You get the point?

By Shumaila Rais

"Sunooo...yar mere liye seat rakhna please"


This is the mostly used sentence by me and most of KUrians using KU points for transport; I am kinda use to of this sentence during the way from home to university and university to home in my point. Everybody seems in a hurry to get a seat in the point. Traveling in KU points is a very adventurous, humorous and courageous part of university life.
Everyone starts texting others to confirm its timing or whether it is coming or not. Mostly students use KU points because it is really cheaper and somehow easiest way to reach home but on the same time it is thrilling experience.

The points are fully over loaded by KUrians so that not even a single student can take a single step. Many students are take risk and agree to stand on the last step of point that causes many serious accidents.

Students are not even properly settled at their places and then suddenly conductor comes and asks about the fare or ticket of point. And the very most interesting place in points is the back benches area, where the standing boys are full enthusiastic and wants to fall down on their desire beautiful girl. I want to mention these boys, actually they are gillgiti Pathan. Some boys start singing stupid and unmelodious songs by their intolerable voice and make the journey a big head ache for others.

I see many of girls fighting with each other to get their seats or a proper and desirable place (nearest to window) to stand at least. While some bad boys never pay their fare of point.

Traveling in points in risky, dangerous and annoying too but in the same time it is part of university life and every Kurian should try atleast once in his/her university life, But in a safe manner.
