Thanks I've gotten that a lot
I had Maths Extension 2 before as well but I dropped it because I couldn't get used to the morning classes and my teacher refused to move it to afternoons :P

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory)
I am in Year 8 right now. I am studying the basic compulsory subjects- English, LOTE (Italian and Mandarin Chinese), Mathematics, PESH, History, Geography, Art, Food Technology, Information and Communication Technology, Wood Technology, and Science.
2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory)
Every Marvel movie ever. They are so popular in my school and i frankly can't feel the same way. They are absolutely ridiculous, not just because of how unrealistic they are. I understand that they mainly depict supernatural forces and superheroes, etc... But I think that such concepts are a waste of time. I mean, let's take SpiderMan 2 as an example. Toby Macguire looked so stupid, and the fact that they actors were taking their characters seriously makes me crack up.
3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory).
I would use a flame-thrower. In my opinion, zombies would be able to handle bullets, bruises and cuts. They're tissue is already dead. The flame-thrower shall physically burn them, so whilst they may not feel pain, they're limbs shall be rendered useless. It would also allow me to stay away from them whilst i eradicate them.
4. Who do you want to be as a person, what do you want to achieve? (Optional)
I wish to be at a point in life in which everything around me is stable. I want to experience Euphoria. I hope for my own apartment in the city, by the hospital i wish to work at. I hope to have left a university with a PhD in Medical Science, and to have provided myself with a pleasant acquaintance at home.
5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional).
Well, my life hasn't been too great. I am the child of a single, unemployed mother in a small house with an intellectually disabled brother. My education is the only thing to look forward to. I had quite a decent life previously, but recent events involving moving states, my father, and financial issues, it is quite unpleasant at the moment. I don't know what to say i guess lol. I like pizza??

Welcome to the forums! You've got some sophisticated goals and fantastic passions, especially given the stage of your education you are at. I hope we can be a great support network for you academically (and otherwise) as you move into higher years! :)

Ps - I also like pizza! :)

Can I just ask what PESH is? I scoured the depths of the internet and only found this.. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Pesh

Otherwise, you'll love it here :) Welcome my friend.

Felt the same. Waking up at 6.30am and getting 5 hours sleep a night is definitely not good before a 4u lesson. I'm lucky to of sat the accelerated course giving me 4 free periods a week, 2 of which are 4u now :)

OK, I'm sure my answer will get drowned by the multitude of pages on this post but here we go anyways.

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects? (Mandatory)
Year 12, with English Standard, Maths 2-Unit, Business Studies, Engineering Studies and SDD

2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification. (Mandatory)
I don't watch that many movies because I'm too busy studying and/or playing video games. I'm sorry...

3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice? (Mandatory).
I would like to wield a huge 2 handed sword one day. This is my chance. I probably won't be able to lift it though

4. Who do you want to be as a person, what do you want to achieve? (Optional)
Getting into uni is my short term goal right now. The only thing I wish for myself is not to get sucked into the monotony of daily life as an adult.

5. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say? (Optional).
I can do it in one word: Procrastination

Thanks for the help

I really like main series Pokemon games, I've been playing since I was 7. Many other Nintendo games also.

For uni, I'm trying to get into an IT course at UTS, they don't look strictly at your atar but it's a scholarship with a 100 percent job rate before students finish the course. There's always other options if I miss that.

Niiiice! Pokemon Emerald was a solid chunk of my childhood ;) that sounds like a great course goal! Best of luck with it; hopefully some of the resources around the forums can be useful for you along the way! ;D

G'day guys,

To introduce myself, I'm currently the Psych and P.E. lecturer/tutor for ATAR Notes, so hopefully you'll be seeing me around the forums a bit more.

1. What year level are you in right now, and what are your subjects?
I'm currently in second-year uni, studying Journalism. In Year 12, which I did in 2015, I studied Psych, P.E., Methods, English, Physics and HHD - one of the strangest mixes of subjects, I know!

2. What movie do you most passionately hate? Provide justification.
The worst movie I've ever seen would have to be Noah. I can't even bring myself to relive it, so I'll move on.

3. In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice?
I'm right into dystopian and apocalyptic novels, so I think I'd have to arm myself with a crossbow in a zombie apocalypse, so I could kill from long range. Although a sword would be cool, I wouldn't want to get zombie blood all over my fashionable ATAR Notes T-Shirt.

4. If you had to summarise your life in a paragraph, what would you say?
No idea, so just like most of my essays, it'd probably be filled with a lot of fluff.

Brenden and Joseph41, I hope you're proud of me!
