Yes! We did It!!

THE FREAKY WILD CROWD @ 11 pm


"It’s a total dud.This yr's juke-box sucks.”.This is what was going thru my mind till the evening of the first day of Utkarsh-’07 but soon I was to be proved wrong when by evening the entire court was jam packed with the crowd dancing madly to the blaring music.
This year’s juke-box was something that we as well as our juniors will remember in the years to come. Without a second thought, I can say our juke-box was even better than KGP’s .All our creative endeaveours & endless meetings bloomed fully during these three days.We put so much effort in making those posters of G-stall with the smiling big photo of Gandhi visible around the college..Guys,Gandhi indeed got his 30 secs(oops! 3 days) of long-deserved fame.(pun intended!)
Frankly speaking, when we( Da Juke-box gang-Rathz,Raj,Dion & of course, me) were working on introducing competitions like Sudoku, N-snake, Chirkutting, Blind Date etc. I was pretty skeptical about the response our these new ideas will get from the crowd especially about the success of the ‘Blind Date’ thing . I wasn’t expecting that any gal would be interested in it-only to be proved wrong again.

DA JUKE-BOX GANG (Camera: Flash : oops! my eyes closed !!)

With the start of 2nd day, all those rats started coming out of their rat-holes. I, who himself hasn’t solved a single sudoku till date,was surprised to see people jostling for participation in Sudoku. N-snake also received pretty gud response from all those poor souls who would ‘ve drawn flak from others for wasting their time playing Snake on their Nokias & ya! the thing I was most skeptical about –Blind Date proved to the biggest hit. In the morning, the registrations were just mild but huh ho!! to our utter amazement all the chicks walked in & wat say, after dat the registrations zoomed across the sky crossing the 150 . Overjoyed with the crowd response ,we came up with a Fear-Factor like idea at 10 in the nite but now we were sure that it’s gonna be a huge hit nxt day & we were not wrong !!
& all this wouldn’t have being possible without our planning & also the cooperation of our jrs - Sameer(for DJing),Nandy(for sacrificing his lappy), ,Masca(for slogging hs ass in registrations) ,Golu(for the Fear Factor idea & of course, his bike) & Shankar(for keeping the crowd engaged ). Now that Utkarsh is over ,All I can say is that we were determined to make this Utkarsh a big hit & we did it!! Now we’ve set a benchmark ,I hope our junior batchs take this mark even higher & make the nxt yr’s Utkarsh even a bigger hit.
For those of u who’ve weren’t here try this tongue twister which was the one among many I gave to the crowd but which even a single person couldn’t get perfectly rite(even I’d to practice it countless times to get it perfectly rite):
“Betty bought a bit of butter,but the bit of butter was a bit butter so she bought a bit of better butter to make the bit of bitter butter a bit better”
Cheers!!
