    Ewwwwww, Joseph Fiennes. He's sooo creepy looking and too skinny. Urgh. Put Orlando Bloom in his place anyday!

    Ew, I can't stand Orlando Bloom, he's too poncey even for my taste. Joseph Fiennes, on the other hand....

    Grace, seeing as you have As at AS (that was you, right?) I was wondering if you had any tips for the Russia synoptic? I'm just getting worse the more practice I do, a fresh perspective might be a nice idea.
    hey sorry didn't realise this thread had three pages so only jus got ya post. i find russian history hard to be honest. I got an A at AS but A2 is much harder!

    I suggest to read the russia thread its brilliant, which i sure you have. Gather all past questions and put those questions under each theme...do as many past questions as u can and be precise.

    They're both wonderful (Though if push came to shove I'd probably *have* to choose Johnny Depp over them both...)

    Hahaha! Didn't used to like Johnny Depp but I am warming to him after watching Pirates of the Caribbean again. I just think Joseph Fiennes is a leel too old.

    Joseph Fiennes is amazing, and he's a really good actor. And I've seen him live *smug*

    Heh, I thought you meant a different one. The Russia thread that I started ended up being me posting all of my work and no-one commenting, so I just stopped. Wasn't helping me much and I was panicking more.

    If anyone has questions about US history, the Russian revolution & the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict I can probably help with that as well as I know a bit about the Russian Revolution and quite a reasonable amount about US history (mainly 20th century) and the Arab-Israeli conflict.
