soangel Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I got Ds in 2 of my units (which is good) and a withheld in one because they have lost the marks for an assignment/the assignment itself. Going into the uni tomorrow if I have time after seeing a dental surgeon about my teeth in the morning, to try and sort it. I did hand that assignment in, I recall handing it in, and I need to know if I passed the unit or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petra Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 The epitome of grace and elegance, as usual , I always wondered what this position looked like from the back. Now I know . Am hanging out to hear We Are Golden- and I am hoping it gets good airplay here once released. Just today I heard GK on one radio station, and then minutes later BG, so they are definately still supporting him (well, here in Perth anyway!) *instructs Mika to go and play in Perth multiple times in a row * (!!!)

silver Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Nah its all about the wisdom teeth, such fun as always I had problems with my wisdom teeth when they came through as I have quite a small mouth. The two on the upper jaw had to be removed, but they took out other teeth on the bottom jaw to make room. So as I only have two out of four wisdom teeth, does that make me a halfwit?

All mine get to be removed, just have to wait a few weeks apparently. Got another mouth xray today and their sending me a letter with my next appointment which will hopefully be the removal one. My bottom ones are twice as big as my top, does that mean the bottom half of me is smarter? And you'll have 2 more wisdom teeth than me by the time mine are removed, so if your a halfwit what will that make me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet-dreams Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 But NOW I live in an awesome house! Which is where I am right now! But it's 1.30 and I have to sleep at the house I am hous esitting at, which is over an hour drive away! Awesome! What kind of song? I love violins! awesome! Teachers aid thing sounds interesting, I wouldnt want to go back to my high school though, but the again, my high school is full of psychos who are very un-accepting of teachers I always thought i'd stay with my parents till the end of uni, but now i have my own house i'm excitedddd to live on my own Aww!!! Your house looks awesome! Umm, it's sort of a ballad-y thing. It's quite hard to describe but it's called 'The Fox and the Eagle' and it has slow and melancholic verses with a more upbeat chorus. I think my music teacher wants to make the violin part a bit more interesting thought, so I'm getting the new guy in my music class to sort that out (he's the violinist). This may sound odd, but I love my school. The majority of the kids are friendly and all of my teachers are brilliant. However, there are a few teachers that I really dislike but thankfully they teach the younger years. So yeah.. I'd prefer to stay there, with familiar faces and surroundings, than having to go and get a real job. But I shouldn't get ahead of myself, you have to apply and then be selected by the principal.. But I think he is quite fond of me (probably because we are both huge nerds). I can definitely see the appeal of owning your own house. I'd love to have my own space where I can just do whatever I want. But then again, I think I'd probably get scared if I was living on my own. I would probably go around making sure every single door and window was locked at least five times before being able to go to bed. We didn't really get to look at the cars for as long as I would have liked because my Dad was working on the weekend. But we did (as my Dad puts it) have a bit of a squiz. There were two cars that I really liked. One was a little white Proton and the other was a really cute red Volkswagen Beetle. They're both a little expensive, but my Dad said that "we will see". Harry Potter was great! Perhaps lacking a little bit of action at some stages, but overall it was a really well done film. For the first time since he came into them in The Prisoner Of Azkaban, I actually thoroughly enjoyed Michael Gambon's portrayal of Dumbledore. I've always been extremely critical of him because Dumbledore is probably my favourite character within the books and he just really frustrated me with all the over-the-top anger, etc. But I think Gambon pulled him off really excellently in this one. Everything else was great.. Tom Felton really showed the deeper aspects of Malfoy's character, the romance was funny and well done (except for that stupid scene with Harry and Ginny in the room of requirement), Daniel Radcliffe was both serious and hilarious at the right moments and the cave scene, although a little bit shorter than I would have hoped, was brilliantly frightening. And as always, Alan Rickman was amazing as Snape (my other favourite book character). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But good things don't last forever...=| I loved Richard Harris as Dumbledore as well. I wouldn't be too annoyed with Michael Gambon if they had at least tried to keep some continuity between the two portrayals. The two things that annoyed me the most were the pointless changes to the Irish accent and the grey hair and beard. Dumbledore's beard is supposed to be silver! And I know everybody mentions this but the worst moment of all the films so far (even worse than Dan's crying in Prisoner of Azkaban, bless him), is when Gambon's Dumbledore strangled Harry while shouting "DID YOU PUT YOUR NAME IN THE GOBLET OF FIRE?!?!?" Richard Harris was perfect, but it seems, with the sixth film, that Michael Gambon is finally becoming more like the Dumbledore I have in my head. just wanted to say HI... im not from Australia, but Denmark...

Kelzy Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Now, onto what brought me into this thread. I was listening to British radio, and they referred to the country as "Au -strahl- yuh." And I find most Canadians pronounce it "Au-stray-ill-yuh." So I'm curious - how do real live Aussies pronounce it? If I'm trying to impress I'll say "Oz-stray-lee-ahr" If I'm in my bogan mockies I'll just say "us-trayl-yah" And I've PM'd you all. Hi Everyone ... I'm back online .. my nephew had a 41 degree temp and it was because of pneumonia at first and then was told he has glandular fever and needs to get his tonsils out... he was discharged today and is doing better but still sick ... just have to wait to see what happens next ... hope i havent missed much ... xoxox I hope he's feeling better soon. just wanted to say HI... im not from Australia, but Denmark...

bonzaboy Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Hi all, I'm currently up to the usual- procrastinating. Found out yesterday that the second part of my Biology EEI is not due in week three, but Monday week 2. I.e- in two days. Being the sort of person I am, I haven't started it, and have dedicated my day tomorrow to a gymkhana with Bonza. To my credit, I did just do some research, but am currently counteracting that good behaviour by allowing my concentration to lapse and post here. No-one seems to be in here tonight...

And then I couldnt even come up with at least parts of the text of the song WAG reminded me of so that I could google them and I tried checking the threads but it was a bit confusing . THANK YOU!!!

silver Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Let's just hope the whole song is much better than the snippet. When we saw the choir in the vlog, I thought this song was going to be great.
