Trouble in school

School is becoming a big pain-in-the-ass. Making life difficult for me and all students alike, in an attempt to earn more money for themselves. Just because i chose a different path to reach my bachelor studies i am punished heavily for it.
I hope some government bodies will make rules and guidelines that bloody private schools like University of London has to follow and stop them from exploiting us too much. After paying so much before even starting my lessons proper, i still have to pay another few thousands for the examination papers and thousand of other nonsensical miscellaneous fees. Now after being in the course for close to four months, i get a letter telling me that my application has not been approved.
So continues another few months of worrisome wait to know the outcome of the appeal because apparently, over at the London side, there is one and only ONE person who has the ability to read and review four sheets of paper with words on it telling them why they should reconsider my application. Email seems too futuristic for them to handle therefore everything should be done via snail mail thus extending the time needed for the result to get back to Singapore.
My advice to those who are considering joining this "WONDERFOOL" school. Do not be shy to bug the coordinators to get what you want. For the amount that has been paid and will be paying in time to come, this is the minimum expectation you should have of them.

hey prissy....
so shitty to waste so much time and money like that. Maybe you should consider switching course?

don't be afraid bout having to meet new people lah, its your future you are talking about lei. and like i said, you make friends easily, anyway, so shouldnt be a problem getting to know a new class.

well, hope everything goes fine in the appeal.

Cheers, jo
