Riviera -05

One of the most memorable weeks in my coll life....

Startin on tuesday i had no plans of goin anywhere,On tht day I asked Santhosh whether I could accompany him to VIT.Affirmative,but he said at ur own risk...which i obliged to and there i was ready to pack my bags..VIT here i come ...

We caught the bus around 3:30 PM and we were on the way.There were eight of us and we reached the destination early mornin around 4:00AM on 5th, at VIT.It was surprisin 2 c tht we were given a warm reception.The VIT hospitality was very good and did a wonderful job.We had a quick nap and were ready 4 the first event which started by 9.30.

The first event was DC .Partenered along with Balaji and Jason,we were practicin 4 some time.We were doin with english movies..Oh God I hadnt practiced 4 anythin nd i was quite sure tht i will not be able 2 bag any prizes 4 the competiton was really crazy..The relevin factor 4 us oer there was GALS...Wht a gr8 infrastructure..with sensors in all taps..u gotta juz get the hands beneath the tap and water strts gushin ....wht a campus and next comes wht kewl ......?It was a treat to the eyes amidst such an environment of cultured(can take it however..either nasty or rich) people.Most of them were from north and a few NRI's..Here I come back again 2 the event..

The preliminary round..we were the most awited first team...eh eh ehhhh...The topic was Personalities and books..I decided to do the action...and the title that i got was "The Little Nugget"...Sadly my fellos were not able to get it.

Next came the Wht's the good word? contest..This time me nd Paul teamed up.They gave a set of words to me and asked to write down the synonym,antonym and a rhymin word of them.From the synonyms my partner had to guess the word.Most of the words, i knew them but a little complex..I wrote down the synonyms but alas my partner was not able to find the correct words..
That night was the most memorable of all.The real party turned up at the night.We had bought tickets for the concert of PARIKRAMAS...rock baby rock baby rock..It was coolest night with an explosive environment..Dancin,Shoutin..wht else can u do in a rock concert we did em all..There were 4 bands..First the VIT band(pretty ok 4 coll standards),next Yelloow(cool),Winapra(hot)finally Parikrama(hot nd metal)..It was gr8 with distortion guitars doin the metallic shreikin sound...wht a night it was ...cool man.

The next day we had Jam,Once again me, Parasu were in the first round..I did pretty ok..Mostly, we both were only talkin.I thought both of us would 've got selected but only Parasu got in(luckily i got out..)..In the finals the Shastra guys,Anna guy were gr8 with the competion between em..sadly Parasu,Ananth did not make much impact.Tht afternoon was the coolest day in VIT for there was the MR.& MISS Riviera...But the audi was jam Packed and we were not allowed 2 enter the audi..But I went to the side of the audi and tried to have a gaze..But the strain was 222 much and i decided to leave..Wht a tragedy..But it dint mind me 4 there was fashion everywhere around the college..with gals in short shorts...Ethiraj,MOP,Stella Marrys......goes on....

In the mean time our college had won 1st prize in anthakshari and 3rd in quiz.In the evenin we went 2 c the shuttle match..One of our juns did play horribly and we were not able to make it to the finals.Tennis team went directly to the finals and finished runners up.Tht night we had a concert by Shankar Mahadevan..but we decided not to go...and were debatin abt the topic on debate "Censorship" for more than 2 hrs..It was a good discussion...We decided to end the day with cards...and a nap..oh god 22 early..

Yesterday 7 was the ultimate day..There was the debate finals ..Parasu,Ananth failed to snatch the golden globe..and i was on my way to the final event,Creative Writin..I knew i wasnt a expert in it but gave a worthy try..I felt my theme was gr8 but i was not able to put correct words..for i messed em up..for not gettin a proper conclusion..I started 2 put kadalai with a VIT gal but unfortunately the event started..and boomm..there it ended.finally we started to pack our bags...I am goin to miss VIT..But i soothed myself sayin tht i would be in b'lore next year.....

Then here i am back...and havin a gr8 retrospect on VIT.
