TWO YEARS EXPERIENCE IN KARACHI UNIVERSITY


                   

      University of Karachi is the mini city in itself. Being a university student was something that I had always craved for, just like the other students. I feel myself blessed that I got admission in the renowned university, where, probably every student wish to get admission in.
    
      I still remember my first day in Karachi University. My heart was pounding with tons of question in my mind regarding my career and of course regarding my university life too. I was worried thinking, if I would be able to manage my studies in university or not. Egging on myself, I entered the gate. At glance, everything seems to be so challenging.  





  And then, it was later, when I realized that I was wrong. All my stress was relieved as soon as I entered their and got to know about the university and students. Karachi University is different in many aspects like; In KU asking for a lift is very common within the premises. I mean it’s really generous that a stranger is dropping you at some distance and you have short time interactions as well. In fact, it is a routine practice in KU.

    KU Syllabus means the course outline which is the target that has to be achieved. Teacher seems mysterious. Some are solved means really kind enough with the students but other remains always mystery. The results are always beyond expectations more shocking then surprising  J .

The most interesting part of last two years experience was to hangout with friends. Usually bunking classes and spending more time at cafeteria. My object was to explore new canteens, eating at dhaabas and sitting on the floor; donkey cart rides and cheering for our department’s cricket team. In short I did everything accept study, seriously.

        

                                                                                                                                                                          






It would be insane if one is talking about KU and have not mentioned the famous P.G. It is Food Street. But one thing that bother me the most about the students is that why they are not throwing the wrappers in the dustbin? Don’t they know why dustbins are made?
                  
    I am surprised how time passes so rapidly. The last two years of my life in KU just seems like yesterday to me. My university experience has been good, so far. There is still so much to say about studying at KU but I am with short of words. I’ll never be able to forget my university life. Today, I am confident and I am sure that KU experience is meaningful and worth remembering to me, where I learned how to deal with people.
I am proud of myself that I am a part of this university, and I always will be!

  1. It is interesting that while you have issues with those not knowing what dustbins are made for, but feel great about yourself not knowing what classrooms are made for !!!
