Transparency in HALL-Payments should be made clear!!!!

Yo dude. Three days to be exact till the end of my internship!
Still hate my XXX though, last wk supposed to enjoy somore give me more work. She's gonna miss me coz no one goin her dirty old work. I still got loads more to do tmr. Shall do it like a tortoise.

Anywayz, I'm here to rant...Yea i know AGAIN...shall call this a rant/complaint/whatever blog

So this is the story. Saw Raymond's MSN that says temasek website is up. So being the curious me, checked it out. Went through the committee link, looked at tech crew, then rag, then DND
Found out that the theme this yr is Heroes. Checked out when was the bash(Although I'm not a bash goer). It was on the first wednesday of school. Hm in zouk somore. Then i read on..."Tickets are available $12 for girls and $16 for guys" Well obviously coz Wednesday's ladies night.
So then something came into me...I was so FREAKING PISSEd(AS USUAL :P)
WHY, u asked?

Well coz the orientation pack since yr one includes a bash ticket. Not to say like i LURVVVVVVVE bashes or what BUT HECK I PAY FOR IT DUDE. So, the OC member even have the guts to tell me "OC welcome pack price also din increase what"
My business instincts tell me that, distribution of bash tickets by first wk is technically impossible. Moreover they even put the price on it, so i guess that it's not included? I may be wrong. And if so, i shall recall this post then.
BUt until then, I am not satisfied. What if the $70 does not even include a bash ticket, worth around $14?I guess DND wouldnt be so $%^&@ not to make it compulsory by collecting the bash funds. Or probably they want us to pay more!!!

So what is inside the $70 welcome pack. Piece of crap( Although i must say this yrs goodies are good)
But what the heck..THE GOODIES ARE STILL FREEBIES sponsored by companies. I dun expect them to be charging for teeny weeny samples rite???
Content inside the goodie pack: Biscuits, Cosmetics...
The ex stuff are the orientation T(I dun mind that, it changes every yr), POLO T(3rd one and counting. I'm so not goin to receive my fourth one), URGH LOUSy TOWEL THAT DOESNT even absobr water...
TTS ALL!!!!
And heck i havent even started complaining about the hall meals. $40/ week for ALl MEALS EXCEPT SAT BREAKFAST AND LUNCH...WTF?????
Lets do the math. I'm charged $21/wk for six bkfasts and dinners. Which is also ex by stds.Coz i dun nid to spend $1.1 for bkfast nor $2.4 for dinner.
So there are six bkfast, six lunches and seven dinners in total
So the six bkfast&six dinners=$21...CORRECTY?
One dinner is equivalent to $2.4
So take the balance which is $16.6 and divide it by 6 (Coz six lunches ma)=$2.76
WHAT $2.76 for a piece shit of lunch..WHICH IS EXPENSIVE THAN DINNER???
OR THE MEALS ARE OVER PRICED DURING ORIENTATION?
Whatever it is, I dun get the theory and the logic.
Is it fair, for the seniors to pay $200 for two wks of orientation, where its not obligatory for them to show up. But it's compulsory to pay?I know convenience for Hall office n all. But shudn't the Hall Office, and so some holiday comm involved in this thingy, think of the seniors' welfare?
HOw many ppl can afford this? A hall is still a place for ppl to stay. Not to wallop ppls money and all. AND AFTER THREE YEARS, (Erhem shud be two yrs) NOthing has been done to stop this. I'm sure MANY PPL have already made their point, complained like shit. BUT TO NO AVAIL!!!!IS THIS HOW THE HALL OFFICE AND WHOEVER can earn their money out...to cover losses or whatever in their comms or bla???
I'm sure the caterer only get their $$$ based on the number of coupons they have received. And what about those who din check in? Where does the money go???

Sensitive issues like $$$$ irritates me. Dun blame me, I'm a practical person, and money means everything to me. Sounds like a true BUsiness Student INDEED....

HOpe someone can enlighten me out of this.
I'm so not gonna stay in hall nxt yr...and i bet no one cares HAHAHA...
