1 Down 4 To Go... 5 If You Count JLPT

Haven't blogged for a little while. Was supposed to refrain from blogging until after the exams but I am super sian of studying Japanese Marketing now.

Haven't told you guys what happened during my American Law exam have I?

At first it was all good. I wasn't even nervous when I went in. And when I looked at the questions I kinda knew immediately which ones I wanted to do and sort of knew which reading materials to use for it. Basically I knew what the damned questions wanted. Then as I was about to start writing, my stomach decided to have a horrendous stomachache so I had to sign out to go the the toilet. I have no idea what gave me diarrhea that morning but I lost 30min that day and ended up writing only 1 1/2 essays instead of 2. So pissed. The one exam that I cld've done quite ok in and I had to have diarrhea. Sucks.

Then on Sunday was my flamenco exam. Screwed that up big time too. Went in relatively calm but the moment I made one mis-step I tensed up and everything went downhill from there. Bet you the examiner couldn't hear my palleos. Saw her writing fervently during my palleos second exercise. Worst was the syllabus dance. Was ok ok ok, then at the last 1/4 of the dance, missed a bar and came in late. Dammit. Rose, Tania and Nekoweenie kept saying it's ok coz at least I still managed to keep to the beat and still ended properly. But I felt so bad... Tania tried as much as possible to help me catch up after missing 6 weeks. And Angel had such high hopes for my class. And I DID practice at home... I actually managed to do it about 90% perfect in the revision classes... But come to the crunch and BOOM. 50% performance. Sucks...

Sigh.. Next paper on Saturday... Sian.. Dun wanna study. Bah.
