Complains about school, baby, friend.....simply life!

Yucky day! Met up with my sec sch friends and had a nice chat...besides that, it's all so yucky!

Coolie

Yea....that's me...call me ms demure coolie... Went to help my father carry goods yesterday. Each box is 20-30kg, and there are 3000 of them!! Though there are 2 trolleys for transporting them, the boxes still need human labour to carry it onto the trolley and off the trolley into storeroom to pile them up.

As a demure GIRL, just 20kg is already heavy for me, not to mention piling them higher and higher and higher (luckily my macho bro did most of the piling at the top).....

When my gripping strength drops, i used my arms to support. When my arms are in pain, I used my hip bones ('cos tummy not big enough...hee...). When I can't find my hip bones fast enough, I used my lap to support.

School a.k.a Money Sucking Machine

1. Transcript

Have been reading the transcript website for few times...and I can't find any clear instructions/information about delivering transript by post to local address. So when I went to school in the morning to apply transcript, I didn't fill up the section on the collection and planned to ask the Registra lady at Office of Finance...

Still holding on to the form and before I can say anything...
Staff: Fill in this section first, then pay at the cashier.
Me: Check with you first, if I like to have my transcript deliver to a local address...
Staff: (harsh tone) You did not read the website properly, how can you come and apply for transcript?
Me: (HELLO?!? Where the h*** did you learn your manners from??) I READ. I wanna ask, is it free? 'cos the site only said about overseas delivery.
Staff: Yes, it's free.
Me: hmm. (left without thanking...she dun deserve it)

No manners leh!!!! Eating during office hour, talking while eating, scolding people before hearing them out.... I'm only thankful she didn't spit out any piece of food onto my form.

How much is 1 transcript?
$5.25!!!
And how much is 1 transcipt from NTU?? FREE!!!

2. Gown

After 16 years of education, our big day is finally here.

How much is 1 gown? $47.25 if purchase, $30 if rent!!!
How much is 1 graduation gown in NTU? FREE!!! And you get to keep it!!!

3. Plaque

And there are some booths selling plaques at the gown collection venue.

How much is 1 plaque?
$80+ to $100+, self collection
How much is 1 plaque selling in NTU?
$78 with free home delivery
Why there's a diff in price?
'cos the poor booth tenant a.k.a plaque seller has to pay $15k per booth cum commission for each plaque they sell...to the school! And there are around 10,000 fresh graduates every year, while there are only around 4,000 from ntu....get it?

Luckily I'm not medicine student....I dun need any plaque for my bachelor degree.

NTU friend A: we paid higher school fees leh...so we deserve this kinda welfare k
Me: eh....$2k+ per sem is also money loh. And there are little things here and there which they will charge us for leh....

Another conversation...an amended, summarised, , protected, more 38 version...
NTU friend B: hey my cousin couldn't get into NTU engineering this year leh, but he got into your school!
Me: WHAT?!? last time is opposite leh...why like that??
NTU friend B: i heard 'cos their school fees increase this year, so they wanna take in more more MORE students
Me: (no QC anymore?!) ok best!! $$ is more important than the value of our degree.

What more can i say....

Baby

After complaining non stop to my friend at the bus stop, I board my bus feeling quite shitty, and sat between a girl and a near 3 years old baby. The baby is obese...but okay lah, babies are meant to look cute and smile at...so i smiled at her like what all other around me did, though I really really really no mood to have any expression on my face.

Just when my butt is warming the seat up, the girl on my right wanna get off the bus. She stood up and elbowed my right arm where my big bruise is.....ouch..... Then immediately, I felt water falling onto my left arm....the baby is playing with her saliva!!! KAO! Although she's still a baby, I feel disgusted with all the saliva bubble around her fat cheeks loh... And she stared at me like I'm an animal in the zoo....maybe she know I put on a fako smile just now...but watever... I glanced around and nobody is looking, so I diao diao diao her hard...send her all my stop-all-your-crap brainwave and thinking at the same time: why must I smile at her in the first place? 'cos everyone expect me to be friendly to a baby? Will they think I'm some kinda bian tai if I diao her.... Just then, I noticed from the corner of my eye an auntie is turning her head towards my direction, and my diao-ing became a smile... I'm so disgusted by myself!!! super fako girl!!!

Her auntie oppo me took her away for 2nd around of milk feeding in 20 min....thank buddha!

Friend

Wanted to complain about him asking me what jobs I have applied whenever we are having conversation...but who knows, he may get to read the blog so better not talk bad about him too much. My friend suggested me to block him in msn. Nice suggestion....I will seriously consider.


I'm evolving into a complain queen....jia lat jia lat....rotting at home for almost a month makes me sick!
