Back in Brisbane, Back to Reality

I'm finally back in Brisbane, but will be leaving this Wednesday for my cousin's wedding in Sydney. I'll probably be staying at the Star Casino with my family till Sunday. Talk about damages, my pockets been fully burnt! I feel so exhausted, no more airplanes for me. 0_o Thank god we were in business class so yay, comfy chairs rule!
Things to do before Sydney:
  • Enrolment for next semester
  • Pick up credit transcripts
  • Print out two of my assignments and send them off by post
  • Pay off bills
  • Unpack and pack for Sydney
  • Manicure/Pedicure
  • Take mom for her dental appointment

Reckon that's possible complete do in a day? Yes, except all the places I got to go are all far apart! Now I gots ta go change my bed sheets and clean up the house abit! I'll try to post up more pics from Malaysia if I have time!

Btw, I forgot to bitch. The fucking university lost my first assignment which was mailed to them. Here's what they emailed me:

Hi Sharon,

I trust all is going well for your for the Course and I look forward to marking your first assignment.

University records show that your Assignment was received on December 19 2005. However - for reasons unexplained to me - your Report has gone astray in theinternal mail system - and it has not appeared in my mail box for marking.

I realise that Assignment 2 is due shortly - so what I am proposing to do until the original appears - is that you email me a copy of Assignment 1. I will be able to review it and offer any points for improvement that would need to be made for when you complete Assignment 2.

I do apologise for the inconvenience, however the sooner you can email me Assignment 1 - the sooner I will be able to provide feedback via email.

Regards,
xxxxx.

So I sent them the Assignment 1 the same day I received the email which was on the 18th January. Tell me what's the date now, and assignment 2 is already due tomorrow. Like, thanks for replying and for the feedback! They also fucked up the date of receipt which is suppose to be 13th December, the day that I sent my assignment by post as required to them. According to the guidelines, the date of receipt is based on the day the post has been sent for external students.

I sent them another email to enquire if they've received my Assignment 1 and about the complications in the due date. It has been a few days already, did they reply? Noooo! Screw them! Wait... I think I'm the one who's screwed! :(

Bleh.. hate university.. they always f**k things up. Same thing happened to my physics lab report, and they threatened to give me 0 marks! To HELL with them. It so happens that, the lab assistant mistakenly put it in his bag. Check out my blog for some mushroom head photos, if ya know what i mean!
