Day...what?

You can't just grasp everything by planning ahead. Once there may be a layout of the whole picture popped up in your mind, but somehow finally things just happen as the way they are.

My point is that... it's rather late now before I should have picked up my pen and wrote down these pacthes that may make sense. So it's hard to say day when.

No start, no end.

Anyway, today.

This morning I finally found the original sample of answer sheets for IELTS. But according to my schedual, my model test should be in this morning, so I run to the printing shop as soon as they opened.

Then, it took me about 2hours on the model test, I didn't finish the task 2 of the writting part, because I forgot some of the crucial tricks, like some of the linking words. I didn't blame myself too much for that, well, I shouldn't for now.

Phycological condition, steady. Mind, relatively clear. However, I'm not accustommed to write on the answer sheets-- I never did so during the practice. But it turned out that the new, original IELTS papers I bought yesterday were a little bit easier than I thought, with listenning scored 7.5 and reading 8. Whereas, there are still some minor problems like wrong spelling, missing upper case, missing article and the mistakes of singular and pulural. I guess I need to get a bit more familiar with the detailed rules of the test, and better get adapted to them.

But there are still major problems, like some of the challenging questions in the oral exams like What's your favourite childhood song? and Describe an app. ?I read so many possible given questions these days that I felt a bit trapped by the questions literally. So on this condition, I decide to keep reading and listening, in another word, absorbing, but also, try to unwind myself. To free my mind, and take it back to thinking.

At the same time, in order not to lose track of my acquired skills, I made decision that I'll review the past papers to enhance the memory and do appropriate exercises so that I remember the way of doing right.

Something I summarized:

Tricks for oral test:

1. try to communicate, that means to elaborate the topic you are trying to talk with other people.

2.it's okay to slow down, and speak the way you like-- without accent, but just standard pronounciation, so don't pay too much attention to what you sounds like, pay attention to what you think. Think hard. Speak softly.

3. I don't have the problem of lacking ideas. Just unwind.

4. now I should drop the pressuresome question list and talk to myself more naturally, with the help of some listenning practice.?
