An amazing thing happened today. Well, after terrible disaster actually. During the week, the department finally pasted all our results - you know from year one. Under normal circumstances, they were supposed to paste each result after each semester, but not this department. We were just seeing our results for the whole year one, and year two for the first time.
Imagine that! And the looks on people's faces began to change as they saw theirs. I waited for the crowd to reduce before venturing near. You should imagine the look on my face when I saw what was there. I had four carry-overs!
I could not grasp it. I could not even fathom the meaning of that! I am in my third year, about to register for my courses, and I hav just realized that I have four courses to repeat. I walked back to my hall slowly.
i tried to recall where I had gone wrong - those courses were all physics borrowed courses. I wasnt dull in the subject so there had to be another explanation. Maybe my matriculation number got missing or was not registered when it was given to me, by the department. Maybe my own results were mistaken for anothers. Maybe .... maybe...by the time I got to my room (third floor), I could not come up with any other excuse.
God had to find a way out for me.
Ok. Enough of the gloom. by 4.30pm I could not sleep, I was really gloomy, and sad, and I could not think of a way out of my predicament. My roommates were curious as to why I came to the room early, and why I refused to go with them to the party they have tonight. So I decided to go for a walk - to the lagoon.
On second thoughts, I changed to my swim suit, wore my clothes on top, and continued towards the lagoon. I had started the day with a happy mind. But the day would close with my mind thoroughly tied up in bits.
