i was hardly surprised when that happened, not least because i expected it to happen, but rather because there was every possibility for screw ups like these to happen in that place all day long.

i do not wish to undermine the purpose of directives, regulations etc., but when time and time again these papers become obstacles in the whole process flow, then they're better off not followed.

i just hope that the 6 years in a statutory board will yield more happiness than frustrations arising from such bureaucracy. if i was brave enough i will not take up this offer, but the lure of an overseas experience is too strong too be ignored.

today capped off a terrible week where i lost $150 unnecessarily, got dumped with a pile of work and played badly in a soccer game from which I returned with more cut marks on my knee than smiles on my face.
