Many thanks to the school and hall management for preserving the epitome of beauty and perfection that is Independence Hall. Many thanks to you for our bulb less rooms that radiate with stark darkness at night. Thanks for the broken ceilings that produce a downpour of carnivorous rats that land on my roommates’ chest while he snores. Thanks for your negligence towards the torn nets and window gaps that make our rooms attractive to laptop thieves and violent rain. Thank you for the leaking pipes in the bathrooms which make sure that we inhale the rosy stench of faeces just as we brush our teeth.
I deeply appreciate you over our kitchenettes, with their brain-dead hotplates, spoilt sockets and large holes that house poisonous rodents. It would be unfair not to thank you for your quick non-response to the railings that collapsed in C Block. Our inverters are as good as non-existent too, we love you for that! Our epileptic water supply is a cause of celebration. A friendly hug for the lack of sufficient lockers, which leave us with no choice but to spend extra money on employing the services of carpenters. Thanks for the health post which is as useful as the ‘p’ in pneumonia. Thank you for the cats you have given us as pets. It is so adorable when they roam our floors at night with their creepy eyes and haunting meows. We are thankful for the public address system speakers that selectively work in selective places.
The large pit on the quadrangle is very aesthetically pleasing. Let us forget that it is endangering our lives as one can fall into it at night. It is no big deal. After all, it does not hurt to have an Alice-in-Wonderland kind of adventure.
