On Cloud 9
I just lost 24 fan to some idiot in Mahjong 3+1, and then some idiot zi-mou just before I win my one-dragon tile (I had 1wan to 9wan straight flush)!! I was waiting for 2circles and that idiot, one seat before me, zi-mou 2 circles. SHIT!!!!!!!
So, I was declared bankrupt and forced to leave the game. So here I am, blogging about my day ponteng from work!!
Haha...But you know what? I'm super happy today!
Happy. Elated. Delighted. Ecstatic. Overjoyed. Thrilled. Euphoric.I had been super depressed for the past few days because I got a C+ for my TCM.
C+++++++++++++++++++!!! *weeps*
Its an 6AU module and I seriously just couldn't afford to get a C+.
Not even a B-. NOT EVEN B OK????
Especially when you thought you did very very well, and then you get an C+.
That feeling is simply.................horribly INDESCRIBABLE!!!
From that very fateful I saw that disgusting C+ till today, I coaxed myself to believe that it was a mistake. A grave mistake made by my school. So later that day, I tried to login to Studentlink to check my grades again to make sure that my eyes were playing tricks on me that morning.
But I couldn't.I couldn't log in to Studentlink at all. So I sent many many emails to everyone and begged them that I need to see my results again or else I will die of anxiety and depression.
But no one replied my emails. Because everyone was happily enjoying the holidays while I grieved over my very pathetic C+.
And so I try, at least 20 times each day for 6 days in a row, to login to Studentlink in hope that my C+ has turned in to an A.

Until this afternoon, CITS replied me:
Dear Audrey,
We have rectified the problem about your login. Please try again and feedback to us.
Thank you and have a nice day.
Regards,
CITS Helpdesk (Lam)
So I immediately open a new tab and check my results again.
There it was.
BMS203 C+Staring back at me, while I stared at it.
ULTIMATE SIAN-NESS!!!
So I immediately emailed Miss Irene Tay, the know-it-all in SBS, no offence intended, but she really knows and handles everything like a thousand-hand-Buddha. If SBS ever loses either Irenes, it will be hell. Anyway, back to the email, so i immediately emailed Irene (my 4th email to her, after one email to Qin wei, and another to Irene Seet) and practically begged her:
Dear Miss Irene Tay,I have been upset for the last 6 days after seeing that horrible persistent C+ on my result slip. Please tell me that that is just an illusion, that I indeed, really, did not got an C+ for a freaking 6au module. That you graded me based on a 70%, and not a 100% grade. (On a side note, I missed the CA, you see). Please, please, please, PLEASSSSSSSSSSEEEEE!!!! If you still don't tell me, I need to spend (waste) S$10.50 to appeal and that really will make me more upset. Thank you very much.Yours truly,A very upset and pathetic 4th year 3rd class Honors student.:(No, those are really not my exact words.
BUT the true intention written between the lines.
I was practically BEGGING her to tell me that i did not get a C+.
No more than 5 minutes after I went to shit all the bad luck stucked inside me for the past 6 days and returned to the computer to play Mahjong 3+1 to drown my sorrows, Miss Irene Tay, my angel for the day, replied my email:
Hi Audrey,
I have checked and you are indeed granted exemption for BMS203 Continual Assessment, which means that your BMS203 will be based on 100% weightage on examinations.
Your BMS203 grade was graded without the above considerations.
The School would like to apologize for the error and will revise and update your BMS203 examination marks by mid-February 2008.
Do let me know if you have any further queries.
Irene Tay I was sooo bloody happy, I practically floated from my seat. And shouted "Yes, yes!!"
Just like immersing in an uncontrollable orgasm *coughs*
But YES, i was(am) OVERJOYED!!
So I sent a very polite email to confirm that i DID NOT got a C+.
And she replied,
No problem Audrey, as it is our mistake.
Hope the error has not created too much ‘worries in you.
Enjoy yourself before school starts next week.
Irene God, "too much worries" is an understatement.
But at least I very happy now.
Later, I am going to the temple with my remaining two-dollar bill in my Gucci wallet (pathetic rite?) to thank Kong-zi.
Wahahaha..... :)
