dashed minor

i’m officially crossed out by the school authorities.

to take a minor in communication studies.

GONE! GONE!

the option’s gone!

just because of my laziness and stupidity during my first inter-semestral session.

wtf.

and to think that the FAQ section in the school website stated very very clearly that

i can retake a module ten million times if i want to until i get a minimum of B to obtain the minor.

bloody liars.

i CAN’T retake it!

not even once!

ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

ok, ok.

i know it isn’t really the school’s fault.

at least they were nice enough to return my call and talk to me nicely.

it’s my own stupid fault for being so bloody lazy.

but hey, there was a false sense of security what…..

sigh.

another regret added to the already-long list of grievances.

please don’t remind me of the minor anymore, people.

i’ll give 3 days time to ask all the questions you want and break my heart till you are satisfied.

beyond this period, if anybody asks me anything about my plans to take up a minor again,

i swear i’ll clobber the person so hard on the head

he or she will forget to put toothpaste on a toothbrush before brushing.

grief aside (gosh, i’m getting dramatic)

i’m gonna start drafting an email asking for employment.

lol.

yeah, a bit early, considering that lessons haven’t even ended, let alone exams.

but hey, the early bird catches the worm.

and i just chatted with 2 of my ex-colleagues today over a free cup of tea,

and they were telling me the admin side is in a total mess,

thanks to the moving of the office.

mess = work

big big mess = lots of work

however, big big mess also equates to grumpy admin head.

so i shall start drafting a friendly email (guanxi! guanxi!)

which is short and sweet (so it doesn’t waste her time)

and offer my services (so i can help them clean up the mess)

and this tactfully phrased email has to be sent at a strategic time,

since these few days will be the worst, they’ve just moved in these few days.

so everyone will be in a bad mood and ignore my helpless email.

see? job-seeking is so tricky nowadays.

but if i manage to get $7.50/hr, it’s worth the trouble.

plus the possible 1.5 times OT pay.

i only work my brains for certain reasons.

messed up

now that i’m done surfing around trying to find out what other general electives i can take up next semester,

i discovered that with a grade D for CS100, i cannot even take the modules i wanted, like desktop publishing and simliar stuff.

wtf.

can’t do a minor.

can’t take up the modules for fun.

now i’m really depressed and pissed.

and next semester there’s nothing i’m interested in!

which means either i take it or leave it!

leave the ges to clear in the later semesters and i don’t have a million and one semesters left to clear my ges!

WHAT THE HELL?!

is this part of the plan to let us have fun while learning?!

what kind of screwed up system is this?!

the whole thing doesn’t work!

why can’t i be allowed to retake the bloody module!?

if they don’t want to let us retake they should have told us earlier in the first place!

then why bother giving us the wrong information?!

and i swear that the minimum B grade for some modules weren’t there a few semesters ago.

can the school stop being so fucking capricious?!

yes, its more of my fault than theirs.

but i’m totally pissed.

i don’t ever wanna talk about this issue anymore.

case closed.

forever.
