Australia Visa

Nana went to Australia High Commission to apply for her student visa, and met this stupid officer.

Officer: Where is your university transcript?
Nana: Ah? I tot you don't need the transcript?!
Officer: Of course we need. If you fail all your subjects, why should we issue this visa to you?!
Nana: What@#$%! If I had failed all my subjects, why would the university in Australia offer me the opportunity for exchange? (She kept smiling, which is 笑里藏刀)
Officer: That's why we need to see your transcript!
Nana: @#$%^&*

What's the reasoning?! She really couldn't understand! Aren't you doing too much, AHC?!

For a stupid visa, Nana needs to take this stupid IELTS test, and now, to provide the university transcript! Yes, it's easy to do so, but why should a student be subjected to so many restrictions while the Australia university has placed an offer to the student?!

IT TOTALLY DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!!!

And what's wrose? It costs you:
AU$610(visa) + AU$195(compulsory health insurance) + S$300(IELTS)+ ???(Medical examination)

Before I even book the air tickets, this is the sunk costs I have incurred! US, UK visas cost about $200, while Canada visa costs S$100+. What is it with an Australia visa that is worth so much?!

Anyway, to ease off my anger, I made dumplings with my new roomie this noon, and we had a very beautiful lunch & chit-chat!
