Oral...

Yesterday, we had our Prelim oral examinations. Firstly, I had my mother tongue oral exams first.

The text for reading is about Thomas Edison, saying he always thinks and wonders why. As for the picture, it was about sports day. Some students are running on the track, one girl is doing standing broad jump. And there is a boy injured. The nurse was attending to him. On the running track, a boy had fell down. The teacher saw it and was shock. Two boys was laughing at him. At the side of the track, a teacher was video-ing the students running. On the spectators seats, there were some cheerleaders cheering for them.

When I read, I tend to pause for a while. Oh gosh. There goes my 20 marks. During SA1 Mother tongue exams, my tester was Mdm Min. She said that I tend to read quite fast. Hence, when I stopped for a little little while because of some errors, it is quite obvious. If I were to read slower, it would be almost no mistake at all.

This time round, my tester was Miss Seah. When I was practising, I told myself not to read too fast. However, due to nervousness, when it was my turn to read to her, I felt I was reading very fast. Even she herself also said I was too fast. She could even sense that I was very jin zhang(nervous). Oh my, this is very bad. Not only for my reading, my picture was fast too.

Before it was my turn to be tested, I told myself to treat her as a friend and just treat it as a chit-chatting session with her. But in the end, it didn't now work. Even when I was waiting, before I saw the text and picture, my heart already began to thump loudly and fast.

"Ya Rui, ni shi bu shi hen jin zhang?" she asked. In english, it means "Ya Rui, are you very nervous?" I answered that I am quite. And she told me that my picture was very fast(jiang tai kuai). Once again, 20 marks gone.

Then, it was conversation. She asked me if I were the guy, who had fell down, what will I do. I said I will climb up and continue to run as the finishing line was just very near. I told her that I will not lie there as this will be wasted. I was in the lead but due to the fall, I decided not to continue, this will be wasted. We have practiced very hard and just because of that fall, I feel that this is not worth it. (Hope this can help me score.)

Next she ask me more questions. After the mother tongue examinations, I realise that she did not ask the scenario that caught our attention the most!! Oh gosh. Will that minus our marks?!

After the mother examinations, I waited outside the toilet with Vanessa, Yue Ying and Adorabelle. In order to prevent us from telling the other group the oral picture, the teachers told us to wait there. As I sat down, many thoughts began to filled my mind. This time round, I felt that I have done so badly. For mother tongue, I feel that oral is one of the easiest components for me to score. At that very moment, I was about on the verge of crying. Adorabelle saw that I was feeling very sad and ask me if I was ok. In my mind, I told myself "My mother tongue oral already like that, my english oral later is a MUST to score. I must gain back the marks!"

When I was waiting outside(the next person who enters the hall is me), my heart was not thumping loudly and fast at all. Everything seems to be so normal.

Soon, it was my turn. I went in, took the paper and started reading. 5 minutes seem to past so fast. When the paper is taken away from me, I began to think of the possible questions.

Have you ever been to the dentist? This was the first question that came to my mind. After so called constucting my speech, I began to tell myself(again), both Miss Seet(me! lol) and Mrs Foo are my friends. I am just having a chit-chatting session with the two teachers.

Few minutes later, it was my turn. I felt that my heart seems like it did not even thump at all. With a broad smile on my face, I greeted the teachers. Thoughout, the feeling was not tense at all. Hahas. Why the feeling is so different?

But, for the picture, I spoke alot of past tense. D: Hope it will not minus too many marks.

Then, it was conversation. Mrs Foo asked me " Are there any things that you are afraid or scared of?" Then I began to answer... blahblahblah.

Soon, it ended and I was quite happy for the good job I had just done. Before I left, Mrs Foo even said I had gave a very good example. Hehe. Aiming for 27 because I feel that my picture was not very good.

From now to the actual PSLE oral, if I am not wrong, there is only about 19 days left. Hope I can improve during these 19 days! Gambateh!!!


CO, CO and CO...

To start off, I would like to ask a question. Why do people only cherish things once it is gone?

Now, it is known that CO had only the Er Hus left. Even the Ruans are gone. The reason is that they could not find any ruan instructor to teach. Upon hearing this news, I had a mixed feeling of shock, disappointed and sad.

Ever since Primary 1, I had already joined CO. It has been my CCA until now, when I am Primary 6. I just can't accept the fact that CO is gone.

On friday night, we had a "concert" going on in our school at night. All the performers had to practice in order to give the best show to the audience. And this particular person (name that person Q), did not not go for practices until the teacher-in-charged of the CCA "forced" Q to go.

In Q's mind, Q thinks that going for practices is usless as Q has to prepare for PSLE this year and thinks that Q should not even perform at all on that particular day.

Upon reflecting on this issue, I felt angry, sad and disappointed. Even Q's CCA gets to perform on that night. What about mine? What about CO? CO does not even have a chance to perform at all. And even for SYF, Q's CCA and the others have a chance to perform to the school befor going for the actual competition. What about CO?

I now feel that CO is currently the most pathetic CCA in Changkat. Now, it only have the Er Hus left. Can it still be counted as an ORCHESTRA???

I really envy those people who can at least go back to their CCA and help to contribute by performing.

Last time, I also used to have the same mindset as Q. We have so many practices when the others only have once per week when we have twice per week. But now, only when it is gone, I start to cherish it. How I wish I can go back to the past...

If time can travel back, I would not even "gen kenny ding zui". If time can travel back, I would have put my heart and soul all on it.

Now, I could only wish that a miracle to happen...
