hay!

so as i was contemplating whether i should have included my biometric appointment booking confirmation notice with my application (it's not stamped but it shows i did have a booking appointment), somebody from the immigration tried to contact me but i wasn't able to answer my phone so she just left a message. she said she'll try to call me again later in the day. she might have been busy so she wasn't able to call me back. fair enough. i figured it's my day off today anyway so i'll just give them a call. tough luck for me, i couldn't understand her name so when the receptionist took my call, he couldn't help me coz i didn't know the name of the person who called me. i mean, come on, how could i expect him to help me, what with their 200 something number of staff. surely i was asking for too much. in fairness to him, he offered to take my name and contact number to pass it on to staff in case somebody knows something or somebody or whatever.

so the wait continues.

i decided screw it. i'm not letting one phone call ruin my day off. i'm just gonna carry on with my day, do whatever i want, go wherever i want and just take everything as it comes.

so i went out, posted gifts and things, went to the supermarket and now home again. the good thing is, i was actually really planning to stay home and do some of my craft projects so now that my 'out-of-the-house' obligations are done, i can just sit back and wait for the call while still carrying on with my plans. sweet.

i'll try calling them later today again. not the reception number but the 0900 number. it's gonna cost me $3.25 per minute but it is indeed the visa information number and maybe i should have called that the first time. either way, they might be able to help me there than the first number i called.
