It's Friday!

What are you doing this weekend? :) Me = nothing. I'm kinda bored, as my roomies are outta town. I'll probably read a book :) , catch up with an old friend or two :cool: , and there's always laundry :sigh: . š Cheers, Vikram.

I've done that, and I probably wouldn't do it again. The silence (unless you run next to a busy street) is very disconcerting, as is running for an extended period of time without seeing or hearing anyone. It just feels so strange, like running through a ghost town :~

I passed the TOEIC (Test of English International Csomething) which is the same kind of thing. During the preparation, one afternoon, we made a TOEFL (the english teacher wanted to show us what it was exactely) and I had 100% correct (I think the maximum is 1000 pts) :-O . While I did not get all the questions, the logic used in the multiple choice questions was so obvious that you could almost pick up the answer even without understanding what you were reading. This was 4 years ago. ~RaGE();

Now it's changed. It's called IBT (Internet Based Test). You are in front of a PC, reading, listening, writing and even speaking to the machine. Someone is going to listen to your recordings in a few days, then. I feel an idiot when I speak to a machine. :-O _____________________________________________ Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us. My Blog [ITA] - Developing ScrewTurn Wiki 1.0b...

It was in front of the PC as well (you were able to choose, if I remember it correctly). But I do not remember the speaking part? Was it optional?! Sincerely, Elina Life is great!!! Enjoy every moment of it! :-O

Now it's mandatory. Although I shouldn't have many problems with it, the whole speaking part it's quite odd and definitely not "natural": you are asked to explain something (what? no one knows), then you can think about it for 15 seconds, then you can speak for 45 seconds. _____________________________________________ Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us.

Sounds really weird. I couldn't remember I had done something like that. Lucky me :) Sincerely, Elina Life is great!!! Enjoy every moment of it! :-O
