I had a Japanese oral interview test yesterday, and I have no clue what grade I'm going to get.
We were first assigned roles- we were supposed to be at a party. My partners had to introduce each other (which we've done MANY MANY times) but I had to introduce someone (my teacher actes as the introducee) to them. Now that would've been ok, but we only went over that a couple of times in class, and I completely forgot what I was supposed to say when I actually wanted to say "this is my friend..." I was able to convey the information aout her though, so I did redeem myself on that part somewhat (I could see my other teacher who was grading us nod in approval at some points.)
We were then given a second senario- we had run in to each other on the street and were all going to the post office for various reasons so we decidecd to go together. I did ok at this part, I remembered what to say and didn't studder too badly. We then got to the post office, and, with out teacher acting as the clerk, we had to by assined items, or send certain pieces of mail. This is where things started to go down hill. I got VERY nervous, and forgot like half of my Japanese vocab and what to say. I did remember some of it, but I probably sounded like a japanese kindergartener at best.
We then each took turns being inetrviewed by our teacher and then asking her questions. I was last, and I was once again able to answer, but not well. I started getting even more nervous and nearly forgot my tenses. I was able to keep my sentance structure ok though,
SO, I have no clue what I'm going to get. I didn't comepletely shut down or pause for a long time, but I did forget a lot of what would make sense in those senarios. It's funny because we were asked very similar questions two nights before and I was able to answer easilly, but yesterday I almost completely freaked out and got super nervous, which probably screwed me up even more.
