There are certain situations
in which one feels happy and sad at the same time, thereby not being sure of
what to do. Recently, I faced such an occasion, wherein I had to be excited and
worried simultaneously. After completing my bachelor’s degree course, I applied
for masters at a popular university outside my country. As my marks were good,
I not only expected to get through admission, I was pretty sure that my
scholarship would cover the fees for my course, thereby reducing the economic
pressure on my parents. However, when the result came, things turned out to be
slightly different to what I had imagined. Although I got admission, my
scholarship was cut short due to some reasons, which meant that I had to find
my own student house in Sheffield as
the hostel was full. I was really happy that I was going to my dream college
but was worried about my accommodation.
I decided to find a solution
on my own by contacting a few people and researching on the web. Little came
out of people I went to as they had no substantial contribution to make to help
my cause. While browsing through the web, I came across this family run agency
that was involved in the business of providing accommodation near my university.
I sent them an email to ask for details of the kind of houses they provide
along with the rate list. To my surprise, the agency came up with a fantastic
solution within no time, helping me to find a house. What was interesting was
the fact that there were a few people from my community who had taken admission
and were looking for a house as well. After several discussions all of us
decided to take a three bedroom apartment, which would be more sensible and
economical. And here I am today, happy and on my way to institute I have always
wanted to be in.
