When I write this blog I have many questions in my heavy brain till I unable to lift up anymore, so I type this blog post only look partly of the computer screen. My sickness of combination of fever, cough, flu and throat ache is getting on me to transform me into a zombie, but I am not dead yet. Do you have this feeling that when you think your about to get back on track from your miserable life but only to be throw into the deeper pit of death? I just got serve by the beloved UTAR student administration department. This is going to be good as we continue to navigate this whole event.
The MUET test started on one week ago that I unable to attend due to my sickness that probably caused by the haze. I could not wake up and stand on own as the medicine drained out all my strength. So I missed the MUET speaking test. After a few days I visited the administration near the CEE department to obtain further information. They told me the exam is still on but it was almost over. I rushed down to the basement floor of where MUET test was taking in place. So this was what they said at that time, I still remember the date and time, Wednesday 12 pm. I was too late to join the test but lucky me, they told me I could come next week to attend the LAST EXAM at either 7.30 am or 11.30 am on Monday. So I let my adrenaline lays low as I heard the news. I went home and prepared the exam.
Then you know you are dead wrong to trust UTAR officers in 100%, I am so sorry I have to be passive aggressive to write this because I want it this way. Today, I have Japanese language class from 8 am to 12 pm. So I let my lecturer knows my condition and then I rush to the UTAR building of where the test is taking place. I reach there at 11 am sharp and I am still in a good mood as I am thinking I made it on time. Then it happens again,the test ends with only morning section as this is what UTAR staff told me. I have to cancel my class early to walk all the way to exam hall only to get this piece of information, talk about efficiency. This is so funny that I don't even know why that the student administration department can always make so many mistakes in all over the place and this is not the first time. Why people think it is OK to give wrong information out the students to mess up their study life is beyond my imagination, I guess the staff don't care for the jobs for whatever reason, then so be it. I feel so retard right now as I continue to type, do the UTAR staff think I am stupid and dumb to even bother to ask them question? Is it too demanding and fussy to ask for a little help with correct answer. As I leave the building, I see the MUET test exam direction note in A4 paper, the 2nd session of the exam starts at 10.30 am! This is like someone just punch you in the stomach while you are eating without expectation that a punch is going to launch to your gut.
As I try to calm down to regain my consciousness and intelligence, I must say I have my wrong to be blame. I am so sorry I have to skip the test as I can't move my ass from my stinky bed. I am so sorry that I trust the people who handle this matter, I should have report this whole issue to the UTAR president before I skip another test, so that I can get double confirm with trustful answer with the name of prestigious UTAR president. Well, I guess I am well prepared right now for another shenanigan in the making. Hope they don't try too hard to mess me up though.
This scenario has inspire me to learn the hard lesson of life, never put all eggs in one basket. Because most people don't care about others as they only focus on themselves, that include me. Everybody has live in a selfish society that empathize fortune and prestige. People nowadays are too busy lining their pocket and befriend with upper-class people to further their agenda. So if a person wishes to survive in the concrete jungle, he must only count on his own. This hard lesson has significant impact on me in social communication. I am definitely more guard up and careful whenever I deal with other people on formal issue like this. I will learn to trust people more in the future as I gradually forget this horrible experience as times flies, but not now. Now I need to further negotiate with administration department to seek for any solution to clean this mess.
Last I'm not going to write any word of how UTAR can improve the administration because it is just too much to handle for them. They will continue to get complaint from other students as days pass. In the end of the day, you pay what you get. With low tuition fee, there will always be students who eagerly to join UTAR.
Now you feel me...
