nah, uk is a place full of nuts. Let's talk about my accommodation application.
round 1)
mo is being rejected by ucl accommodation for late application ( my form reached them 2 days late because they dun work on weekends and my form stayed at their postoffice). though they stated on both websites and reply postcard that whether or not u get a housing in ucl, they will inform mo by 5th sept. However, the notice NEVER came, and mo had to call over just to be informed that she's gona be homeless when she reaches london.
nvm
round 2)
mo called again to check if she's at least on their waitinglist. the answer is that they considered her application and put her data into their computer already but no, she's not on their waitinglist, so mo asked how can she be on, then they said by applying..-_____-'''' and mo said she know by applying but how to apply...the brit sighed and sighed and sighed, mo thinks that she thought mo is retarded. but anw, mo rather be seen as a retard than to have no house. later, the person told mo how to apply and the deadline(which is the day itself) to apply to be on waitinglist. only when mo went to the given website did she realise that the housing's not ucl housing but intercollegiate halls. nvm, mo's desperate.
round 3）
applied for intercollegiate hall. received email on 12th night that i have to send in my deposit and acceptance form by 5pm14th sept. and im like it's weekends! sent in email, they din reply. rushed down to postoffice the nxt day and sent by speedpost but it said that have to take 2-4 working days to reach. then mo went home, tried to call nutford hall, both the phone line and email were shut cos of weekends. when u call, u hear" the number you have called is invalid" when you email. the email gets bounced back, this continued way into spore time 15th's afternoon.
round 4)
finally mo received email reply from nutford ( the email she sent on friday night), the bloody brits now then tell her that:

guess what, mo received it at 1044pm 15th sept spore time, which is 344pm london time and she has to sent in the form before 1059pm spore time to meet the 4pm london time deadline. but luckily, due to asian's high efficiency, mo did it.
round 5)
then mo got this reply from them just now asking mo to send in 2 passport photos no later than 1st sept...-_________________-'''''''''''' mo is gona faint liao....
