試験

I've just had my first two exams for the Autumn semester. The first was a Japanese speaking test and it went OK, even though I've never done a speaking test before. We were given a short storyboard and a little time to prepare and then we had five minutes to fill. I only actually spoke for three, but the teachers seemed OK with that. I tried to throw in some comedy as well, and my teachers were laughing by the end. But maybe that was just my incorrect conjugations?

The second exam was on the Japanese economy, and that went OK too, whilst breaking a record for my longest exam ever. It was originally meant to be three hours which is quite enough, but there was a fire alarm about two hours in, which meant I had a five minute break outside in the cold, but an extra half an hour added on at the end.

Modern Japanese history tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Sounds crazy! Think you did alright then?

Nice job with the comedy, must be hard to be humorous in another language due to differences in sentence structures and such.

Good luck with the rest!
