I can honestly say that I do not quite understand this whole paper-turning business and obsession with dates. I thought my papers were in order, I really did - but as it turns out, no, someone just had to fuck with me. I went to pay my tuition in order to get my last papers and they said no, you cannot, you have to wait until the eight of September. I admit, I was astounded.
"But my visa expires in seven days - why can I not pay my tuition now?"
"Because you are not an old student."
"Why does it matter?"
"It just does."
"But why?"
"It just does."
"Then can you make an exception because of circumstances and unforeseen events that was caused, in fact, by the university and not me personally?"
"No."
Sometimes. Oh, sometimes I wonder. What am I doing here again?
If this doesn't work itself out within two days I will have to book a flight to Korea. Don't get me wrong, I would love to go to Korea, just not right now. I speak only "I love you" in Korean and quite frankly, I cannot afford to go. Sweden is not even an alternative and Hong Kong is Money away. I wish I had chosen another university - I never had these kind of issues in Sichuan.
I miss Home, I miss Chengdu. 사랑해!
