KU Rocks!

As you can see my beloved friends, this was the time exactly my friend and i left the house to our beloved university to register. And by register, i mean, taking only a paper and leave. Simple, no? But when it comes to KU, simplicity has no definite meaning.
This is what happened that led to that stunt:

Students registration began on 17\9, and since our dear university is highly against student classification, merged us the graduates with the enrolled all in the same period. Pretty smart decision you know, to keep the fuzz and vibe going in clumsy Ramadan. Sorry, to pack us all like a can of sardines.

My friend and i were like: yeah, we should be there early, say like 8.30 am to avoid the crowd. Man we were so wrong mrgreen
The waiting line extended all the way to the street, and when we got inside they told us they ran out of numbers and that we should come back tomorrow.
A decent saint person would argue how would numbers finish? aren't they infinite?
Later on we discovered that they only gave out 40 numbers divided on 4 colleges. That's like 10 numbers for each college. 10 numbers = 10 students which equals 10 students for each college.
Did i mention that it was us the graduates and the enrolled? .......... yep i did.

We went again the following day, earlier at 7.30 am! and man the line keeps getting longer smile
And once the door opened, civilization and humanity vanished into the air. It basically became ya thabi7 ya mathbo7! Whoever said we're in the millennium is a lying hypocrite! Just because dinosaurs have extinct doesn't mean we're still not in the cave age!

To make long story short, we heard people saying that they come at dawn just to get numbers because they run out fast. And that's when we decided to get out of the house at 4.50 am. Luckily, i had my brother follow us all the way to the campus. Shakelna 9ar shubha! Banat bro7hom bel share3 5 alfayir sheno 3enduhom!!
But when you get out at such time and reach the university at 5.30 am you expect to be the first one to arrive! Hell, have the first numbers!
But this was what i ended up with, thankfully razz

25 is way better than 70, and yep you guessed it right. They increased the numbers to 70. Way to go KU, what a marvelous accomplishment. Finite numbers AND hand written. I really have to be proud exclaim
And just for the record, there weren't any screens displaying numbers. Security guards were shouting them mrgreen
And just for the record 2, all this hassle was for an application that could have been claimed at the graduates department.

I really, really ...... really can't go on with this other wise I'd burst of anger and irony.
So I'd like to say Kel 3am Wento B Khair Wa 3eedkom Mubarak. This is your 3eedeya, fresh and smelly from the Central Bank. Enjoy wink

There IS an online registration. But that day was for students who couldn't register online due to problems with class timings and stuff like that.
You know, the lack of organization as usual!
