Bombed my test

[HyeJinx1984]

Just got back from my Armenian 101 class, and my first test... which will probably come back a D... if I'm lucky...

I don't get it, I studied my ass off for the last two weeks, reading and writing an alphabet that up til three weeks ago I couldn't even understand. Everyone was so amazed at how quickly I was learning, even my teacher's taken a keener interest in me than anyone else in the class. And I sit down to take the test today... and my brain just switches off. I left half the answers blank and the rest... Jeez... who knows. I'm in such a bad mood right now... I KNOW this stuff, why couldn't I do it on the xxxxing test? Great, what a great start to learning Armenian...

Sorry if I'm using this site like my personal LiveJournal.

Don't worry man..... Mesrob Mashdots will be proud no matter how many times you fail. I mean....you are learning it for yourself, not the school. At least you took the initiative to learn the alphabet he created, which is pretty hard in itself.

Keep it up man.

I gotta be honest... there's no NEED for 38 letters... no need at all. You don't need two different "R"s and five different "K"s and six billion different "Ts"s... I swear, if I ever see Mesrob... I'll kick his ass, that XXXXer... God, I'm in such a pissy mood right now.... I know the pissiness is gonna go away and I won't be angry anymore... just sad and disapointed. I don't know what's worse.. how I feel now, or how I'll feel in two hours. *sighs*

Maybe you have test anxiety. Was this test the only time your brain seemed to "shut off" like that or does it happen to you often?

[HyeJinx1984]

This was one of the only recent times I can remember.

[Siggie]

Probably because it was so important for you and more of a challenge than other tests.

Try to relax. Get yourself to calm down physiologically.
If you're looking at it and it's stuff you're sure you know/knew then maybe it was just test anxiety.

If you recognize it, but it's possible you didn't know it for the test or forgot, then maybe you need to study differently.

[HyeJinx1984]

I guess... I mean, I really couldn't care less if it was a math test or something... ut this subject is kinda close to home you know? This isn't something I should fail on... Oh well. Just try harder next time I guess.

Its alright HyeJinx...you will do better on your other tests. You want to prove to yourself that you can do this, but let me tell you just because you did bad on a test doesnt mean you wont get anything out of the class. And you shouldnt put yourself down for it.

Dont you have a friend in the class you can study with them. Or have your mom help you out with it. No biggy..all will be well. And as Sad_Eyes said bigggggg huuggesss and feell betterr....even though I'm kind of late with this post.

actually mashtoc, did a BIG favor to armenians, because he created al the leaters the language needed. others suffer by making different sounds like english has like ch, q and k, and c. and it uses them inconsistently.
its the armenians fault that they dont use their alphabet more wisely, so that the spelling would be much easier. they wanna suffer like the hungarinas or czechs.
(dont even talk about hungarian, that spelling is xxxxng hard)

[Hayq]

lol! Jinx you are right! Mashtots made the georgian alphabet and their alphabet is soo much simpler...hell, its so simple there are no capitols! :)

I agree..we need to shorten it down to at the most 30letters...maybe get rid of the ROUGH(?) letters?

And change some words a little...airport...otanavakayran???...Otaport, or OtaKentron...

Don't get me started, this is the subject I love to hate to talk about the most.
