Boiling pot

So what do you do when you are frustrated and you feel like exploding into an enraging scream like a pressure pot waiting to burst out its hot steam? I don’t know. That what I’m feeling right now.

I am at what people would call a relaxed place, a coffee house yet I am extremely jumpy because I am waiting to check out my final exam results. This is the first time my university has announced the results so early on. Indeed it was too good to be true to know the results so soon. I have gotten as much 500 internal server error messages as the number of shit that ‘bombs away’ from a flying flock of pigeons. This is terrible. Of all the IT services fees I pay to them every semester, I’d expect a working server ready to face restless students who eagerly want to know their results. This is just plain stupid. I wonder why I expect the best out of services I pay for. -___-

Sometimes if you’re lucky, you can get into the Home page but then you are cut off like sausage when you get into the User sign in page. If you’re not lucky at all, the dreaded ‘Internal server error’ page will appear before you. I guess my luck has gotten a tiny bit better now, the pages are loading at a sloth’s pace. Yes sloth, animals that I find slower than snails.

It is at this kind of uneasy enraging situations that one’s patience is truly tested. I think I f-bombed MMU a couple of times on facebook and twitter and I almost lash out on my friends for being conveniently offline all of a sudden when I ask them to help me check my results. Turns out the connections has been bad since afternoon says one friend, right. I let it slide, I’m still sane enough to realize our friendship is worth more than knowing my results right now. Patience tested.

So here I am, sitting in a coffee house, people relaxing, couples chattering with whiffs of coffee in the air. Thank god I wasn’t this frustrated just now when a couple and their baby were sitting next to me. The baby kept crying and screaming, I could have exploded and done an ugly thing O_O

The page is still loading. I only see the top banner of the page and nothing more. 10 minutes have passed. Patience tested again. A paper straw on the table next to me just fell down.

Nothing beats waiting in frustration and not knowing what to do than waiting in frustration and not having anything to do. It’s not like I have other things to tend to while waiting for the page to load or take my mind off things. It sucks that I am very vacant right now and all I can so is stare at the spinning green loading circle…hence I am writing this entry here!

Check Facebook. Nothing.

Check Twitter. Nada .

Check Flickr. You must upgrade to a pro account to view your pictures in the future. What a fucking rip off!

Wait a minute! I have a blog and there appears to be a few entries that I can kepo, I mean, read! OK! Off I go! Tudeloo~
