FUN Details

Well, well, well…. Last week it was all about assignments filled with clerical stuff (one of the few things I am really bad at). This week has some really good assignments…. (i) the Ad for Ad-MAD in Communication class and (ii) Market research report presentation. Luckily, I submitted all the assignments of last week on time .. pHEW!!this week it was about academically emotional upheavals.

Now let’s look at the fun angle of IBA as I had mentioned earlier. The main highlight was the Freshers’ Nite, now rechristened as “ASTRAL”. Then, we will analyze the proceedings of ONAM and Teachers’s Day.

1) ASTRAL: The buildup to ASTRAL by the seniors was pretty good. They had already stamped, trampled and blasted the “ATTITUDE” issue in most of us…(some exceptions do exist). The pressure on rule-following and attire was put to perfection. They had made everybody really hungry for the freshers’ nite to come. And then, the DAY HAD COME…

If ,for boys, it was like the end of hell…. For girls, it was like gate of heaven. But, they also made the day ,for boys, like one in Heaven. Girls were following the Insect Life Cycle, they were in the cocoon for 1-2 months, now the beautiful butterflies were out. The process of going to party starting the earlier Friday itself. Boys and girls went out to get what they call PARTYWEAR.

The resort was awesome….. and the party really rocked. We danced for 5-6 hours non-stop. The DJ was cool. I loved it… all thanx to our really gr8 seniors!

2) Teacher’s Day and ONAM: After the hectic night of ASTRAL, we were given a recovery day. But for some of us, it was the day when we practiced hard. The TEACHERS’ DAY celebrations were next day. Also due to the nerve-tingling exams of earlier week, the ONAM got postponed and got clubbed with teachers’ day celebs. But all the efforts paid off.

The celebrations of Teachers’ day went great even when all the students were cramped in the Auditorium due to rain. Teachers were very encouraging and also sporty as the skit performed was all out indirect parody on them which they loved and laughed with us. The dance performances were very good and even CEO sir and Dean shook a leg with the Bhangra group. I had a great time too with my dance and music management.

Yet, the event of the day ended up being TUG-OF-WAR. The competition was fierce. The crowd was chanting and shouting for their sections. Even the rain could not dampen the enthusiasm of the colleagues. The best match was the SENIOR V/s JUNIORS. Juniors won the match and the celebrations were jubilant.

More posts will come later… sorry for the delay PGs. Next will be a detailed survey about the Faculties at IBA and PLACES TO VISIT IN IBA.
