I just came back after another day of wasted hours. The National Library sucks. They just implemented this new rule - all bags have to be deposited outside in the locker which only accepts 20c coins, and only can bring in blank paper and stationery. WTF. I asked the guard why and he said "OH, cos we don't want people to tear the books." So, I shot straight at his face "So if I leave my bag outside does that mean I won't tear books?!"
Guard: If you're not happy you can talk to the librarian
Me: Sure, I will.
So I went in and spoke to the librarian. Before I finished talking, she interrupted me, and I felt it was damn rude, so I told her, "Will you please listen to me?!" HAHA. I'm such a bitch. Actually, I knew it's cos they don't want us to do our own revision there, but to go to such an extent to restrict what we want to bring in is treating us like little kids. I asked what if I want to use the references in the library to supplement my notes and I have to bring in my notes? The librarian said they have to VET the notes. Are such measures necessary? The bloody library is so huge and yet there's no allowance for students to study? It's ridiculous! Especially the stupid guard. Asshole. I'm gonna write in to the Straits Times forum.
So after I helped Jiangshui, we went to town to meet vin. Thanks jiangshui for paying for my zinger meal haha. KFC, yay. I think I'm losing it. Big time. I missed my stop when coming home, and the worst thing is, I wasn't even asleep. Shit. I really have to pull myself together.. today was really bad. I think it's pretty obvious that I'm not very happy about things, and I'm just glad that there are people here to make the ordeal easier for me and to alleviate the anguish. Sigh. Why are things so messed up now.
