Exam prep

My sites suggestions were don't listen to bad advice like the one about the guy who only studies a day before and still gets high marks. Make contact with other in case later on you would like to form a study group (ROFL). Make sure you know all the topics your classes have covered.

Bad advice can lead you to make bad descisions and leave you unprepared. I believe that studying in groups is much more effective and that you learn much faster. When in groups you can always assisst you friends or vice-versa. Making sure you know what to study is important because otherwise you may end up studying irrelevant topics or missing relevant ones.

Peace bruh, church

I believe there are few reasons why boys find fantasy and science fiction more interesting than other genres. One, they are often exciting and full of action. They have interesting story lines that contain things that wouldn't normally be possible. Finally, they have include many twists and turns that aren't expect.

It is for these reasons that I also enjoy fantasy and science fiction. I love the way the story line is always interesting and unexpected. I also think thats the reason that many other people I know enjoy this genre.

poetry

I think that poetry still remains popular after many centuries because it is a great way of expressing yourself. The role poetry plays in my life is a very small one. I rarely hear or read poetry unless it's in the form of song lyrics. I also think that the most popular form of poetry is in song lyrics.

I think think the reason people love poetry so much is because it's a convenient form of entertainment and it comes in many different styles and forms. I personally enjoy poetry in the form of song lyrics because they are usually catchy and meaningful.

The poem Jack and Jill was written by George Freeland in 1697. I still remember this poems over the ages because it has a lot of rhyming and is a very common poem.

I believe that the quotation from the Dead Poets Society means that expressing ourselves with poetry is a natural thing that is very important. I don't think this is true because I believe that music is a more effective way of expressing yourself.

The two common types of poetry that I found were song lyrics and rhymes in television advertisements. I believe that song writers use poetry in their lyrics because it makes the song flow better. The reason television advertisements sometimes use poetry is because it makes the product that they are trying to sell more memorable when it has been intertwined with a catchy slogan.

Did you know?

The clip made me feel interested because of the way it was presented and the music that was played. I found the facts about how large myspace would be if it was a country very interesting. I find it hard to believe that so many people communicate using new technologies these days. No I found all the information believable since so many people use these technologies in society. It makes me think about how lucky we are to have education and technology.

Sports and Drugs

I believe it is wrong to take recreational drugs but if people want to its there own choice as long as theirs lots of help available if they need it, so I believe that if professional sportsmen want to take drugs it should be their own choice, they are people to. I don't think professional sportsmen should be tested for recreational drugs but they should be strongly advised to quit if they take them. I don't htere should be penalties if a person on drugs is caught 'using' but clubs should make sure they get plenty of help if they need it.

BOOK VS MOVIE

Today my task was to write about whether books or movies are better. There are many instances where books are better than movies and many the other way around.

A book I read a while ago called Eragon later became a movie. The book was very good and had plenty of action but was a disappointment in the cinema. They movie had parts of it made up to suit the short viewing time. Another famous book and movie was the Da Vinci Code. The Da Vinci code was a great book and was a much better movie compared to the Eragon movie.

I believe that books are generally better than the movies that are created with them. I would also recommend that if you watch a good movie that was based on a book you should definitely read the book.
