IB camp

ok...heres the rundown
1. camp was really good-even though we spent hours and hours listening to talks and walking up stupid hills in the rain.
2. ahahahaha henry
3. fred (the guy from venezuela) is EXTREMELY into jerry springer
4. the guys were having a pillow fight and damian managed to push gavin right through the wall...the speed in which the guys ran off was really quite amazing
5. making seb laugh can ruin your appetite
6. lauren(one of the 2 IB graduates) was asking us whether we had boys in our room, i said "not yet", then told lauren to tell me if helen (IB coordinator) is coming...next thing i know, helen is asking me what i mean by "not yet"...shit

Oral Dilemma

I can choose any text on any topic in any genre. Help!

I've read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four recently and it was stunningly crafted, profound and deeply moving - i.e. hard to do a great oral on. On the other hand, I could do something like take a well known popular text - The Da Vinci Code, perhaps - and analyse the methods (both good and bad) used in writing it and why it has become widely read. Or there's this other book that I've been reading, Boyhood, which is about the childhood of a boy in South Africa (that we grudually learn to be that of the author). The style of that one is a bit unorthodox and so it might make a good oral from that point of view. But then I'd have to stop labouring through our turgid class novel and finish that one.

Does anyone else have any ideas? Films? Bits of poetry? I really need to decide now...

Assessment!!!

So, what's everyone got?

I have a bloody annoying assignment for specialist which I should really do. It's a week until orals for my English class. I really have to choose my text to analyse (it's so hard to choose when there aren't any restrictions or guidelines). And I need to read my novel for that class too - The Year Of Living Dangerously - it's about the politics of Indonesia in the latter part of the sixties (what a thrilling three-hundred pages!, I bet you're thinking). Nothing in the sciency classes yet, and are we getting something for Italian, Italian people?

I really need to go and work rather than blog about going and working.

N-Day

Well guys, how was it?

My day at home was quite enjoyable I have to say. I unfortunately woke up at 7 as I had intentions of going until Jenny rang up to inform me that neither she or Greta were attending. I couldn't get back to sleep again, so I spent the morning reading Harry Potter and then went online for a while. While my only socilaisation was over MSN, I have no sunburn, my wallet is $7 heavier and I managed to begin contemplating the idea to nearly start thinking about which question I should do for my English essay. Quite a productive day all in all, wouldn't you agree?
