It was a sleepless night .. among many nights I spent … Thinking .. and worrying .. where on earth is my attitude taking me ? lazy .. careless .. fearful .. AND spoiled…
Yes, That's me
Wake up .. Wake up.. it's 8 am already … Don't you have a zillion applications to fill ?We are late
Yes , That was my mom..
In a rush .. I put on a random shirt matching my skirt … I wore my Hijab as fast as I could… I grabbed my coat .. and ran to the front seat of the car
What time is it ?? it's 8:40 .. Okay .. I'm entering the world records
Where are we heading , Mum ? Oh, yea … Ministry of high Education .. one where people go to apply for scholarships .. Oh , it's gonna be smooth ,I hoped
At last .. We are there … What ? No parking spots ? Oh,Well .. Welcome to Kuwait
And now I am there .. the place most expected to be crowded … Where are all the people ? Students of 18 years old ? High school graduates .. Where are you ?
Right , The woman on the phone forgot to mention that I shouldn't drive half way through Kuwait to apply for college .. I should go to the Admission Office on campus .. And there , I went …
Empty stomach … Car heating system .. Kuwait streets … and THE SUN .. that was more than enough to decrease my blood pressure oh yeah !
So , There I was .. Nervous as hell … Dehydrated … Dizzy … And finally arrived at my destination .. The American University Of Kuwait … Hallelujah ..
It was my turn to meet the lady who introduces you to the AUK atmosphere .. She demanded my mother's presence … OK … Mum is on her way here … Everything went very smoothly .. Until my stuttering problem kicked in … Yes, I stutter when I'm running low on blood pressure
It is time to fill out the application .. Wait ….. I'm joining this university on a scholarship , I said… It was then … When I realized that scholarships admissions doesn’t start now ..
WHAT ???? I HAVE TO WAIT TILL JANUARY 6TH ??????? GOD DAMN IT
I SHOULD HAVE SPENT THIS DAY SLEEPING INSTEAD OF WANDERING POINTLESSLY AROUND KUWAIT ..
My day at the campus .. was very uneventful ...
