Five years ago, in my O Levels, a project was handed to our team entitled, Ways to conserve the environment.

Our team had three members, including me, Saad Ahmed and Hamza Zafar as our captain. What had troubled us was that Hamza had, without thinking, said that, We will do it. The whole class knew that he would never do anything on time as he used to spend almost all his time watching videos and playing games. It was apparent that I and Saad did most of the work. Quickly, the fated day came by when we needed to present ourselves on our project. We wanted to meet and rehearse at least one time before the final act. It was Hamzas idea, so why isnt he here yet? we thought. Five minutes, prior to our presentation, Saad received a text message that Hamza was stuck in traffic, so he cant arrive on time. Bewildered, he said to me, the procrastinator cant arrive on time. In the end, we did our presentation without the captain. I have never forgotten those words because they were so peculiar to me. The irony of his statement astounds me even today.
