okay i'm like stressing out now with all this homework and all but i want to know what all you guys have done in prep for next year.

Okay so for:
english i've read the crucible and the secret river. I will soon watch citizen kane and hopefully read some of paul kelly's lyrics before school starts. Although i am starting to read the secret river again and this time taking a bit of notes

methods I've started plynomials and that is all. Roughly 3 pages of questions.

specialist started complex number, roughly 2 pages of questions.

chemistry am nothing really. Going to start and finish chapter 1 soon.

so anyway what have you guys done so far and do you think this is a little tedious for this time of the year?

Not as much as I should've done, and not as much as you guys :S

English - Read the Kite Runner, answered a few set questions on Look Both Ways

Still yet to touch my maths, lote, or pysch books.
