My cousin got admission in Superior University of Lahore, basically we belong to Multan, we just travelled from home to Lahore to finding the accommodation. It was first experience between us to find the accommodation, my cousin was very excited because he is going to explore new place. I am little bit anxious about new place and environment however, I had good experience of Lahore and others area because I have completed study from Gujranwala therefore I can speak punjabi language with fluently. It was positive impact on my personality. Because I can deal easily with punjabi community. On the other side, my cousin cannot do because he was a student of Undergraduate, and he had no experience about Lahori community as well. We reached at Lahore early morning 5:40 am, weather was cool due to end of February month. After that, I think that should be relax and think further plan. I spend 30 minutes at Bus terminal. Then we have travelled to University which was distance on 20 Km respectively. On the other hand, we were travelling through careem, it was valuable and convenient source to travel in the Lahore. Also, we had some luggage which belong to my cousin. We reached within 30 minutes at front of the University gate, and I tried to find some advertisement regarding to hostels. I found some ads and strive to contact those numbers which then mention it. Some response were optimistic and few of pessimistic. In addition, we proceed to check the rooms and environment that how many students are living in one room and which facilities are providing to students. Unfortunately, rooms were not good as my expectation but I didn't lose hope and continue struggle to find the room. We also have checked the hostel of University, it was pretty nice and environment was neat and clean also offered the Mess opportunity to all students. I like that environment. We felt pleasure and decided to get room is here. I contacted to official person who belong to the hostel management. He informed us about hostel rules and regulations. We asked few questions about security. We were completely agree to get it room suddenly official person mentioned that you have to deposit huge amount first according to University policy. This statement was losing our hope and heart. We requested to responsible person that we belong to another city please give us some relaxation. Because we need some installments of required amount. Regrettably, he denied to hear our request. Any way, we tried to approach upper authority, and upper authority also mention same argue with excuse. I observed that they will not do anything in the respect of oblige. In the end, University timing was going to off. I tried to contact some friends and use some connections to find the accommodation, luckily one of connection provide us hope, he said your cousin stay at our home for few days, when he will find the room near the University he can move. Then I thanked to Allah that my cousin is now in safe hand. I booked the bus ticket in order that could be travel to back home. We enjoyed meal and after few hour. I left the my cousin, I advise to him please be strong and be a brave man forever. Because it is unknown place and you have to care yourself also I mentioned that don't lose hope, think positive and do positive. It is key of success.
