“For when the One Great Scorer comes
To write against your name,
He marks not that you won or lost
But how you played the game.” (Grantland Rice)
Every competition and game does not end up until and unless the winner is not being announced. Prizes and rewards are always given at the end of the ceremony. The Hajvery University followed the same custom to motivate the young, talented and energetic winners of the sports week. At one side the winners were being appreciated by giving prizes and rewards whereas on the other side the runners up were being encouraged for not to be disappointed.
The HU’s sports society and management held a spectacular Sports Week Prize Distribution Ceremony on Tuesday, 24th April 2012. It was an astonishing piece of coordination. A number of sports events were held during the five days Sports Gala in which a large number of club members participated with zeal and enthusiasm. The crowd was really hilarious that day. They were making loud bangs. Everywhere there was noise of whistling, and slogans. Students were also holding different play cards to motivate their respective teams. It was an absolute colorful overview of fun and excitement.
The sports event held included Counter Strike (Networking Game), Tug of War, Badminton (Single, Double, Single), Cricket, Football, Ludo, Volley Ball, Table Tennis and Chess etc. Mr. Umer Sheikh, the Director of International Linkages and General (Ret.) Muhammad Latif, The Director examination of HU, were specifically being invited as the Guests of Honor. The Chief Guests commended the organizers as well as students sports society for arranging such lively sports activities that are a requisite for promoting a healthy society. They also added that sports rejuvenates body, sharpens skills, enlivens spirits and produces agility and strength in body and mind. At the end of the ceremony they distributed shields, certificates and gold medals amongst the winners and the runners-up.
The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.
