Nani surun da yo~
~Oh my goodness gracious.~
Have I mentioned how I absolute loathe trials and tribulations? While the whole of ACJC and practically the whole world was celebrating Founder's Day, I endured three hours of hellish purgatory in LT 14 - who knew Japanese exams took so long?
In any case, the shock came during the Listening Comprehension part:
Sensei: Anou... mina-san, time for listening part. Listen carefully to the sound clips, kiitekudasai i yo!
YK: woah, nowadays exams use windows media player to play their listening sound clips!
And you wouldn't believe the frequency of those sound waves I saw through the visualization on the windows media player...
Sound clip: Please note down the telephone number as mentioned in the following conversation - anou... sumimasen, Tan-san no denwa bango wa nan ban desu ka? Ee-to, kyu-hachi-nana-yon no roku-go-san-roku desu.
YK: (staring at the sound clip) what the heck! He said the number in two second?!?!?!?!
Oh well. Lucky I got it.
But then... I couldn't get the last one:
Sound clip: (in English, for your convenience) what is today if three days after the day before yesterday two days ago was one day after Monday?
YK: what the heck! I can't even get that if you said that in English lah! Oh man...
What the heck is Takeda Sensei thinking? I'm a Singaporean!!
Oh well. But I think I got 47/50, so not that bad! Hopefully it's an A!
I hope.
Oh well, Happy Founder's Day!
