My College Fest...

Heya people…all this while I was cribbing that my college doesn’t have a fest…But now it does have…!!! But it’s a little bit bizarre that it doesn’t have a name…lolz! So my college fest is not a big one like Malhar(Xavier’s), Umang (NM) or Mood Indigo(IIT- Mumbai)…it’s a small scale fest limited to the students of the college…sob sob…: ( This was the first time my college (St. Mary’s) had organized the fest…so obviously there were some flaws. But that was okay…at least I had a fest…phew!!! So people…let me tell ya’ll about my so-called college fest…lolz…

DAY 1 - 12th November 2009

So my college fest had finally kicked started (okay I’m felling really weird to have a nameless college fest…so according to me it should be named KARMA...) On the first floor, the rangoli competition was going on in full swing (I know it’s a really stupid event to be included in the fest…lmao) Though many people didn’t participate but still the participants were quite wholehearted and giving their best shot. The girls were trying to create to their magnum opus. They really made vibrant and colourful rangolis I must admit…!

The collage making competition was being conducted in the classroom on the first floor. The topic was “Go Green”. The participants had to create their art work around the topic. All were thinking hard to come up with some innovative and appealing idea so that their art work would be the best amongst all…At the same time, slogan writing competition was being conducted in the adjacent classroom. The participants were lost in thoughts, thinking about an attractive slogan which would be unique and appealing…

The singing competition was held in the stilt area. The event began with a short speech of my college principal. My class teacher…Mrs. Shilpi Bhattacharya…was the announcer for the event. The competition began with a boy who sang an old hindi song. BORING!!! He was making some stupid howling sounds in between…I guess that was an attempt to be cool…which wasn’t at all! The audience burst out in laughter after listening to it. The Gong Gong aka Shalem was next. He sang “She will be loved” by MARRON 5. He was even strumming a guitar.I have to say this…he was best amongst all…gosh!!! And I think that song was dedicated to Bhavana…AOWAHA bhavs!!! And how can I forget Aurpita…she sang a classical song which was boring. And yeah don’t forget the facial expressions! Roflmao!

DAY 2 - 13th November 2009

I was quite nervous as it was my event that day. I had participated in spelling bee competition and Just A Minute aka JAM. Actually I was nervous only about JAM. I got a nervous breakdown and finally I quitted! I hate myself for it. Damn!

The extempore was okay. The participants made a good effort. But the topics in JAM were really stupid! There was a RJ competition too.

Next was my event. I took part in spelling bee. I brushed up my spellings on the last moment. All set to answer. I made it through the first round. Then in the second round, the participants were bombarded with words which I never heard! And to my surprise…I won! I stood first! Yay…

DAY 3 -14th November 2009

It was the last day of the fest. The final day began with group dance. There were various dance forms. Right from contemporary, hip hop, freestyle to typical bollywood. Some groups made a poor attempt. Their dance turned out to be a disaster. Some danced on famous tracks like Whine Up, Right Round, Sugar, Bebot, Boom Boom Pow etc. And yeah…the gong gong and his gang struck again! That was hilarious! Some of the groups put up quite an entertaining performance. The college fest ended with prize distribution. Yay…even I got a prize!

So people…that was my college fest. I know it was a little bit boring but still I enjoyed it. I hope it gets better next year. And I hope it has a name next year…

PS- I envy all my friends who have great college fests like Malhar, Umang, Visions and Utsav…!!!
