So angry that I risk bursting a blood vessel.
So the motherfucker DO officer rang me up today.
And, asked me whether I still wanted to go for the July intake.
Yeah. And I always tell my taxi driver to take the longer and more expensive route.
After umpteenth times of telling him, 'I do want to go for the July intake' in a no-matter-what-it-takes determination, that fucker then told me 'My advice for you is wait for next year. Because it will be very rushed on you if you still want to go for the July intake.'
I told him, 'No. I want to go for the July intake. I don't want to waste half a year.'
He then launched into a tirade on why I shouldn't go for the July intake, even though I'm sure my steel-laden resolve was so evident that even the satellite raditation couldn't fail to transmit those waves of determination and pure resolve emitting from my side of the phone.
So, this was the conversation we had on the phone this morning. (The one in brackets are my replies.)
'I really advise you NOT to go for the July intake. But, since you insist...Because it will be very rushed on you. The latest I can get you there is just right on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. And, you will miss orientation. (I don't mind missing orientation) Yeah, but it's during the orientation where you get to choose your modules and curriculum blah blah blah...So, if you reach there just nice, you will feel very stressed. You haven't settle accomodation yet. Beause if you have relatives or friends there, (I have friends over there) then you wouldn't have to worry about lodging for the time being.'
'Because even the latest right now is still pending Visa application. But, you? You haven't even receive confirmation from the University. And, Visa application the earliest also takes a week. And, we cannot control Visa duration, because it all depends on them. So, it may take from as short as five days to as long as two weeks. And, you may have to miss a week or two of school. (I don't mind missing a week or two of school) So, you don't mind eh? ...But, my advice for you is actually to go next year instead, because you will be very stressed. (MOTHERFUCKER!) You need time to settle in all all that...But since you are so insistent...But, you really want to go for the July intake right? (!!!!!!!!! dies from anger)'
* (MOTHERFUCKER!) not included in conversation.
So, as you can see for yourself with your own eyes, this stupid asshole DO officer kept telling me about the CONS of what if I went for the July intake, and then going on to reducing it to nothingness against my own resolveness.
That was the long version. This is the short, edited version.
him: Blah blah blah (ALL CONS), but you really want to go right? Blah Blah Blah (ALL CONS AGAIN), but you really want to go right? Blah Blah Blah (ALL CONS AGAIN), but you really want to go right?
Excuse me, fucker, since you are so fucking sure that I REALLY REALLY want to make it for the July intake, you tell me all these fucking things for what?!!
Of course, of course, I'm not an unreasonable person. It is not because of all these that vulgar language is dominating about 90% of my entry here.
THE FUCKING THING IS THIS: IT IS ALL HIS FAULT THAT I AM RUSHING FOR THE JULY INTAKE. AND, EVEN MORE HIS FAULT THAT I MAY MISS A WEEK OR TWO OF CLASSES, AND EVEN MORE MORE HIS FAULT THAT I WILL FEEL VERY STRESSED AND PROBABLY I DON'T KNOW CUT MY THROAT OR SOMETHING BUT I'M KIDDING. REALLY.
Ok, let me explain.
After waiting for two weeks with no news whatsoever from my fucking DO officer, who will receive whatever offer letters the Uni sends, I went online to check the status of my application.
To my horror, my status is this: PO. Which means, still pending for documents, which fucking means they are still waiting for me to send in additional documents to them before they can process my application.
AND, MY FUCKING OFFICER DIDN'T EVEN BOTHER TO TELL ME!
IF I HADN'T BOTHERED TO GO ONLINE TO CHECK AND MAKE A TRIP DOWN TO THE FUCKING OFFICE THE VERY NEXT DAY TO DEMAND AN EXPLANATION, AND HAVE HIS VERY KIND COLLEAGUE (HE WAS ON FUCKING LEAVE) INFORM ME THAT I HAVE YET TO HAND IN SO-AND-SO DOCUMENTS, WOULD I HAVE KNOWN?!
NO. I WOULD JUST HAVE BEEN A FUCKING STUPID IDIOT WHO TELLS EVERYONE WHO ASKS, 'OH, I'VE HANDED IN ALL THE RELEVANT DOCUMENTS ALREADY, NOW JUST WAITING FOR THEIR REPLY. IT WON'T TAKE LONG. MY DO OFFICER TOLD ME TWO WEEKS OR SO. (SMILES BRIGHTLY)'
WHICH LITERALLY MEANS THAT BECAUSE OF HIS INEFFICENCY IN INFORMING ME THAT I HAVE TO HAND IN SO AND SO DOCUMENTS, INSTEAD TELLING ME THAT ALL THE DOCUMENTS WERE IN AND THE ONLY THING TO DO IS WAIT FOR THE OFFER LETTER FROM THE UNI, WOULD I HAVE WASTED TWO CRITICAL WEEKS OF MY LIFE WAITING AND WAITING, WHEN IN FACT, THAT TWO WEEKS COULD TRANSLATE INTO VALUABLE TIME FOR ME TO COMPLETE MY VISA APPLICATION, GET MY MEDICAL CHECK-UP DONE, AND GET MY ASS ON THE PLANE ONE WEEK BEFORE SCHOOL OFFICIALLY STARTS TO SETTLE MY ACCOMODATION.
TO GIVE HIM A LITTLE CREDIT, I HAD INITALLY HANDED IN THE RELEVANT DOCUMENTS ALREADY. JUST THAT I HANDED IT IN A LONG LONG TIME AGO, WHICH MEANS THAT BY NOW, IT HAS ALREADY BEEN DISCARDED.
NOW TO GIVE HIM AN OVERFLOW OF DEMERIT POINTS, WHY DIDN'T HE ANTICIPATE THIS PROBLEM? WHY DID HE ONLY EXPLAIN THIS SCENARIO TO ME AFTER SO SO SO LONG (THIS MORNING) WHEN IN FACT HE SHOULD HAVE DONE SO WHEN I WAS DOING MY APPLICATION THAT I HANDED IN TWO WEEKS AGO? HE SOULD HAVE FUCKING ASKED ME TO RE-SEND!!!!!!
HIS INEFFICIENCY HAS COST ME DISTRESS AND NOW HE SOMEMORE HAS THE CHEEK TO TRY TO RUIN MY FUTURE AND LIFE BY ASKING ME TO WAIT AROUND UNTIL THE NEXT INTAKE ROLLS BY NEXT YEAR.
IF THIS ASSHOLE WAS MY DOCTOR, AND I WAS IN CRITICALLY ILL CONDITION, I WOULD PROBABLY JUST PULL THE PLUG AND LET MYSELF DIE AN INSTANT DEATH, THAN HIM LETTING ME 'OH, JUST HANG AROUND, MAYBE SHE WILL STILL BE ALIVE TWO WEEKS LATER.'
OKAY. I KNOW. IRRELEVANT. BUT I'M MAD. AND WHEN I'M MAD, ANYTHING GOES. EVEN NONSENSE. EVEN NONSENSE GOES UP IN MY BLOG.
Ok, back to topic. In short, who's causing me all these stress (now and later), causing me to miss orientation or putting me at risk of missing school a week or two?
YOUR 'LITTLE' MISTAKE HAS PUT MY FUTURE AND LIFE AT STAKE.
BIASED OR NOT, TO ME, THIS DO OFFICER CAN DO NO RIGHT.
