Variations on My Guitar Frets

* And I had a bad day. Real bad.

This week began with such promising matters that I look forward to. Yesterday was spelndid, considering that I managed to overcome the overpopulation of butterflies in my gut and ended up the meeting with UCSI student affairs office with problems solved. Lower t shirt price, high amount of sponsorship. Nothing could had been better until today..

You see, today's the internal deadline for ucas application, which means my application to universities in UK should be submitted by today! I finally finalized my personal statement in the morning. And got everything prepared before 12pm. yap. emphasize on the 12pm*.

Anyway, everything's done, checked, ticked. until i click the ''button'' summit.

Shocked. I stared at the screen opened jaw. okay then. try again.

-credit card security code invalid-

ER, wat's going on? nvm, retry. at this point of time, i called my dad, got myself another security code. suspected that the previous one was wrong.

-credit card security code invalid!!!-

GOSH. my patience is challenged. retry. retry.

-CREDIT CARD SECURITY CODE INVALID!!-

N for like the seventh time, after thousands of call to my dad, interrupting his meeting each time his phone rang. I clicked submit one again.

Hola~ finally, something different appeared.

OMG.

finally, the red alert came.

Trying real hard not to panic. I went to UCSI IUPC- the department tat's supposed to deal with my prob. Miss Ernie's on leave for the whole week. And the department is currently dealing with dentistry ppl's application and hardly have any time to deal with pharmacy's one. Since dentistry's deadline is officially today. Alright then. What next? I was told to call MABECS.

ring ring. (okay. I'm trying to make this post not so serious n heavy. lol )
MABECS answered, passed the line around n I ended up with a consultant. Told my problem, n I was asked to called the UK number stated above.

wait a sec, UK number!!?? take note. it says it will cost no more than 9 pounds per minute. which means at least rm54 per minute of phone call!!!!! gosh. it's gonna cost me a BOMB. FAINT*

Credits to Aylwin's postpaid phone, I rang that number. And u know wat. 11++am in malaysia is actually 4++am in UK! n the working hours in UK is from their 8.30am to their 6pm. so i Figured out that the only way is to call after 5pm. sigh.

7pm. I reached klang. straight away ran to the house phone and start calling.
''Nombor yang anda dial tiada dalam perkhidmatan kami''

=/

No matter how desperately I repeated dialing, Varying the phone number, hoping to be lucky or watsoever, Failure strikes non-stop. hopeless, despair. sigh.

So, in the end, I called miss joanne uneasily. Yea, she's nice. She even joked with me. N definitely, I tried to be nice. She'll contact miss Ernie and try to solve in for me then. When all hope has lost, thx to her, she'll be helping me.

Undeniably The whole process was draining. tiring. Each effort bounced back with more despair. The more optimistic I am, The more failure I get. Throughout the day, yes, I am not panic, but, I just cant help it to feel unhappy, uneasy. This thingy is going to cost my future afterall, how can I just be happy go lucky over it?

Nway. the day was bad. And my application is not even done till now. And this conclude the day.
Oh ya. I hit my toe hard on my bro's bed. Severe internal bleeding. ANd it hurts.

Sigh. I shall deal with it no matter how. no choice.
Tomolo's family trip. hope it'll turn the whole world around. And once again, make me happie..

Tough day. Goodnite.
