On the 4th of June 2009, MMMC celebrated Hostel Day. A Day for all the hostel dwellers. This year it was held at the Boy's Hostel.
Few of us were in charge of the stage and decoration. Preparation for this day started like weeks ago. So much of planning and hardwork finally paid off when the stage and the deco looked simply amazing!!
The day of Hostel Day was such a rush. I was up till 3am the previous day preparing the coloured rice for the Rangoli. Mixing....drying.....washing....cleaning...By the time I was done my hands n nails were this rainbow of colours. Cleaned up and went to bed.
Woke up at 9am and realised i have lotsa stuff to do...You see while mixing the colours I realised that I didnt buy enough rice. So now I had to go buy more rice, come back, mix some more colours, and dry them. I was planning to start the Rangoli at 3pm as the show was at 7pm. By the time I came back from town it was already 2.30 pm.
Packed everything and rushed to the stage area at around 3.15 pm. The others were already halfway decorating the stage and backdrop. Shit I was late. So got right down to it. Thank God I had Daveena and Veno to help me out. Although it took loke 3 hours to do it, I think the final outcome was simply amazing...
The night was amazing. The theme ( If you have not guessed it yet) was Bollywood night!! So everyone dressed up in their best kurtas and sarees. As the night fell and the lights and candles were lit, the ambience was simply amazing! It was a wonderful night filled with lotsa laughs and fun times with friends. With the 'Slumdog Millionaire' show By Chandan, the all-so funny 'shananagans' by Hisyam, the B. Coli street play and the melodious singing of Su Lin and MMMC's very own idol, Ismail - it was indeed a night to remember! As the night came to an end, I looked back at the stage and all...smiled and said 'What a night! What a night!' Here are some shots from that day:
