Admin City
Recently, a friend of mine had been going through a rough patch regarding his romantic relations with a certain someone. Frustrated and fed up with the problems he was experiencing he called himself “Captain Admin.” For those who don’t know, the term “admin” is used whenever life’s natural calm ebb and flow is disturbed by some form of problem whether it is academic or otherwise. This is called admin and everyone has some sort of admin in their lives. In my friend’s case, the title of captain was apt. He’s the type of guy who means well but inevitably gets mixed up in a problem when his intentions go awry. Fortunately for him, he has a friend like me to be his secretary and sort out his admin. In terms of my life, the only real admin I could find was doing this blog. It is a fun, new experience but on top of the rest of my academic work, I haven’t reached my predicted number of posts. Looking at my planner, my eyes and nerves are bombarded by essays, due dates and exam revision. I have to put my headphones in and breathe. I seem to have arrived in Admin City.
