OMGOMGOMG.

Having a major nervous breakdown right now. Chinese oral exam tomorrow, and I only just found out today that we are not allowed to bring our scripts in to help us when speaking. In the exam information, they merely stated that “Powerpoint slides with pictures, graphs, and bullet points in English is accepted. Notes in Chinese are not allowed.” Any reasonable person (who didn’t know they’re not supposed to bring their script in beforehand) would think that it just means the powerpoint slides should not have Chinese words on it, right!? Fuck lah. Stupid China people. Not like their English very good – couldn’t they have just given us the examination pack in Chinese instead of chen qiang-ing and writing it in English!? Bringing notes in English into a Chinese oral exam is ridiculous beyond belief! I swear I died a little inside when one of my classmates told me that her friend took this module last year and wasn’t allowed to bring her script in. Now I have one night left to memorise 3 6.5-minute speeches and hope I remember everything tomorrow. Either that or find some way to cheat my way through this. Should have fucking gone with Level 3 Chinese rather than decide that I want a challenge and went with the highest-fucking-level 5.

Feels like someone is suffocating me. Panicked so much I even went to look at the acceptable extenuating circumstances and debated whether I could try to get a letter for depression. Not that I think I’m too far off considering how horrible my mood has been recently, and how I always cry/feel like crying for no reason whatsoever.
