Okay, this is awesome.
I really love this skin.
ANYWAY, about EL Oral.
I took my oral on 19 Aug.
The topic was Sports, for those people who aren't aware.
We must thank Ravishing for aiding us. :D
017 people should know what was going on then. HAHA.
Only 4 chances though.
Gosh. It was such a horrible turn of events.
Our examiners were supposed to be this Indian lady and this pregnant lady.
Well they seemed to be quite reasonable, but horror of horrors, the pregnant lady didn't turn up! :o
So we got a replacement teacher - from ACS, supposedly.
OKAY LET ME TELL YOU THAT THAT WAS THE BIGGEST MISMATCH EVER.
I ACTUALLY SAW THIS REPLACEMENT TEACHER BEFORE!
HE WAS THE ONE WHO TOOK US FOR CHI LC - and that wasn't too great an experience.
Seriously, the replacement invigilator looked like the next Calcium Barium Lead.
He was sweating like crap okay.
I'll tell you that most of us in 017 decided to walk towards the left, where the lady was sitting.
So I went to the lady too.
Awesome, I greeted them and she told me to begin reading even before I could touch the damn chair.
Well whatever, I still began reading after a while.
I made a mistake at the 3rd paragraph, and stupidly, I apologised to those two.
What a screw up.
I could tell they were probably bored out of their wits.
So anyway when we got to Picture Discussion, I was practically telling them anything I thought of.
AND I'M TELLING YOU HE WASNT LISTENING!
He was the one asking the questions, so HE should be listening more attentively!
The Indian lady was politely smiling and nodding her head, so I made eye contact with her most of the time and smiled.
Okay well finally, that guy looked up to ask me a question, "So, what do you think happened before ..."
When I looked up and stared at him he totally dropped his gaze lah.
I MEAN, EXCUSE ME, COULDN'T YOU FINISH THE DAMN QUESTION AND AT LEAST MAKE SOME EYE CONTACT!
AND HELLO, I JUST RELATED TO YOU WHAT I THOUGHT HAD GONE ON BEFORE THAT!
"I guess a football match has just ended because in the background there is a team that is walking back to the stands. This is imminent because they are all wearing jerseys.."
and the reply to his question after that was
"
Like I said before...etc."
Okay so maybe my answer when he asked that wasn't very nice.
BUT YOU COULD LISTEN TO ME RIGHT!
WELL WHATEVER D<
He cut me off halfway anyway.
So moving to conversation.
"Have you ever been wrong about something?" (Or something along those lines)
Oh yes I have, absolutely! Etcetcetc. So I'd like to share what I've learnt -
"Do you believe that it is hard for people to admit their mistakes?"
Of course! If one is in a leadership position, it'd be hard to admit... etcetcetc. I personally have been in such a situation -
"Do you think that anyone can be good at sports?"
Of course! Natural ability does not count for anything if no effort - which should most ideally be derived from passion - is put in... etccetcetc. There are some people who have been practicing without much natural talent and -
"Do you think it is proper to say that boys are better than girls at sports?"
(Okay I had a pretty violent reaction to this one.)
Actually I believe this is an extremely unjust statement. Nothing is proven about true dominance between the sexes ... etcetcetc. And I feel that it cannot be easily -
"Thank you, you may go."
EH WTF.
OKAY THAT WAS SO NOT FAIR D:
I HAD SO MUCH MORE CRAP TO SAY!
GEEZ D<
I hope this song will guide you home.
