navratri

i was in a really bad mood until a week back.
i mean, the IV really spoilt us. we couldn't stop talking about it. and exams were nearing. EVERYBODY was cribbing. it spread a blanket of gloom all over college. (yaarum madhikale, adhu vera vishayam) . the worst part: a fine of Rs.25 if u slept in the exam hall. :| there we two papers which i finished in like... 1 hour.. and i dinno how to kill the rest of the time. i tried peeking into usha's paper, just to see if she wrote more than me. when i realised she did, i hurriedly wrote 3 extra pages of crap. hoping for attempt marks. unfortunately, they were mercilessly scored off :|

gethu answer:

"what are the different types of messages?
incoming and outgoing :D :D "

then, golu-keeping in college :D

first we thought it was a rather weird idea...
since there was no scope for escaping, we gave up and decided to do something for namesake. interest was building up and it became fun.
6 of us went to ranganathan street, scouring all the shops for the stuff. flop. so the 4 boys biked to mylapore kapali temple. the two of us , preferred to scan pondy bazaar for the smaller stuff. and we had a great time shopping and bargaining :D .. aah, girly fun :D

and then, no word. we thought we dropped the idea.

i went home to catch up with family :)

i came back. went to college. i went to MS auditorium. very very nice job done by the boys n girls :) half didn't expect it :)

then the extra fittings were set up.... many nice models done by the first years. they were grand, take my word.
we peeped inside the auditorium. the stage said "navarathri, golu and dandia celebrations"
WAT? DANDIA? :)

7 ft statues of the paavais with lamps. 7ft durga , srichakram models, tirupati perumal.
college was GRAND.
lovely pookalams, rangolis painted the floor. and very very very innovative ideas took shape successfully.

the first years were a great great deal of help. but for them, we would've landed in deep trouble :|

it seems the evening buffet was great :| i missed it :| food arranged for special ocassions in college is always sammmma fantastic..

we had a great time, organizing stuff.. (fighting for resources, kevla-paduthing some ideas... super aama-poting few others) ..

this was something that we first showed nil interest... eventually, on THE day, in 4 hours, we did all we could and we loved the fun! i caught up with all the real nice people that i couldn't spend much time with.. after a long time :) no wonder i felt working together was fun fun fun.

a different last day of navratri :P
