It has been more than a month in PGSEM and during this time:
1. A 2 day grueling induction program is completed. I called it baptism by fire J
2. The first college fest, Pehel organized by just the PGSEMers is done. Though there were a few goof ups of different magnitude (right from starting of the Drama 5 times because of faulty sound system to calling a person to receive a certificate of appreciation without the certificate), as they say, all is well that ends well.
The induction program was a really bad one, in the sense that it jolted me off my comfort zone. It started on a Friday and went on till Sunday evening. The class was divided into multiple groups and there was a cup of some sort to be won at the end of it all. In between, there were induction programs, a murder mystery to be solved, a case study in strategy to be discussed (had to prepare till 2 in the night L)and general fun events that were tied to the cup.
Irrespective of who won the cup (this does not mean that I am saying this since I did not win it J), the main aim of the induction was solved. It painted a grim picture of what was to come and it had done the initial bonding across the folks which would not have been possible otherwise.
Pehel was another story all together. Since this was the first college fest, everyone (or at least most of us) were enthusiastic about planning and working for it. I was a reluctant participant till a day before the program, but got sucked into the whirlpool of enthusiasm that the group brought to the event. My contribution to the fest was a small part in the drama event in the fest. This was an eye opener in the sense that I now realize how badly I suck in dramatics. I think I should stop commenting about the wooden acting that people in Bollywood do J
So all these are over, and to add to a good measure, the mid terms are also over. Now starts the scramble to complete the assignments and prepare for the biggie – the end terms.
