Or if I wanted to water down the reality, I’d label it “Day 1 of Final Exam Week.”
Today, is my 一对一课考试 (one-one-one class test). 我的一对一考试关于中非关系的意义方面。(My one-on-one test is in regards to the significance of the China-Africa relationship.)
Since midterms, I’ve focused my one-on-one study on learning vocabulary specific to and how to speak formerly about the China-Africa relationship. I’ve already turned in my 2, 500 character essay on the significance of the relationship.
My hand was ready to fall off by the end of this!
(Again, thank YOU Eddie Murphy for getting me through that!) Every single time, I watch Delirious… I spend some minutes just laughing at what the man is wearing! HAHA!!! 
As I said Monday night when it was 11 PM and I was still writing: “We all know what we need individually to survive in times of struggle. I need Eddie Murphy.” *NEEDED* him badly!
Tonight, I give a verbal report, in Mandarin, before the firing squad – I mean…a panel of teachers – for my final exam.
6 PM is when I give my report!
I *do* feel less nervous than I was during midterms when I had to do it on the China-U.S. relationship.
Even so, the struggle will be real. O_o
Tomorrow, I have my Chinese newspaper and Chinese Conversation class final exams! On Friday, I have my one-on-two final exam!
And on top of the other things that I must get done before Friday?
The word of the week is:
UPDATE:
Gave my report, reviewed it flawlessly with my teacher beforehand…Then three minutes into a smooth report, the director of the program walks in like…随便！
The strug. 继续奋斗。。。
