I'm writing my extended essay for ToK on Josie Rourke's 2011 production of Much Ado about Nothing, the one with David Tennant and Catherine Tate
Point is, for those who have watched it or seen clips of it, what most stands out to you? What are your favourite aspects of the production?

Review of each IB class as an international baccalaureate diploma haver (IB is just AP but more european)
HL English - One of the less stressful classes. I like reading and writing, I remember finishing assignments earlier than expected. I got a 5
Oral exam - Did this in junior year, I did it on V for Vendetta (the movie) and Small Gods by Terry Pratchett because I was smoking fucking crack apparently
Paper - I barely remember this one, I think I did it on Ajax. Easy
Exams - Easy shit. I even had time to draw on the back
HL History - Having a good teacher helped. Not caring about WW1 did not help. I got a 5
Paper - Actual garbage. Worst thing I've ever written. Wrote it in junior year then had to edit it a year later and it was so bad
Exams - More stressful than the english ones, my hand fucking hurt, still had time to draw on the back because I'm the goat
SL Biology - Yayy :3 aminals and cell :3 slime :3 (I got a 5)
Paper - did it on slime mold hehe. Make sure you have your plan together early on in this assignment in case you need to order materials
Exams - If you make up enough things about science you might accidentally stumble into the right answer!
SL Math - I'm one of those sick fucks who like math. If you're a normal person then I'd consider getting a tutor to lessen the stress. I got a 5
Paper - finished this in like 2 days easy
Exam - Literally fuck my entire life
HL Theatre - If you're willing to embarrass yourself, lie, cheat, and steal, then this is an easy HL class. I got a 5
Papers - there's no exam for this class, only papers and recorded performances. The directors notebook was fun (didn't require any acting, I could draw pretty pictures). The research project was ok, make sure that your subject has more than one source describing it (I did mine on Kabuki theater so pretty easy). The group project... I don't want to think about that. The solo project was almost fun I got to writhe on the floor like a worm.
SL Spanish - literal dante's inferno type journey. I got a 4
Oral exam - on GOD don't be autistic
Exams - If I had a gun I'd kill myself
Extended Essay - don't forget to have fun and be yourself :) I got a D. If I could pass with that dogshit essay then SO CAN YOU!!
CAS - If you're bad at lying on IB assignments at this point I don't know how to help you. I actually don't know if they grade this? I'm not checking
CAS project - Make sure to do this completely last minute ok? :3
CAS presentation? - The thing you record all your CAS stuff on. People say that the Service part was the most difficult but that was easy for me since my town has a lot of volunteer opportunities, yours does too if you look hard enough. I had trouble on the Active because I do not go outside.
Ok I think that's everything but just make sure that you get deeply invested into a new video game two weeks before the exam this step is crucial also make sure you get into a college that only accepts 45 of your IB credits even though you got 55 LITERALLY KILL YOURSELF WESTERN WASHINGTON SUCK MY BALLS

right so my bio class has been doing an ecology unit for over 2 months but like. my teacher has not taught us anything that's actually IN the syllabus and therefore on my THURSDAY exam and guys. guys i am fucked. he just talks about random case studies which are interesting but teach us nothing. i have been so busy + sick that i haven't been able to consistently study using the syllabus textbook so i don't know if i just keep trying to learn everything this week or if i spend my energy on the few things we did cover?? keeping in mind that ib questions sound so difficult and unrelated for no reason + i have to revise literally everything else i've learnt this year in both bio hl and history hl + math ai sl but i prolly won't do much for the math

Eye color and color perception
Hello, I need more data points for my ib bio IA research and it would be wonderful if people fill out the form below
The control is age, so anyone between the ages of 13 to 19.
The experiment looks at the effect of eye color on color perception, and there are 2 types of tests that you'll be taking.
It takes around 7 minutes depending on how fast you can match the colors. Thanks and have a nice day:)

theory of knowledge mroe like theory of NOledge
i understand the value of reflecting on your learning and learning from past experiences but i am so so SO tired of writing reflections! the reflection portion of ib coursework is just as daunting as the actual assessments. you know what i think about after writing a 1600 word essay? i thinka bout how tired i am and how much i want to punt myself into the blazing sun. what did i learn from this experience? that i dont wanna do this anymore. how has this experience allowed me to learn more about TOK concepts, and changed my conception of what knowledge is and how we interact with it? it made me realize that epistemiology is nOT for me because ive been going circles trying to find ways to talk about knowing itself, and not hte content of knowledge, and articulating my thoughts is hard. tok stands for nothign but To Ouat eKstent am i able to hold on. hmmmmmMMmmm. i hate essays so much. who decided that monday first period tok was a good thing? im going to go to the ib headquarters and start crying. you want me to talk about custodians of knowledge? well you better find yourself some custodians to mop away my tears lest they crumble the foundation of your building. hurricane crying attack. lay thine eyes upon my crumbled, disintegrating form.
IB DP MORE LIKE I BE SLEEPING
