171
You know you're going to fail your "O" oral exam, and thus destroy your future because:1. You laugh when you stumble over some incomprehensible chinese word.
2. The examiners look like twin bulldogs. And that's when they're smiling.
3. You accidentally confuse the chinese word for 'violent' with the chinese word for 'sexual' and you say it out loud.
4. You jumble up random words to form four chinese characters that sound reasonably like an ancient confucian proverb, and you say it like you mean it.
5. You stick out your tongue seven times in all across the whole passage.
6. Your eyebrows seem to have taken a life of their own. They go up and down and then they fall off your face and dance across the table and do a tango on the examiner's lap.
7. You freak out. In English.
8. YOUR NAME IS NATALIE WONG SING YEE.
Ok that's it. I'm going to clown school.
