i'm a PR now babehhh HAHAHHA finally finally. had it all done today cos i have a sudden offday due to sufficient number of girls working today pheww, if not i'll prolly never get my pr forever. anyways, the whole experience at the immigration today SUCKED to the max ok!
-
first of all i arrived there at NINE am when its officially opened at 8, and guess what i was already number 112. like hello its a weekday lehh why so crowded?! and when i got my queue number the counters are already serving up to like no 60 smth so i thought it wouldnt take long. in the end i waited freaking 3 hrs till it was my turn cos they keep skipping numbers wth. its bloody annoying can! its like one moment they're calling for 99 and the next one is 78, is that making sense to you?!?
-
at noon when its FINALLY my turn, the woman asked for my student pass and i said its cancelled alr cos the expiry date is over. and she was like 'oh so now you're here on a social visit pass? we are not supposed to grant you pr like that leh'. SHOCK OF MY LIFE pls the letter said i can still complete my pr within 2 months ok, and plus i'm already granted pr just that i havent done the formalities shit yet. GRR.
-
fine, so i fought for my case and she said she needed proof that i'll still be studying here omigod la i never bring all the acceptance letters and stuff. so i had to cab back home just to get those letters, and cabbed back to ica. heng she allowed me to cut queue, if i had to wait anth 3 hrs i think i'll explode there and then.
-
after that she told me to have lunch first cos i still need to be referred to anth counter for ic application and the wait will be pretty long again. so ke lian me went to ica cafeteria to have lunch all by my poorself:(:( took the corner table sumore, such a loner lol.
-
then i went back up and waited for abt 15 mins ( sounds pretty short uh cos i took a 30 mins lunch) until it was my turn to have my fingerprints taken and stuff for ic. thats not the end>:/ still gotta go to yet anth counter for them to release my pr cert and my passport. and so i waited another THREE HOURS and only left the building at six pm. can you believe that, i spent 9 freaking hours there. my re-entry permit is valid for 5 yrs so on may 20th 2013 i'll have to relive the whole stupid experience again. i'm alr dreading it seriously.

but then again, i guess this is the price i have to pay for much cheaper education and all. oh well, hello S8974995F, byee F2808692W
