Popolo January 2008
Love the first 2 scans below so much~ the colour of the pictures in general~

After a tiring week of working and studying… It is over!! Yatta!!

1) Kanji/Vocab wa kantan deshita. I think this is my only chance ever of scoring full marks. I checked through the paper thrice and hopefully I din make any careless mistakes.

2) Listening Compre was as expected, totemo muzukashikatta, aka a total disaster!! I think it’s more difficult than last year’s which was the only preparation I had coz I was stingy and only bought the 2006 book hahahaha… For the 2006 paper, at least I had 13 out of 17 questions correct. Today, I’m only confident of.. erm… 3? Hahahahahaha… Even the pictures section was difficult ne… Whatever sound that came out from the player totally flew pass my head, my ears were laggy and couldn’t catch whatever the onna no hito or otoko no hito were saying! Needless to say, the non-picture section was even worse! *bleh* I’ll not be surprised if I get zero for this paper lol~

3) Grammar was… okay la. There were about 5 questions which I weren’t really sure, mainly the particles! 2 questions left me debating for the longest time. I checked through the paper twice, and spent the rest of the time deciding “3 or 4″ and “2 or 4″~ I kept changing my answers, but ended up with “3″ and “2″ hahahahahaha… Now got to see my luck…

After the test, we rushed from Changi to Orchard for class and I totally switched off for those 3 hours of more nihongo! Managed to squeeze in the time to eat a McChicken Burger during the 10 min break. And Sensei asked me a question “What do you do before you go to Japan?”, and guess what I heard? “What do you do before you go to Japanese class?” Not sure which of my ears heard those extra “-ese class”, so I blurly answered “gohan o tabemasu”… which is of course… a ridiculous answer! I felt like slapping myself after I realised my folly.

And since I’ll miss my mid-term test on 12/23, I’ve decided to take an individual test. I think I’m done for lol. Do you think I’ll be able to study after Christmas? Hahaha…. Moreover, Sensei said again today, that of all the intermediate levels, this I2 mid-term test is the ichiban most muzukashii one… I hope she’s lying lol~

Dun think i can get a lot of rest deshou… It’s only 3 weeks away…
