How did u guys found the Qs?? HARD? EASY?? which Q did u do??

I did Q 2 & 3....I think i stuffed it really BADLI... (what did u guys say???) y is TEch stressful?? *Sigh* i thought it would be on disable ppl or discrimination... i guess i didn't have any luck in guessing what the Q was

i hated how the teacher was sitting right in front of me... she MADE me extremely NERVOUS and she kept nodding her head and smiled when i said something wrong....

i didn't look at the teacher at all, even though it said not to read from the paper, it's marked from the tape.
yea, how much is it worth?

i did q1 and 2..
i said technology wasn't stressful, like i disagreed with it. and i said that because of technology, education is more interesting/fun, women can work, and so it's making life easier instead of more stressful.
and i said that with a lot of um and ah's and pauses and repeats and corrections. :(

i did both my questions on technology?
i stuffed it up pretty bad i think.. hmm, kinda painful to think about it now :p

My examiner was doing exactly the same thing! Except it was in a way worse, because she was kind of at the corner of my vision, sitting there nodding. I suppose it was meant to be kind of supportive, but I really can't stand that sort of stuff in Speaking :D

Time will tell.

Didn't we all go to James Cook?

My examiner (Takahata Tomoko) was very nice, even though my attempt was rubbish. I kept forgetting how to conjugate the verbs I needed, so I ended up with two or three corrections for each sentence. She said I had "good structure" though, so I have no idea how I'll do...

Band 2 for me!
