I'm not happy with my Whose Reality essay, hoping for a 1, maybe 2 :P But everything else was pretty good.

Nah I'm exaggerating. But I'm not as happy with it as my other essays.

Yeah I didn't do horribly, it's just the emotions getting to me.  :)

lol yeah I wish they'd given us a last name, felt akward to keep referring to him/her (don't know the gender either!) as Sam

For "Sam", I just referred to "him" as "the writer". I didn't know what I would've one otherwise, since we're always told not to use first names.

loved the cartoon...at least it was an interesting one (all others i've done for practise have been boring lol)
both inheritance questions were gay...both were things that weren't really covered in class ???

man i seriously feel so flat after that...i felt so good in there but as soon as i stepped out i was like woaahh....blank blank blank
i liked my language analysis hopefully 8-9 for that
context was okkk, i wrote like catherine deveny, i just said i was on work experience with her...so hoping an 8 for that
look both ways...ok so intro was sweet, but because i spent way too long on language analysis i was really pushing for time during this one. i didnt get to cover everything i wanted. i finished just as the guy said pens down. i dunno what il get for this, maybe a 7
so i hope i can get an a, im glad its over, but yeah, just gotta move on and stop dwelling on it i guess. im just worried it wont get me the ss i want

I wrote on Romulus, My Father. The questions were decent but Look Both Ways had a better question so I do kinda wish I revised that text a lot more. But I felt I did pretty good with Romulus. I talked to my teacher after wards and she said that I had gone in the right direction with the essay.

Encountering conflict was good. It was an easy prompt so I was pretty relived. I felt I didn't do as well on this than in Reading & Responding though. I might have wandered off into the realms of insanity a bit at one point though.

Language analysis was good. Article was decent and straight forward. No complaints there.
2008: english, psychology, media, history revs, methods.

AHH! I just realised I didn't 'tick' the box for which topic I did for text response!!!   (i. or ii.) - I saw it during reading time but I when I got to it during writing time I completely missed it (it was really faintly written right up the top!)

But I did write the topic above my essay?? hahaha hopefully it won't be a big deal? :s
