Local Uni and Their Idiots
Local university students,and policy makers,and adminstrators are a bunch of fools.
Don't believe me?Just step into one,and you'll know what I'm bitching about.
Tell you what,I'll save you the trouble, and spare you the patience-challenging trip.Here's and example of the fools they make of us.
Just the other day, I had a test at 8 in the morn.The University feeder bus apparently comes to the bus stop in front of my apartment at 7.40am. So Mai Yin and I were at the stop at 7.30am.We waited for a full 30 minutes,yet the bloody bus didn't come.So in the end,we had to wake jo up and ask her to send us to campus.No prizes for guessing who arrived late for the paper.
The night before,a friend informed us that we had to go to Jabatan Bendahari to get our Student Account Statement. On the same day, we were supposed to collect our exam slips. I thought I'd do whats important first,and skip the Jabatan Bendahari.
But then I get a message saying that we would only be given our slips when we produce an account statement that shows the balance as zero(as in,we dont owe the uni anything) and pay RM60 for our graduation fee.The nerve!
Anyway,i decided to be skema and went to take the Account Statement. But I wasn't gonna pay the damned graduation fee, coz I had no money.
You won't believe the state of the Jabatan Bendahari. It was worse that a fish market. There was pushing and shoving, all kinds of odours, all kinds of characters. To add to the 'professionalism' of the office, the staff were yelling the names of the students.
There was this dumbass girl,who pushed her way through and found herself next to me.
She looked at me and said, "I want to put my matrix card in the box in front".
I was in a foul mool,what with all the surrounding 'civility'.
So I stared at her and said, "So what do you want me to do?"
She was stunned. I guess she expected me to make way for her.
Two words. To Hell.
She can wait like everyone else.
There was this other girl whom Mai Yin told off for pushing people. She had the nerve to tell Mai yin that she needed to het her Statement.
Yeah. And everyone else just loves chilling at the Jabatan Bendahari.
Mai Yin told her to wait for her turn. And she told her friend next to her that Mai Yin was rude. I guess they thought she was a banana.
Mai Yin glared at her and said,"why,you graduating tommorow issit?"
That shut her up.
I noticed all the other skema students queuing to pay for their graduation jubah. I couldn't bloody be bothered.
When I finally got my statement and left the stinking crowd, i skimmed through the print-out and noticed this:
Yuran Bas: RM 25
The cheek.
Charge me bus fee for phantom buses. That got me seething even more.
Stupid buses are never on time,if they actually do come. They're even slower than the big, fat mutated iguanas at the Aman lake. Sometimes an hour can pass and still there'll be no sign of that RM25-a-month ride. Then after an hour,four buses will come in a row. Like some friggin convoy.
How so very unnerving!!
Anyway, we then continued on our journey to the Dewan Peperiksaan at the other end of the campus to get our examination slip.
Imagine this, the lady just wanted to see my matrix card. She gave me my slip and didn't ask for my statement. Not at all.
That made me even more flustered.To think I wasted an hour getting the useless statement. It was my faut too, I guess. Being skema and following the crowd.
What a way to start a morning. Oh well, I got to let it all out during Vocal Class.
There're more stupid things that stupid people do here.That, I'll save for coming entries.

so sorry to hear your experience. during our time (BTW, i think you are my junior) we didn't had to get the statement from Bendahari. If we had any 'hutang' with the University, they will not let us graduate. That's all. :)
I emphatize, had the same problems as you, the bus service sucks, the bendahari are a bunch of morons and the red tape to get anything done is tremendous, plus the admins are apes. Well one good thing would be the uni graduates would be ready to face the big bad world cause I think nothing can be more of a headache than to deal with the local uni admin.
hi, i just wait for them to send me my account statement. it worked just fine, even up to my graduation. heh.
ItchyMicchi
Hehe.. welcome to the big bad world of bureaucracy.. Just have to learn to cuss and learn to deal with it.. And by the way, that's nothing compared to what some of the normal government departments are like.. I came from a private uni btw =P.. small population, coconut trees, bayou breeze.. haha
