One good and one bad news

Posted by Umema Siddiqi on Monday, December 05, 2005 in

Good news never comes alone to me. There ought to be a bad news attached to it all the time.

So, what happened today? Shamayl and I were studying Economics in the library (yes, for the first time), when Asia and Hurricane zaReeta rushed into the library, pointed me out, and in convulsive breaths hollered, “Your name’s on the notice board under the flickering bulb” (The bulb flickers when there’s a new and very very important notice on the board). The first thought that came to my mind was, “Has the director summoned me?” She then added, “There are Ali and Osman in the list too!” I adjusted my sentence to “Has the director summoned US”. But finally Shamayl intervened, “Under WHAT heading?”. And both the ladies declared unanimously, “Scholarship!”

“A WHAT?”, I hardly stopped myself from screaming. They repeated that mind-numbing word. “Must be crap”, I said irritably, though I knew they wouldn’t lie. They never do. And both of them angrily replied, “Go and check it out yourself”. There was something in their words that made me stand up and rush towards the main foyer. With a palpitating heart, I checked the notice board and BANG, there was my name under the title of, “THE FOLLOWING STUDENTS ARE REQUESTED TO COLLECT THEIR SCHOLARSHIP CHEQUES FROM THE BURSAR OFFICE”. There were 10-12 (honestly, I don’t remember the number) names in the list. I hardly managed to gulp this astonishing yet incredible news. Then I searched for Ossy and Ali to tell them about the mysterious news. Went to the Bursar office, and received the cheques with accolades from the officer. I was constantly wondering why exactly are we getting this scholarship thingy? I asked Ali and Ossy. After a few unconvincing reasons that they gave, I again asked them, “WHY?”, and Ali was like, “If you don’t want that cheque it’s ok. I have yours.”

Well, I’m still wondering the same question.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Now the bad news, or simply say The Murphy’s Law!

Murphy’s Law: Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong and at the worst possible time.

We were playing basketball - just dribbling actually - when I tried to take the ball from stupid Ali and…. Murphy’s Law. Lol. I first stumbled and finally fell on the concrete floor. Ouch! That really hurts! At that time, I didn’t feel the pain at all, so I quickly stood up to avoid those concerned, yet mocking stares. There were many people around. Some were playing cricket a few feet away from us, and others were just standing there enjoying the match. You see I never fall down when I’m alone. It has to happen in front of the whole world. Argh!

I’m feeling awful now! My left leg from the knee to the foot is hurting badly. I can hardly move it. And when I walk with a limp and often stumble, my mom bursts out laughing.

Keep praying!

Cheerio folks =)
