23 Aug 2012 - Final exam. There were 4 segments - reading, writing, listening and speaking. Needless to say, I was dead worried for the speaking, and I really screwed it up..... ;~;
It was drizzling (it was raining almost everyday during my last week in Seoul) that morning and I vividly remember being the second to reach when I was usually the last few.
We started off with the listening test in our classroom, before moving to a bigger room for the reading & writing tests. Our teacher called us out one by one during the tests, for the speaking test. After the speaking test, you go back to the room to finish up your paper. I was the last one for the speaking test so I waited and waited and waited........ ><
The speaking test was really weird. I expected it to be a conversation kind of thing, but it was really just a Q&A. It was easy, yet I screwed it up. We were given a list of sentence endings (e.g. 입니다, 거예요, etc) and were supposed to answer the questions asked by the teacher using those sentence endings. For example, if the first on the list is 입니다, you answer the first question asked using that. I was quite confused at first, so I made a few mistakes. After my teacher explained that I got to follow the list, I kinda panicked and couldn't even answer simple questions she asked. Wanted to stab myself so badly TnT
After the test, my teacher and I had a chat. She asked if Level 3 was too easy for me, and said she thought I should have gone to Level 4. I said it was manageable; there were a lot of grammar points that I haven't properly learnt so I didn't request to be transferred to a higher level. Anyway, I was flattered and so happy when she told me that hehehe.
Went back to the guesthouse after the exam!
After nua-ing with my sister, we decided to have late lunch at Blanc. It's just a 5min walk from our guesthouse, 2min walk from Hongdae Stn Exit 4!
Pardon my face. Did I mention I was surviving on 3h of sleep everyday that week? Busy completing my homework and revising for the final exam. Oh, and also moving all my stuff from the dorm to the guesthouse!
I can't remember how the food tasted like, but I love the layout of the cafe^^
Headed to Myeongdong after lunch.
Had such a hard time bringing these back....
