off for another trip

Thursday, May 25th, 2006

going to KK on sunday. Driving there with my parents…. Harvest Festival!

Still going round in circles due to the naturally complicated sheaths of documents and references and s**t I have to go through… multiplied by the number of unis I planned to apply for just in case….. darn… what the heck is it about applications that makes one’s head spin in all different dimensions~?!?!?!?!?!?!

Going to pop into the British Council in KK for a while to see if anything can be done to speed up the application stuff… darn it. I Don’t have references!!! How on earth am I supposed to find references when MMU is in cyber while I’m bloody HERE?????! Darn it….

Ok… deep breath…..

Enough ranting for now….

AND my darn firewire isn’t working for laptops….

ARGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~!!!!!

ho hummmmm~

yeah… a no go for the july intake for New Zealand~! Jeeez…. I am SOOOOO not happy about that… but whatever…. stuff like these can’t be helped I guess….

Looking for unis in the UK now, instead of New Zealand. Thinking of getting my masters at one go, finish the stuff in 1 year, as apposed to the 2 and a half years required for NewZ. Try my luck over at the UK before flying over to NewZ for a year or two, if possible. Howver, if things go the way it did for the past 2 intakes, (i.e. when shit hits the fan and all else fails) I still have this backup of going to NewZ for my 2nd hons degree for media in Victoria U. Reserved the space, just in case. All it needs is the IELTS, which I didn’t have enough time to complete and send in for THIS particular intake. *sigh* Might even turn out to be better, since regardless of what anyone says, getting a degree in the UK does sound more appealing to most employers out there in this world…..

*mutters grumbles* …………..

good grief
