Piece of Mind

Well... it was certainly the first time i attended a showdown of this sort... probably cos i was concerned for my own welfare... hehe... there were some heated discussion and blunt remarks at times... but most of it turned out to be quite crappy with repetitive questions n cocky answers... well... much was trashed out in that two and a half hour session... some were very direct... which was good as it captured everyone's attention... most spoke reservedly... i was straining to hear as i stood all the way at the back... The verdict? No guarantees... no absolute promises of exemption... no power? Bureaucracy it seems... all too often have we heard of excuses like I shall bring this up in the next meeting... I shall refer to so-and-so... Not entirely a satisfying close to the dialogue... just hope he actually keeps his word on seriously bringing up this matter to his superiors... too often have they adopted a lackadaisical attitude in the past... can we be optimistic about it? And i quote... forcing 4000 rebellious students in will bring about more probs in campus...
