I'm pretty sure I would have lost the job if today's interview was that kind of situation. Instead I'm just pretty sure I mooted my above average performance on the written portion. What really caught me off guard is the interview started off with simple questions like when is my birthday and do I have a TV in my room. But after that he started asking questions that were off the wall difficult and I really don't even know what the basic meaning of the questions were. I answered in broken Japanese and I'm pretty sure from the look on his face that I wasn't even close to what he was asking for with the questions.
I was doing the math in my head today on the way to the exam. We have four exams a year and the whole week of the exam is a vacation more or less. With the exception of the actual 2 hour test and the fifteen minute home room that we have on Friday. What that means is that in addition to winter and summer breaks, we're taking almost an entire month off each year for these exams. So in a year I might be going to school for a little over eight months even though I'm supposed to be full time. I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed at that thought but I'm still trying to make the most of the learning experience.
