Late notices. Short notices. Changeable notices.

It is the middle of week 16, and my exam dates are still not finalized. We know the exam dates for our core modules should be on week 19 and 20, but the schedule isn’t up yet. In fact, the exam dates that were actually set for week 17, 18, and 19 are beginning to change because of the New Year’s Day holiday. Apparently it has been declared that it is a holiday from 1-3 January, Monday to Wednesday. (I’m not sure whether it’s a public holiday). Therefore, to compensate the loss of valuable time from school, classes for the 2nd will be held on Saturday, 30 December, and the 3rd on Sunday, 31 December (the same routine they use for Labour Day and National Day public holidays). So the exam timetable is still not fixed, making us get our exam schedule on very short notice, and even after jotting the dates down, we gotta reach for that correction fluid almost immediately.
