    In Irish paper 2 and suddenly got really thirsty - I grabbed my drink, onewitha pull open cap, pulled it openeith my teeth and took a huge gulp, only to have some if it slide down my throat and forces me to swallow that tiny bit, needed to cough with a mouthful of water and just tried to swallow the rest of it- some of it came out of my nose!!!! I was so embarrassed, looked around, and not a single person had noticed! I got lucky :D

    English paper 1, half of our half is facing one way, and the other is facing the other way.

    I sit at the back of one end, so in the middle of the room.


    I leaned back to stretch, had my arms out and tried to move forward but couldn't. The guy behind me had stretched too, and we linked arms and ended up stuck for a second :o

    Fell asleep in french aural (I'm doing OL) head slipped outta my hands whacked my face off the desk (really painful, PAINFUL) got a nose bleed, and everyone laughed while I was just tearing up, makes for a great story though. Really awkward.

    OL French, its tick the boxes, I'd be in honours if it weren't for my poor spelling. Honestly I couldn't believe I did either, perhaps "sleep" is a bit strong since it was max like 15 minutes, but it was so sunny and warm and cozy and I'd got all my answers first time round and I was just resting my eyes, then BAM. I missed the entire section 3 and had a sore face. I'm not counting OL French so thats why I'm not ranting and raving.

    I think the confusion is arising from you typing oral, when you meant aural (listening) :)

    I have a really bad tendancy to talk to myself during exams..like motivational cringy pep talks when I'm freaking out. I never noticed until I realised that the guy who sits beside me was looking at me like I was possessed and commented on it.:o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 489 ✭✭JellyBeans92


    Happened to me a few times too:o Did it once in primary school....i'll always remember....accidentally flicked a pen, flew across the room and hit the teacher in the face....needless to say she flipped a lid...got away with it tho:D

    Its something to do with not holding the pen tight enough me thinks....

    OMG.. I did that in primary school to, except it was a pencil..

    I just to always wiggle my pencil between my finger (Very easily distracted me =P). Well this one day we had a substitute teacher, and he was just walking down the class room and the pencil went flying out of my hand, just missing his ear by about an inch..

    He was nice though so he just made a laugh about how I was trying to asassinate him or something

    :D

    The worst is the fart! did one during irish(it had been building up for ages cause i didnt want to let it out in front of anyone so i tried to let it out slowly and managed it but trying to contain myself as the fellow beside me starts cringing was so difficult. i kept a serious face and made sure i looked like i was deep in thought haha :D

    I have hayfever. Enough said :L

    also my stomach goes off every now and again and my graphite pencil kept rolling down the desk just there during the art exam. I'm such a lovely person to sit near..


  • Registered Users Posts: 156 ✭✭SquirrelFace


    I sneezed. Except when I sneeze I scream... so I like sounded like Id been shot or something, and the entire exam hall turned to look at me, and then i started laughing hysterically at myself for trying not to laugh after sneezing so people wouldnt think i was pretending to sneeze....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 487 ✭✭muffinz


    A girl tripped up a little while bringing in the tea and biscuits, i nearly wet myself laughing i couldnt stop xD
    And not really a mess up, but while drawing the male organs for biology my inspector kept laughing at my diagram.... it must have been really bad xD


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 487 ✭✭muffinz


    and on the stomach thing: i had food poisoning during irish, and stomach wouldnt stop making noises, but they sounded like farts.. so embarrasing -.-

    For biology today, we were asked to draw a diagram to explain how involuntary reflexes work.

    I was clueless on how to draw a diagram on this, so I did what I normally do and drew a stick figure :D I put his hand on something hot with him saying ouch.. With arrows pointing from the hand to the spine.. :D

    The last day going into Irish paper 1 my stomach decided to make the most huge grumble/noise ever! Everyone, and I mean everyone looked around. Then for the next half a hour it continued to make noise every now and again.....

    luckily i'm not one to be really badly embarrassed, but it was still pretty cringeworthy!

    OMFG i had like a nak for them stomach grumbles. that kept happening to me during the JC so i knew i didn't want that to happen this year in my LC. i absolutely stuffed myself with food every morning before an exam. i should have put down anxiety as a disability lol cause i get soooo insecure about it and i can never concentrate again after it happens. lol and do you ever notice how you know when it's coming and you're like "uh oh" and then i start opening pages or cough repeatedly to cover up the sound XD

    I LOVE this thread :D. And all that stuff about your stomach rumbling is SO true!!

    When I was doing maths using the calulator mashing the buttons and the calculator slipped off the table. The noise followed got everyone looking over in my corner but I pretended not to notice and stuck my head down pretending to write furiously. Then a few minutes later I reached to pick up my calculator, stetched then BANG my table collapsed. Examiner had to come down and fix it, Jeez some loud laughs towards me then. What was funnier though was the superintendent saying ''careful now'' when she fixed the table.

    During Irish paper 2 I got gassy...really gassy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,017 ✭✭✭Crow92


    During the french aural one Big Loud Fly was buzzing about the same girl for a good 10 minutes, landing on her and all. very entertaining....and distracting lol

    Start of the Biology exam.

    Placed all my exam 'equipment' in order on the table (I'm a bit pedantic about having everything in the right place at the beginning of an exam).
    Had my 2 litre bottle of Ballygowan, sports drink and glucose sweets all placed out neatly in front of me, ready to begin. Examiner proceeds to give out exam papers as we're already a few minutes behind, realise I forgotten the vital component of my exam desk prep that is my pencil case, shout "Stop!". Am forced to walk all the way back to the back of the hall amidst dirty looks from everyone whose time I'm wasting and all the way back up again...

    Walk of shame fo' sure :(

    I do that too. I had everything set for Geography, in the order that I would use it (pencils to the left as I'd use them first for the short questions, then highlighter for highlighting questions), and as soon as I was given out the paper I forgot to take my ruler out of my bag.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 487 ✭✭muffinz


    My pen ran out in geography, so i bought a new pen, then that ran out in biology!! had to use one of those horrible cheap biros that hurt your hand like hell D:

    I'm constantly doing that in exams :o At least I can cheer up the examiner's day.. :p

    For the sheeps heart experiment we were asked to draw a detailed diagram about the procedure etc, and I had not looked at the experiment at all.. So I drew a heart with a knife in it.. xD

    Labelled it 'Scalpel' and 'Sheep heart' :D

    For Irish I wrote a load of crap as well :P

    For 'An Cearrbhach' we were asked what kind of person is God? The start of my answer..
    "God is an old person. He is 2010 years old. He lives in Hell."
    Obviously I meant to say Heaven but I thought 'Oifreann' meant Heaven! :pac: Examiner is gonna think I'm a satanist :(

    For 'Gealt' we were asked about the main points for the poem..
    -The bus driver wet his pants. He is enjoying the pleasures of life.

    -The Gealt jumped into the doctors arms and really enjoyed this.

    -Everyone on the bus was off their head
    :D:D
