Dear blog,
This entry is specailly dedicated to elaine, my room mate.( hahaha cos i've got too much to rumble about) it wouldn't be nice to flood her H&M entry with all the incoherent chat logs. Plus i would have to think of a H&M to put in every time i comment there. :P
YES... that hall lady was like asking me about you!! keep asking... got me so irritated... i went back to the room, because they threatened to fine me if i don't return my room key by 7may. $7 a day! like wth... they didn't even bother calling me until 8may AFTERNOON. asked me if i could come down NOW. the office closes at 6pm. its not like i stay next door, hello. When i went back on the 9th, or was it the 10th? ah whatever. i wasted that day traveling Singapore just for them, I saw a hand delivered letter on the floor - informing me about your application GIRO problem.
So i very politely went to the hall office and returned my keys. Pretending that i knew nothing of the payment. HA! they also didn't ask for it. it was and empty threat.... i felt so cheated. ok, better than having to pay what? $21? I also notified them that my roommate wasn't in the country and wouldn't be back until the end of June. so it wouldn't be fair to just terminate her application just like that.
And the lady just said,
"huh? in that case could you help her pay first?"
Yah duh.. its only less than $20. Okay, sure! i was about to take out the money when she said,
"okay you go to the student's something office. (i forgot that stupid building's name) Go there and pay then bring back the slip of paper and i will help you........." blah blah blah.
HUH??? all that for less then $20?!??! it was pouring outside you know!!! and we don't have a sheltered walk way up to that office. That student affairs office building up on that stupid hill behind our hall. OH PLUS, she said... it closes at 5.30pm. or was it 4.30pm? Aiya.. forgot. who cares. Anyway, i was only left with 15min to get there when it was POURING... She still very kindly printed out a piece of email she said she sent out to you and ask me to hand this to them after i asked, how are they suppose to know who i'm paying for?
So i went back home and tried to get you on your phone but it wasn't on. also i guess you would be busy la.. haha then, i called up joanne, liling, and finally dhash to get your house phone number. Thinking maybe i can inform your parents or your siblings about it... but it was a fax machine.. damn. didn't know what to do, hahaha... when i got home, i faxed that paper the woman printed for me with a written msg to your parents. don't know if they received it. (i felt quite dumb though, after that. i didn't know if i should make it sound formal or just casual. so it was not here nor there.)
2 days later, the lady called me to ask about the payment.. haha! i was like.. er.. ok, i informed her parents about it already. why not you contact her parents?
oh my god.... all i want to say is... this system is so cocked up! why must we walk so far, pay such a measly amount then come back again? they make me feel as if i'm paying thousands of dollars... And how come they so freaking rigid?!?!? cannot take it...
Love, berniceā„
