Week from Hell

Hey guys...

Another week closer to going home!! God knows how much i want to get away from here, and how much i want to NOT be in college anymore... i guess that's why all this shit happened?? hey i didn't mean it literally, you know, i just wanted a holiday... and be back to school for next year...

Sigh... so basically last week was the worst week of my life... everything you can possibly imagine went wrong... well, okay to be fair only one thing went wrong, but it was pretty stressful all the same...

i was doing my taxes for this year's income in the US.... and i was wondering what to do with the income i got from working at my host dad's office... so i emailed the International Student office to ask them what i should do. The next thing i know, they send me an email about a SERIOUS VIOLATION to my visa status... so i went to see my international advisor on Tuesday, and she tells me that she's going to cancel my I-20 form (the form that says i'm here legally as a student in Lehigh) and that i'm going to have to leave the country in 15 days or i'm goign to become an illegal alien! apparently my working off campus was illegal wor.... she said i might be able to stay until the end of the semester though...

Of course, this had to happen during the week that i had three exams in a row... two days of programming on Wednesday and Thursday, English presentation on Thursday and math on friday...
The programming went pretty okay, a lot better than the first time, i hope which will bring up my average...
Then on Wednesday, my english group which was supposed to be working on the presentation with me on Thursday didn't do shit and i was left to do the presentation ALL BY MYSELF... and this other guy from my group came in and suggested a video... needless to say, the presentation didn't go very well... some pretty idiotic statements were made and as a result, only 7/10... which is a C- by Lehigh terms! aih....
In addition i had to study for math exam too... that same day... man.... i was like crying non-stop on Wednesday cos first of all i was afraid that i was going to be sent home, and then second of all i'm all stressed out about work and stuff....

so the whole immigration thing i'm still not sure about, but man, i'm sure glad this week is over! Now i have to survive working at the Arts Center tomorrow from 7am to 1am tomorrow...
