My Irish Oral could not have gone better. my sraith pictur was 'timpiste sa Choláiste Samhraidh' and i had to read the last two verses from 'An Spailpin Fanach" which i was not that happy about cuz i thinks its the hardest out of them all, but it went fine. Only thing now is the practicals in May. Construction Studies, Engineering and Art. cant wait to have them over with..

watch videos with french people speaking/news reports , anything www.france2.fr
don't worry too much they understand that you are not french, you may be lucky enough to have an irish examiner like me who didn't have much of an accent himself

12% of my Leaving done after doing my French oral today, my Irish oral and my History project. Feels pretty good.

There should be a rule against doing PE when it's that hot outside!

Don't know how I feel about my French oral today! Went really well at times stumbled on the awkward questions I was asked! :pac: But happy they're now out of the way!

We don't even do PE at senior cycle, my body would go into shock if I exercised at this stage :P

Irish Oral done. Went almost perfectly, apart from on the sraith pictuir.. When I had to ask her questions about Madra ar strae I asked her one, then went blank for a minute and just sat there looking around me. Scariest experience ever. Made up for it in the comhra though, managed to throw in the modh chionnialach a couple of times and gave really detailed answers. Pretty sure I managed an A of some sort

It's annoying not knowing what exact day you're on for the oral. It's only a small detail but still. It's actually kinda ridic that you're not given a specific time with it being a state exam and all

Don't get me started.. For Spanish I was meant to be on a Monday evening and got put off until the Tuesday morning. For Irish, I got brought forward to today from tomorrow morning. Not much you can do I suppose.

Oofft :eek: Getting brought forward is tough enough. Suppose I can't complain after what happened to you, I have it easy by comparison

Our French was all over the place no one knew when they would be. She told a load of people she wasn't doing them today then changed her kind towards the end of the day. She left the last 3 people waiting ages to do it then decided she'll finish tomorrow instead. Would hate to be them :pac:

Spanish Oral completed. Honestly could not have gone any better. Conversation felt so natural and dare I say it, fun. Delighted they're all over and done with now, completely drained after them though.
