SOS.

Eurghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

This round of assignments is really, really challenging!
FTV1010's major essay is no easier on the MIND.
"Question 1: Textual Analysis: Genre, Form and Style in Television Fictions.
Choose one of the episodes of a television fictional program shown in weeks 2-6 that made you think and feel strongly about one of the following social categories or issues: gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, violence, family, community, or childhood. Your discussion of this episode (and, if you like, the series as a whole), should analyse how relevant textual aspects of this episode (such as genre, narrative form, visual style, sound, etc.) help to influence the viewer's emotional response to the action/story/characters and to shape their understanding of a specific social category and/or issue (such as gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality, violence, family, community, or childhood."
CRAZY.
It's 2.06pm Saturday afternoon already,
and I have approximately 195 words completed
in what is supposed to be a 2300-word essay.
I only have the rest of today and the whole of tomorrow.
How can??!?
I blame it on this:

But for those of you out there with the privilege of having an assignment-void weekend, here is some entertainment:

I've also developed overnight aspirations of wanting to be a tutor at Monash Uni's School of ASS (Arts & Social Sciences) someday. :) That probably means I need to get invited to do an Honours, though. :/ Bah.

Hi Malati -- thanks! I love your blog too! But hey I didn't do those posters hahaha I just stole them off Facebook and the Internet.

Hi Eddie -- sure, I'll definitely help to spread the word. I've sent out some e-mails to people I think may be interested in taking part! :) You could consider setting up a Facebook group or event for the contest as well, that way more people will know about it!
