Goging to GIKI, meeting peers, friends, teachers

Posted by hatim Fri, 30 Nov 2007 14:38:00 GMT

This Wednesday I took off from my office and  I went to GIKI after a gap of one year. That place is still the same but atleast I am not there any more :). I travelled via the Peshawer motorway for the first time. It took me and my (Dad's) driver unexpectedly longer to reach GIKI (about 2:15 hours) so I guess the older route is much shorther. I went straight to the Accounts office to get some of the money  ,which GIKI owed me (aroud 7000Rs), back. Unfortunately for me this task is still incomplete as there still need to be few signatures on the file. I later gave that file to Harry ( a batch 12 buddy of mine who is a TA in Math department).

Later I had the chance to meet few of my teachers, I went to see my Dean who was pleased to know that I am working hard (or atleast pretending to be :). One of other highlights of my trip was that I finally got my degree. I some how decided to not go on my convocation (on which my parents were disappointed, but at that time I just didn't want to go). So there was a small moment where I felt like a graduate (I have yet to ever wear a gown and throw a cap, I hope I will be able to do this one day from some other place).

I also met a kid cousin of mine who happens to be in GIKI freshman year. I didn't get the time to go to Hostels. Later I and my driver went to Abbottabad through scary route of Sri Kot at night. Thankfully we reached my family home safely and in time. (This is another thing taht I got some minor scolding from my mom when she came to know that I came vai the mountains)
