Behind the scenes, MARA

Don't you just hate how Memes can express our emotions so accurately? Grr.

You seriously do not know how much of a roller coaster ride MARA/JPA selection process. Days or dreadful waiting and inefficient database programming by MARA/JPA. Like they simply couldn't find a better thing to 'troll' us around with. I can just imagine the officers in MARA say, "Oh, come on. Let's have some fun with the selection for our Scholarship and Loan this year. I mean, most of the candidates are really good. They know they'll be chosen. Surely they won't be effected by some glitch on their results slip, right?". PFFT. YEAH RIGHT. This is our future we're talking about! For some of us, it's between our life and death! Imagine if you have a rope by your neck and suddenly somebody feels like playing with a pole that triggers the floor beneath you. NOT. COOL.

And guess what? It doesn't ends there. Most of us checked our confirmation letters and there some mix-up for our courses and colleges. Some of us got different courses/colleges compared to the previous result slips. I don't mean to sound obnoxious or anything but, it's certainly not a fun joke for them to play with this or do this changes to our agreement *if it was permanent* without our consent. I mean, we made their work much easier by choosing our preferred courses, why can't they follow them through until the end? The least they can do is to inform us about it.

Bottom line, tomorrow most of us will be calling the helpline to discuss about this mix-up or so called changes that they made. I hope it's just a mix-up. I really do. Because you seriously do not know what I had been through and let go off just to get to the position that I am right now. I may have just started my tertiary level of studies and look like I have nothing to lose. But trust me when I say, I'm done with disappointing those whom have so much hope for my better and brighter future ahead.

Pray hard for me too. InsyaAllah.
