the week that wasnt

Last sunday it seemed the week was going to be the most uneventful one of the semester. 2 teachers out of station, friday being declared another holiday and nothing much to do before 2nd sessionals, it seemed the week would be a similar one where slumber rules the roost, when there are days u just laze around at home rather than going to college because there's nothing much to do there, too.

To my misfortune, these werent those days. I just got the shock of my life called as 31st march.
why ? its closing time, so all accounts need to be maintained. why me? by mistake i was involved in pecfest finance work and accountability of 5 peti worth money was to be submitted. the whole week was consumed with this stupid work while the chandigarh weather kept arousing the desires to be out exploring nature. with cloud cover, cool winds and drizzles, it seemed a perfect place for dating at lake. wasnt to be.... or was it?

and yes, drizzles bring in wet roads and wet roads bring accidents. so that too was on the cards since long... and the friday thingy ?? no holidays there. in fact, more labour for us because it was techfest time and we had to organise 2 events, so thursday, friday and saturday got fully drowned in bullshit techfest stuff.

However, this techfest was my first experience of our college's techfest (never participated in 1st, 2nd or 3rd year, as i loved using the holiday). am pretty happy about the whole thing. though at a pretty small scale, the techfest was funn. ya .. compared with pecfest where so many things lead to doing nothing, techfest offers lesser (both in quality and quantity) but all the while, more fun. its more participative, where u know everyone. people are happy rather than sad or busy. they take interest in small details. All the while, u flaunt your knowledge and ridicule the organisers because of lack of planning. its really comic, rather than big teams coming up in pecfest and crowd craving for professional performances. its more cool to see people know less and the simplest design is still the best. particularly, my happiness was more by seeing the submarine design competition where decent gathering still came (which i dint expect).
however, the 31st thing has completely gripped my life. now techfest bills need to be submitted before 31st. thankfully, i am not the finance head this time.
