WoOoOoOo . . . .
31 01 2008i know that i have been slacking, and i do know that i have not updated this blog for a while. . . .
.
Its the things that we do that makes us realise how good things are to us, things like hard work pays off etc are always going to be there to let us know that we need to work it to get what we want. I may not say that i m satisfy because everything is not perfect for my liking in anyway possible because i demand alot even when it is little. I always have this when one is done: i need to do that part again, shouldn’t have done that, are you sure? is that right? i have no confidence whether it is proper until it is certified by someone else. I find it a pain, but i still need to make decisions and i do stick with it but these thoughts still hoover around my mind, to serve as a memo so that i wont repeat it again. Its an experience and it truly made a huge difference to my life because Architecture is something that i like and frankly i have not felt happier because it a wonderful field where art, science and technology come together, plus i love tech too ( Karen certifies me as an official GEEK . . . .) i would prefer the term Technosexual.
.
Well its results time
.
Yes the Horror of looking at the results that will make your face twist or blow and maybe somewhere in between.
.
I haven’t personally looked at the mail, but my mom broke the news to me since i wasn’t home
“I receive in the mail your result. . . . there is one missing though . . .”
I said i know because i was checking online and it seems that its not in till now !!!
“why didn’t you tell me that you knew ??? . . . .”
” he . . he . .”
.
.
.
I wouldn’t say my results were any good because it wasn’t what i expected it to be but i was thankful that i didn’t fail anything and whats more my Building Technology (Btech). I was worried that i may fail . . . . . it was a real relief that i didn’t
.
.
I called up Limkokwing University to check on my marks, and registry told me all 5 and left out CP (aka English) i asked why? it seems that to their justification was that my lecturer didn’t send in my result and insist that i contact my lecturer to send it to them so that they could keyed in. . . i requested him to pass me over to IH (English language Department)
.
“Hello IH, How may I help You?”
“Esnatul (my lecturer) please. . . “
“I m afraid i dont know anyone by that name. . . . “
“E-S-N-A-T-U-L”
“Wait ill check and see if there is anyone by that name. . . . “
“Hello . . . “
“Ezzy its me Derick. . . . registry said you didn’t submit my marks to them and i would like to know my marks . . . “
“I m not incharge in sending the marks . . . Juida is (The Head of IH aka The Witch) but i can tell you marks before moderation is an A-, Juida has the marks after moderation, you have to call her and asked her about it . . . . “
“Can i have her number??”
“she wont pick up . . .”
“oh. . . . . ” so we chatted for a while and i asked her about her master, her promotion bla bla bla - i was being nice ![]()
.
well i decided to email Juida . . . .
.
which she took
.
24 hours to reply!!
.
Derick,
I have sent your marks to your year leader, go and contact her and ask her to send it over. . . .
juida
.
Notice i have been pushed around - i feel like a pin-pong ball. . . .
.
So i called School again. . . .
.
“Hello Limkokwing University, How may i help you?”
“Fabe please (Faculty of Architecture & Built Environment)”
“Anyone in particular that you would want to speak to?”
“Umi (my year leader)”
“Please hold”
. . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . . .
“Hello . . . . Umi is having a meeting at this moment could you call back in 30 mins time”
.
.
30 minutes later. . .
.
“Hello Limkokwing University. . How may i help you?”
“Fabe please . . . i need to speak to Umi”
“please hold . . . .”
. . . . . . . .. . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . .. . . . . . . .
“Hello Umi is not in .. . . . call back later k”
“I m going to leave my number so that she can get back to me”
“sure. . . . . “
______________________
.
She did not get back to me. . . . .
.
.
Since i was so anxious to solve this asap . . . as i was reluctant, i press on the call button.
.
“Hello Limkokwing University, How may I help you?”
“Fabe . . . . Umi please. . .”
“Please Hold . . .”
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
“Hello. . . .”
“Is umi In?”
“No she is not . . . .”
“i need to talk to her, can you pass me her mobile number so that i can contact her asap so that i can solve my problem ?”
“Who is this? are you a student?”
“Yes i m a Student . . . “
“NO we dont pass lecturers numbers to students, its our policy”
“COME ON!!! I KNOW HER FOR HEAVEN SAKES!!!”
before i could pass my number so that Umi can call me back
she Hung up one me. . . . .
. . . . .
.
.
I was furious!!!!
.
I waited for awhile and call back again . . . .
.
“Hello Limkokwing University, How may i help you ?”
“I would like to make a complain!!”
“What about sir?”
“I called a moment ago and i needed to speak to Umi, i called numerous times yet failed to get through seemingly she is largely busy. I manage to get through to the faculty line where a lecturer that sits near her desk answered the call. She was an obnoctious lady that had no respect for students!. . . . It is not fair that these lecturers are allowed to teach in a school that charged us the students so much. . . it is a shame!. Despite her reluctance to pass me Umi’s mobile number, she hung up on me before i could pass my number so that she could get back to me. . . . Mind you to respect students! we are not normal students, we pay alot and we have a right to demand more even at the employees cost! we deserve it and we paid for it. As far as i know, i can have whomever number i please because of the university policy of open learning and student could contact lecturers at their pleasure. . . It is also a rude notion for her to do such a thing. It is the students that pay her pathetic monthly salary and if this is what she gives back thinking that she is a graduate and could act in this manner, i seriously think that she be sacked immediately !! She maybe a graduate but i believe she is not qualified to be a lecturer to teach in Limkokwing University . . . . .”
“Errrr . . . . . do you want me to pass you over to Umi?”
“Yes but this time, make sure she is on the line before you pass it over to me “
“Please hold . . .”
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . . . .. . . .
.. .. . . . . . . . . . ..
. .. . . . . . . . .. . . .
.
“I m afraid she is not in . . . . “
“Pass me back to Fabe then “
“Sure . . . “
“Hello. . . . Fabe how may i help you?”
“is Umi in??”
“Please hold . . . (from a distance UMI CALLLL!!!)”
“Alo . . .. “
“Its me Derick. . . .”
“Oh Hiiiiiiii. . . . . you want to know your result too?”
“On the contrary to that i want to Bla Bla Bla Bla (refer above) “
“o o o o o you hold on, ill go and take the list. . .
“Hmmm so did your lecturer tell you your moderated marks?”
“Nope. .. “
“hmmmm . .. over here you got a B+, don’t worry ill call registry and fix it for you. They may have left it out somehow or rather”
“Oh thanks . . . i do want an A tho . . . “
“Its like this, the moderators lower down alot of marks to keep the quota. . . many student fail and many of those who got an A were lowered down. . . No worries your fine, no fail. . . GPA quite nice. Your doing fine. . . “
“O O O O woooo waaaa but i still find it not fair. . . the moderation and all”
“Its like that, well work harder then for this coming sem. . . and oh i wont be your Year Leader anymore, its going to be Angeline (which i already have her number hehe)”
“SO whats your number then . . .”
“01X xXxXxX
“Dont worry ill fix it for you. . .”
“call me back when its done k “
“ok”
.
.
.
She didn’t call back . . . .
.
.
Well at least i got something done. . .
i m satisfied . . . and happy
i m smilling and so is my family too (they still don’t believe i can make it in Architecture)
i m gonna work harder to prove to them that being an architect is a whole lot better then being a Doctor!!
. . . .
I m smilling like a clam . . .
-bigger then this one
.
Ps: i m not the only student that got this, mind you i m just average- Frankie (he is the best in class i suppose ), Penny, Nadia and a few others were quite good too. .
