Oral today was a disaster. The passage was pretty alright i guess, but i still stumbled once or twice and subconciously turned some words into something else. I don't know but after my Mid Year orals and what Roger said to me about my reading ("near perfect"), i guess it's alright. And like what he said about my picture description, in not so many words, lousy, i really screwed it up. I could talk about the picture for a while, then i started getting prompted again and again and fucking again. And all i answered was just one-liners, i wanted to talk somemore BUT, i didn't have anything else to say. Stupid shit. So reading's okay, picture's not, all i've got left to save my ass is the conversation. An occasion where I attended a speech. First thing that came to my mind was the Annual Parade and the speech give by that army guy. I basically crapped my way through and at the same time getting quite a few prompts. But at least this time i replied with a little more that a sentence. So after a while, they come up with another conversation topic. Something about people playing a joke on you and how you would feel. Once again i used whatever creativity i had to cook up some shit to tell them and of course, many prompts. The prompts were just killing me. Everytime they gave another one i felt even more shittier.
Anyways, after the oral i met victor, joseph and wei xiang in the canteen. So i asked them about the conversation, and it happened that all of them only had to answer ONE conversation topic, whereas i had to answer TWO. It really scared me thinking that maybe i did so badly for the first topic that they gave me the second one as a lifeline to save my butt, like what salman told me in the bus later on. But the fact that they had to give me a second topic is really bad. I thought i was the only one but seems that timo also had to answer both. At least that took a little weight off my shoulders. Then while talking to kel, i told her about my oral and she said that they give second conversation topics because they didn't feel like they have properly assessed you yet so they give you another topic. I don't know, i hope that's the real reason. Maybe i was just too good. (Yea right.)
Was supposed to play sepak takraw after school today. The annual inter-CCA competition which we won third placing two years ago and fourth last year. But because of the stupid oral exam i couldn't play. NCC (Land) played 4 games and won all 4. What more can you ask? Next day of competition is this coming Thursday. So i guess i won't be really going all out during PE that day, or not i'd be to shagged to play after school.
I don't really have the inspiration now to write anything more, so i'll write other stuff another day.
