pre-exams
18. April 2007Today we had some pre-exams. It was a one to one test like Cambridge Advanced Exams. First reading, than writting, after lunch my „favorite“ part english in use and finally listening. Tomorrow we will have the speaking party. I’m not sure about today’s result of this pre-test. It was not as difficult as I expect the Advanced test, but there were some complicated parts inside english in use and during the listening exam. If I had a good feeling after tests in Switzerland, then it was almost the opposite result. I’m not sure who it will be here, we will see.
After school we went to Seaworld to buy a seasonal pass. Because it will be the same price than for a 1 day pass if you buy it before end of april. Then we drove back to PB for school dinner at World Curry. The restaurant looks very strange and I couldn’t believe that it would be the best take away in town. But that was a prejudice, than our meals were very good and we enjoyed to wind down after the exams. We met some other students form school, which I had never talk before. That was good for socialising and networking.
Now I have to prepare my speaking test for tomorrow. On Friday we will go to LA for a 3 day trip. I have also to organise some things for this trip, because I’m the tourguide. Always the same, once a guide always a organizer. 😉

„english in use“ is your favorite part? usually, it’s the most difficult and everybody’s most hated part… 😉
I’m quite sure, „to wind down“ is one of the new phrasal verbs you’ve learned, right? *grin* they are pretty hard to learn… it’s nearly impossible to guess what a phrasal verb means if you don’t know the meaning… but never give up…
I don’t want to correct the whole post, but my advice: check the meaning of the word „than“, you don’t use it the right way…
and one funny but sweet thing: you’ll have a speaking PARTY tomorrow? 😉 *double grin* I think you thought about the speaking part… not about a party…
never give up and go for gold prince!!! 😀
sali steiner, isch jo schön und guet, sonen sprochufenthlat, aber das du mitlerwilä dini gschichtli scho uf englisch muesch schribä, find ich grad chli überrissä:-) hoffe den nur das went retour chunsch nid no englisch redsch, susch würds den schwer zum fondue oder rösti z bstellä :-)))) mfg aebi
Thank you for the corrections. English in use, that was a joke. I hate this part. Part and party = spelling mistake. I will check the meaning of than.
Aebi, dont worry, there is a very famous fondue restaurant in la jolla near my school: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_Review-g32578-d494703-Reviews-Forever_Fondue-La_Jolla_California.html
weiter so, dann kann ich mein Englisch wieder auffrischen und wie heisst es so schön „Übung macht den Meister“ und Aebi soll sich keine Sorgen machen…………..
