Feeling terrible again, woke up with one killer stomach ache that just refused to go away. Also, ever since I got on my computer in the afternoon, it's been pulling that "I'll be annoying and not connect to the internet thing" again. It never happens to any of the other computers just mine == It would be great if that happened while I was procrastinating but this time I wasn't and I seriously needed it to look up word lists.
Anyway, got up earlier today and the gloomy weather was gross. Well, this is how I spent my day in the order of events:
3 hours of kanji revision
3 hours of vocabulary revision
3 hours of grammar structure revision
1 hour of trying to cram in new kanji
2 hours reviewing the old practice test papers I did already
1 hour looking at different reading comprehension formats
I guess that explains why my head hurts a lot right now. It's also past midnight and I'm probably not going to bed any time soon. I honestly didn't do anything else today other than what I wrote up there, as well as little things like eat and shower.
While I'll be doing my test on Sunday my parents are going to go to some party and they're even bringing cake along for it T_T I want some. I still have to sort out loose ends of my trip but looks like I can't do that until Sunday night.
I feel a little bit better today after that studying but then I remember some tests were "do-able" and others not so much. Still don't know how it'll go. I don't know which paper it was but their reading passage had furigana on top of all the kanji (it tells you how to read it) and I was like "noooo why can't we have something like this in the actual test" but instead, I find it retarded because all the words I DO know, have furigana on them and the ones that don't are the ones I don't know. Does that mean I know the harder words ? That's ridiculous.
You guys should look at this --> http://www.jlptstudy.net/N3/ Click kanji on the side and that's the characters you need to know for N3 T_T It doesn't include the lower levels but I did go through them and I'm actually surprised I know all of the kanji for N4 and N5. It's because some were used in HSC, and others I just knew and remembered after seeing them heaps of times. Anyway, my point is I went through that N3 list in like an hour which means that I definitely wouldn't have been able to absorb anything but there's no time.
Of course you can draw on the "chinese meaning" but the problem is that in a section of the test, it asks you how the word is pronounced and unfortunately chinese can't help you with that :/ Also there's too many and the pronunciation is different depending on the case x_x After this exam and when I get back from the trip, I think I'm going to immerse myself into the SS visual novel series again to try and pick up new words. Honestly, the best way to study isn't really from a textbook but to read articles, play games, anime, manga and stuff because what is written there is more "natural." Too bad I haven't been doing that since no time :/
