So, the first thing I did when I came home was do this because ... I don't know. I'm stupid. I have stuff to say.
I was up all night studying for Korean. It didn't really help much. So, I wasted precious sleep time. But more on that later.
( Farrah. )
I left my house at 4:45am to get to the racecourse opposite my uni where my exam was going to be held. I took pictures and stuff. But I'll do that tomorrow after I've slept heaps.
( MJ. )
And the exam ... first question and it's parts I totally got it wrong. I'm sure of it. It was reported speech. You had to read the conversation and then answer the question. The questions all just "... 뭐라고 했어요?" There were long parts to the conversation. If you were retelling what someone said you wouldn't say it word for word, especially if it's long, with just 라/다/자고 했어요 or whatever it is. I'm also pretty sure I didn't conjugate right. So, I shortened it. To get the gist of the sentence. But I don't think I looked over it carefully enough and I don't think it makes sense. But you could just have this big, block of words and just tag whatever the correct reported speech pattern on the end. That is 15 marks gone. I'm not quite sure what we were supposed to do. But I had to get that off my chest. I realised whatever study I did, it was pointless, because it didn't help. I spent maybe over 10 hours cramming this in. Ack!
And in point form:
- Had breakfast at McDonalds
- Did exam
- Had Yum Cha
- Took sticker photos (so nostalgic)
- Went to karaoke
- Went home on the train. Was asleep for most of it. Only woken up when the person sitting beside me needed to get off.
So hungry. But there's nothing nice to eat at home. Want some sort of soup like thing for my sore throat.
