The 'Days' are here
As part of our annual gathering celebrations, we have a few special 'days' in college to break the monotony of the lecture-practical cycle.
Yesterday was 'Tie and Sari' day. Its when all the boys masquerade as men and, as if by magic, the chicks turn into women.
Someone rightly pointed out that '...this is one day when all the not-so-good looking girls suddenly look attractive and the attractive girls look gorgeous!'
Abhinav and Me at the Canteen
We all came to college wearing our best attire and as you can guess, studies were the last thing on our minds.
I do tip my hat the girls though. I can only imagine what an undertaking it must be to drape yourself with over 4 metres of cloth and then walk around daintily in the heat.
As it turns out this day isnt very well appreciated by the faculty coz its hard enough to control a mob of restless 21 year olds on a normal day.... it becomes a mammoth task to do so when they are in a party mood!
So we hung around the canteen and clicked photos all day long till my cheeks began hurting from all the smiling. Got to pose with all the beauties; cant wait for those pics to develop ;)
I got myself a phunky black tie with 'The Simpsons' family printed on it. Its probably the last time im ever gonna get to wear such a tie. In the software industry ill be expected to wear 'uncle' ties so my Simpsons and Mickey Mouse ties are gonna get passed onto my cousins. My family thrives on hand-me-downs!
Now the next day I'm looking forward to is the 'Wear Your Own Attire' Day. Finally we get to wear ANYTHING we want to college.....officially ;)

Ishita- I really DONNO HOW AND WHY DO females go around with such clothin. Life's so much simpler with Tee and jeans, more so with Tee and Shorts

It's good to see so many new Goons in the blogs.

@face!: u said it!
@Face & ishita: I agree.. life would be much easier in just tees and shorts but think about it.... arent you glad we live in a country where women dont have to wear burkhas in public?
We really gotta be thankful for things like this which we have come to take for granted..
nothing like the sari. it is the most elegant garment invented.
these theme days in college sure r fun. kinda miss the fun times in fergusson- girls all decked up and trying their best not to trip, and guys grinning sheepishly : ). breaks the monotony.
