Waiting? Oh no, not again!!

I had never waited for anyone so much as I had to wait yesterday for one person. It was not even worth the wait. I was made to starve, for half an hour of his time. Oh well!!

Well, it was like this. In my new college, yesterday was the day when hall tickets were distributed to students for their finals. And this governor of a north Indian state was supposed to address the students' gathering. We were told it would be a 20 minutes funciton. And well, we ended up waiting for 3 full hours. Such a waste of time. Of students' and ours. That too it was during the lunch hour. I would have fainted if it went on for 10 more mins, I promise. Oh well, such is the audacity of people in power. Though the governor, 'his excellency', spoke well, no one was in a mood to listen to him. Everyone's eyes was on the clock.
Guess, this is the norm everywhere.

Oh well!!
