I'm happy. (: Just happy. Simple as that.
During English lesson today, I was called to read an oral passage for the whole class. I knew she wanted to call me earlier but kept mistaking me as Yuan Yee... But that doesn't matter. XD Before I started, I was unsure of myself. But I bit my lip and went on with it. The first few words went fine but soon after that my heart started thumping so fast. I guess I'm just not the type of person who can speak in front of so many people... Despite the fact that I've been with my class for close to 2 years now. :(
Nevertheless, I just let the blood rush all over my body. Anyway I only need my mouth and eyes right? XD So yeah, continued till the end. Mrs. Tian corrected me here and there but I was still shocked at the fact that she didn't correct me until the second half of the passage. I thought she was just tired or something. When I finished, she said, "Not bad."
At that moment, I was feeling really relieved and happy. For the first time, I was praised for my oral! Although it's only "not bad", but it means a lot to me. Considering that fact that during prelims oral, Mrs. Tian read out the comments and all my comments were negative comments. No positive ones at all. And now, I get praised! I was only corrected 2-3 times. I feel accomplished.
I know it's nothing to boast about but as I said, it really means a lot to me. Oral is just around the corner so with just "not bad" from Mrs. Tian, I'm feeling more confident about myself already. (: Yoshi! I can do it!! :D
I know I can, nya.
