Stuck in this stupid cyber cafe!

Really am missing the hostel. One doesn't know what one holds until it is lost! Then we realize how much we miss it. Now i can't surf the net whenever i want as there is no internet connection and even though i want to subscribe i can't cos I'm using the laptop secretly. Our landlady forbid us from using it. Anyways nothing to write, was just missing the hostel so i thought i publish it in my blog.

Leaving the hostel today!


Though i had always complained about my stay in a hostel i can't really deny the truth that i'll be missing it. Have got 2 precious hours remaining to stay in my room so i thought i'll write something in my blog about the hostel.

Tried to take gate pass from the housekeeper so i went to her place and i was greeted by an old grouchy man who turned out to be her husband (wonder how she landed up with him because i really like the housekeeper who's really sweet. He should have been the husband of my previous warden who, in my 3 years of stay under her supervision, never smiled. I'm pretty sure they would have got along like fire. Wonder who'll tame who!)
The first thing he did when i inquired about her, he folded his hands (yes i wondering why too) and started bellowing about how i was the third person to have come to him and that she's not here. Now how in the world would i have known that she wasn't there and that i was the third person to have irritated him. He might as well have thrown a brick at me. If he was really bothered then he should have some sense to write "Housekeeper not here" and paste it on the door. Would have saved so many people's problems-his mainly!
I was there, open mouth. Am not one to just stand by and listen to his crab and so i even replied that i wasn't even aware. While he was shouting away i just shouted "thank you" many times and went away.

Am really funny because i started writing about how i'll be missing the hostel and started bitching about the grumpy old man who's inside the campus of our hostel. I just had to write it because.......... well i had to. So as i was saying, i'll take with me some of the good as well as bad memories. Served as a vice-president (for the shortest duration as possible) and then i left because i couldn't carry out the duties which i felt were very burdensome and least interesting. But that short duration has taught me a lot too.

My Balcony mate and me chatted the whole night away and she helped me in packing some of my stuffs too and i guess i'll remember her for helping me fold the blankets and stuffing it inside its bag which for the life of me can't still manage to do it. She said that she'll miss me especially when my lights will be off now because i always keep my lights on and it seems knowing that my lights were on made her happy-go figure. lol

Anyways i gotta go after sometime now. I still haven't packed some of my stuffs yet. It feels as though my packing will never end. Have already had 4 trips and it'll be my fifth trip now but i won't be returning this time.

Almost all my friends have gone out of the hostel so basically there's no one to see me off except one of my friend who's coming over to help me out despite me saying that she needn't do so. I'm leaving at 5:30pm. Wish that the weather would be kind enough to not tan me. Bye UHW and welcome to my new home in ...........(secret)
