Dreadful Oral Examination

4 Sc 1 students returned to school despite the PMR examination for the english oral test . PMR candidates were so tensed like us last year and it could be seen ,obviously , judging from their face expression. Good students would surely bring a book along with them . As for students who did not do so, are theyjust being too confident or... ?

Well most of the 4 Sc 1were as panick as the candidates though we are not the ones who sit for the PMR exam , but the dreadful oral test! You would be able to see all of us had a group discussion or mumbling non-stop in order to remember the script.

Few hours later ...

Oh gosh my group was the first group to present the masterpiece and worse case , I didn't know that papers or even short notes were not allowed to be brought alongside. In the meantime my entire mind went blank and STUCK. Pray to God. Pn Usha was kind enough to give us time to prepare for the script. But then , imagine that you have to memorise the whole script with the limited time given. It's going to kill me.....

Few minutes later...

My group's presentation. I am the first one to lead the talk and unfortunately Chin Yung was not in a good state and made damn lot of mistakes. Trying to make myself look more confident, I put supreme effort but in vain. Once I had an error in speaking, my emotion was beyond my control and my hands started tremble. Hopefully no one see it, I hid my hands behind. If only I was calm, I wouldn't make all the silly mistakes, I swear. It turned to be worse when I had to confront Pn Usha, who fired question at me. Hoh, gone...

Divya and Sin Ting did awesomely and calm. Hands clap for them .

I could feel the degree of hotness of my face. Wonder what caused that. Shy, or scared?

Waiting for the rest of the 12 groups to present their works was so boring that made me dozed off unconsciouly for quite a number of times , though some groups really did a very good job. Time passed and our tasks were completed, after a few hours. But the announcement of the marks we obtained, it led me to depression. Disappointment filled within me , I was so moody.

Lack of preparation and the no-good-english were the main causes of my failure. I viewed this as a failure. Now I realised, I am a weak speaker . I failed to obtain an A .

This will not happen in my next oral test , promise.
