 When I submitted my application, with all the necessary requirements, attachments and application terminologies reminiscent of imperialism, I was asked to come back in two days along with an envelope bearing the necessary postage stamps for the country of my intended university. I again did not understand why it would take 2 days for the university to find my records. The register refused to seal and stamp the seams of the envelope and it took me a lot of pleading to convince him to do so.  I wanted the registrar of the foreign university to think that the envelope was sent to him directly by the registrar of local university without any intervention from my side. I wanted to be proud of my university even though I had no reason to do so.
