I&#8217;m studying the 5th and final level so I&#8217;m supposed to have a quite good english level (which is not true as you could guess from these posts ;-)) and the exam should have been a bit difficult. As far as I&#8217;m not studying english, I mean, I&#8217;m just going to the classes, I decided to stay at home the whole weekend trying to train the related grammar and memorize vocabulary. The nightmare became true!!<\/p>\n<p>The point is that, the harder I tried to study, the easier I did other tasks instead. I don&#8217;t know if you have ever been in this situation but for me, it&#8217;s becoming a bad habit.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, it was a torture to put my eyes on the english book, I had to do another thing!!! And I did it. I did clear up my room (yeah!!, stop laughing!!), I was ironing, doing the washing up, went to play a soccer match, etc.<br \/>\nI was even drawing a logo prototype for the <a href=\"http:\/\/live.gnome.org\/GUADEC2006\">GUADEC 2006<\/a> logo contest, which I know the deadline had just gone, and the thematic I choose was doing a soccer player t-shirt simil using the number from the GUADEC version (7), even knowing the contest was for a general GUADEC logo, not just for the GUADEC#7 event!!!!! Crazy, isn&#8217;t it!!!!<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t want to study at all, but I <strong>had<\/strong> to.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I accomplished my subconscience target, I was abled to make only <strong>one<\/strong> reading of the whole subject.<\/p>\n<p>If you are curious enough, you can take a look to my two logo prototypes which survived to the creation process at my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/21073656@N03\/sets\/72157616561681084\/\">Flickr page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And, what about the exam? Well, IMHO it was quite easy and, after 3h 30&#8242; writing, I&#8217;m quite sure I&#8217;m going to pass it.<br \/>\nHey, I forgot it! I could have saved some extra points thanks to these hours \u00abreading\u00bb grammar and vocabulary, so I have to say it wasn&#8217;t a waste of time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last monday I had an english exam at the Official Languages School in A Coru\u00f1a.
