The first day of the new semester didn't turn up as I expected. I missed my very first Feature Writing lecture, because I couldn't find the venue, asked the Comm dept. secretary - told us, Dr.Firdaus was not in, class cancelled. Met a friend at 2pm, was told that Feature Writing was on, new lecturer, not Dr.Firdaus. And I went to the wrong venue, so next Wednesday I need to find the correct place. Had lunch by myself, chose a table near the wall, hoping that nobody would find me there so that I would have some peace eating my lunch. A friend waved, and gave a harrassing look - girls usually are good at doing this and I'm good at identifying it sebab selalu jadi mangsa. Is it wrong to eat lunch by yourself? Does that indicate that I have no friends in univ...argh, will blog about that later. Arabic writing class was cancelled, the lecturer didn't come to the class. Went to the college office to renew my stay off campus (SOC) status. Lots of students applying for room key etc. Some had to sleep at the psychology department because they arrived late last night. I tried to talk to kak Shake, couldn't hear what she said so I decided to go to the staff entrace to see officer on duty. Entered the office, heard a voice yelling, "Apsal masuk office nih, kenapa nih!!". Asked kak Shake and she told me to see the officer inside (the one yelling at me just now). Gave salam, she scolded me for entering the office without permission, students are not allowed here. The officer asked me to provide consent letter from my parents and their ID cards. That is the procedure for first time application, but I was trying to renew my status, they never asked me to do so for the past 5-6 semesters. The college officer must be crazy. I asked her why should I do so because I'm not applying for the first time. "ISO!! - we are moving towards ISO awards, have to do everything, every procedure, one by one!!" What the hell is this lady talking, don't you have my records. The letter that I sent during my very first semester in this univ. I've been having a lot of problems with the college since my first semester here. Every year my name would be missing from the group binding list, if I don't attend it, my final result would be suspended. NOT FAIR!! They're the ones who are giving me such problems and I have to go through all this @#$%^!!! They put under the signature of the officer (in the approval letter) CC to finance. CC - carbon copy, but every time I go to the finance unit to claim the re-fund for my hostel fees, they would ask me to provide hostel SOC approval letter. I'm dealing with stupid and crazy people. This is my final year, and I really don't wanna mess up. But I think I'm beginning to hate this univ more than ever...ISO is on-paper qualifications, but I think this univ does not deserve it. Of course we have all the international level facilities, but the quality of the services, ish...teruk gila!! The staff - aiyak, so berlagak and pemalas. Ok, I think that's enough for tonite...this university, and that stupid college officer - not worth it, shall save my anger for "better" things!!


- a friend told me to remember the good things that have happened today...dinner with family, met Prof.Quayum, chatted with Bai Yang, Yong sms me her new number, managed to get the info that Sherwin wants, chatted with Madam thru YM...I'm tired, am going to bed now. Good night!!
