I need an interviewee..

Well well well, i went to class today and realised that almost everyone has got at least one interview for the newspiece that they are doing and i am still stranded here haha. But i cant blame anyone, i am miss last minute so i can only do work when time is really pressing down on me.

Anyway for those that don't know what i am doing...I have to write a hard news article in the newspaper style. So i will first have to get very credible contacts but i seriously don't know where to begin! Since it has to be a hard news article it has to be serious, so i decided to use the topic on whether my school will adopt the US style model of education like MelB uni.

This is where the hard part comes. i need to find the vice chancellor or someone that is fit to represent my school. I called the media center and the guy told me that the vice chancellor is a very busy man and its hard to get to him. But well, this guy that answered my call was nice, he took down my details and told me he would try his best to find someone that can answer my question, but he kept repeating that the vice chancellor was a busy person over and over again, like he was afraid i didnt understand him or something. so i guess there would be a low chance of getting him. And guess wat? i even e mailed the education minister here haha, but i dun think they will have the time to actually bother about students here man. So i can only wait now, hopefully someone will get back to me or i will have to change my story.

But at least now i know someone is helping me search for a suitable correspondent, so i feel better,and the rest, i shall leave it in God's hands = ) He will provide for me somehow and i will tell you how he has after i got my piece done haha.

Went for dinner at Singapore Chomp Chomp today with winston.Its been a while since i went there to eat, and huey was on duty today. It felt weird to have her serving me but it was fun disturbing her! i kept saying i wanted to see her manager to complain about her haha, but duh of course i didnt. She finishes only at 9 so i didnt get to go back together with her, but now that i see her work, she is really so attentive and alert, definitely a good worker.

Tomorro i have no school so yipee! can sleep in late again, love doing that. Hopefully i don't suffer from another bout of insomnia again.
