I took bath , breakfast and got to iron my dress, when i got a serious Shock! No not an electric one but More than that! As i plugged on the iron, the electricity went off. I thought its a regular loadshedding for An hour. May be the time got changed today. I waited for an hour.
Slowly and gradually the time passed and passed and there was no light till 11. That time i seriously got worried. I complained in KESC office two times, and at the third time i got to know that due to some technical problem, the light would be available at 4. that was a big ever shock for me. Many horror assumptions started covering my mind. What about my dance performance? What would my group friends say if i couldn't reach there? God, please help me out. And for sometime i got totally blank.
But when no one is there, your mother is there. Offcourse, Mother is always the medicine of any pain. Same as my mom. She gave me an idea to go at my aunt's place living in Gulberg to iron my dress and continue to go at the event.But i didn't listen her and went at another aunt who lives in Shadmaan.
I quickly went off along with my dad and all my jewelley and make up stuff to my aunt's home. What i saw there, that there was no electricity too. Huh! On that moment i realized why i didn't listen to my mom and argued with her. Last effort was left which i did. I tied up the iron wire and put it on the slowly burning stove and pressed the dress.
It was 12 now. I quickly put on my suit and did make over myself and went off to the venue. It was 12:30 when i reached there. And according to the given time, the gate had to be locked at 12 noon sharp. Our organizer and our CR, Qirat, made me enter the lawn. I rushed in and immediately went in the dressing room where i took a deep breath.
The program had started. I joined the program with my class mates. According to the planned sequence, in the 1st part of the program there were 1st year's performances, then 2nd year, then we, 3rd year had to perform. All the performances of 1st and 2nd year were very good. We enjoyed all the dramas and dances. The performances of 1st and 2nd year were last at 3.
At 3, lunch was served. There was too much rush at the lunch time. There were 3 dishes. But unfortunately,I could only taste singapuri rice.
After lunch, around at 4, finally, it’s our turn to rock the stage. Our beautiful hosts, Zahra Jabeen and Madiha Wahid, gave a smart trailer of beginning. And we burnt the stage. All the dramas, dance and mimickries were awesome. We showed our each talent there which was most appreciating and mature. An awards ceremony was also included in our skits in which we gave awards to our teachers by mimicking them on some of their habitual acts.
At last, it’s the time came when our hosts announced about our dance performance. My hands got so cold in nervousness, but I recite durud shareef and put my first step along with my group dancers on the stage. Just after 2 minutes 50 seconds, I got my senses back and saw everybody clapping and shouting. Everybody was so happy. Finally I did my best on the stage. I was so glad to see every one appreciating me on my performance. I took a deep breath and thanked to Allah Almighty for helping me throughout the day.
It was 5:30 eve now. It was time to go back home. Everybody was very happy being united in “Come Connect”. Everyone was thanked to Qirat, who made a very hard effort of organizing such a blasting event.
