompt.

UGHH so glad its over!

When you're blshan, why would you want to be anyone else?
so this blshan matches thushan ?
that is quite epic.
im assuming he's like China's version of thushan?


Nah I think he's trying to troll Thushan. As in the bl in his name stands for bad luck so blshan is bad luck thusHAn?

LOL I DON'T KNOW!

lololol au contraire, just like thushan, he makes zero attempt to hide his identity. These smart kids don't need to hide nothin' from us. Thought I'd wash away the wave of speculation, even though it's pretty funny to watch.
Just clearing things up, no i am not trolling thushan, those are my initials. And just putting it out there, im better than thushan

i did YOW first topic, just said that their choices were limited by lack of medical knowledge and their social class / financial status (Bradfords could leave but the other member of the town were bound due to their lack of means to leave) while their destinies were sealed, they did have a choice as to the way in which they responded to the fear mompellions helping benifiting lives of others. Jos and Aphra chose to make personal gains

FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSS
Im not the only one that wrote shit like that!!!
I walked in there with specific examples to use about the language and nature to use for a topic just like that 2nd one.
Now I just have to see if I've pulled it off or not.

Yeah, Year of Wonders was like FML...

I wrote on the second one though - discussed how the texture is structured in media res, the metastructural elements of chapter titles and their contribution to the notion of seasons, and how these factors coalesce into providing a sense of temporal time. And some other stuff. Just happy its over. Hoping for a 50/60 on the exam..
