Well, the JLPT is temporarily over and done with.

I really wouldn’t like to say how it went, it’s a tricky beast to gauge really. Either way I feel it’ll be a close run, I’ll either have scraped or pass or let it slip from my grasp by a few agonizing points.

The test is broken down into four sections:

1) Vocab/Kanji – Responsible for my failure last year actually went rather well this year. I would roughly hazard that I passed it.

2) Listening – My specialist section, I took 80% of the test last year, I doubt I took that much this year, maaaybe a pass but I think more likely just below the pass mark.

3) Reading – This was ass this year. The topics were boring and the wording vague on some of the shorter ones. Probably didn’t quite achieve a pass mark.

4) Grammar – Probably passed, the first 50% of the questions were very easy, the latter 50% were trickier but I probably managed to solve enough of them to pass overall.

So..that’s all she wrote for that. I guess I can take a couple of days study break before getting back to the drawing board and studying for something else (I need motivation more powerful than self improvement sadly).

Nothing else!

I could murder a peach iced tea. Just thought I’d share.

How about it might lead to a job that pays more money

An outside possibility certainly, but nothing falling on the old radar for another couple of years either way.

Mmmmmm. Peach tea.
