Bang head against wall

So...the UW Madison grad school has been dragging its feet in giving my visa paperwork to the program coordinator for my future department (Comparative Biomedical Sciences). They finally gave it to the coordinator on Friday, but she couldn't FedEx it at the time since she didn't have my phone number. GROAN.

Yet another time zone issue - when the email reached my account it was 4:27am here, meaning 2:27pm Madison time, which is office hours, but the dead of the night in Malaysia.

I'm not terribly worried about not getting my US visa in time for my 20 December flight date, as it only takes 1 day at the embassy in KL, but having so little time for contingencies is making me nervous as a rabbit. I only hope the coordinator is nice enough to go to the office on Saturday to send my stuff, instead of waiting till Monday. I really don't want to be applying for a visa 2 days before I fly.

This post doesn't really have a point, just lepaskan geram only. I really don't want it to degenerate into one of the multitudinous boring "story of my life" blogs, even though my only readers are personal friends and acquaintances anyway. Hi, guys.
