This morning I went to school dormitory to sign-up a room and pay its rental for the next semester. As I entered the lobby a TV was broadcasting the news of our presidency being thanked by an US official. All people in the lobby were appreciated and some became excited. A person shouted: Thank you ministry. After a prolonged waiting time, it’s finally my turn. The person inside the counter reviewed my registration form and replied “Yo orzzz, unfortunately the room you applied still got resident.” “The website system had glitch and gave wrong info.” I was upset. That room is the best choice not because of its window facing girl’s dorm, but because of its quietness. I then said ”hey yo I know it’s currently occupied.” “But let me talk to him and perhaps we can figure out a solution. Could you please give me the contact of that occupancy?” The counter person looked not happy. Nevertheless he wrote down his number and handed me along with payment form. “Remember to make payment before this Friday otherwise your eligibility is automatically invalid. ” “You can pay with credit card, cheque or currency”, he remaindered with impatient look. “Currency?” I was confused. “Yes, currency. Paper bill, cash, you don’t even know this term? Your English sucks.” He obviously got annoyed. Seems that today is not a really smooth day at all. But it’s still all good. The news already made my day. I left the counter after I politely replied: “Thank you, registry.” --
