Scale your skills... Part II

It wasn't as bad as we had imagined.. We had a lot of fun indeed.. and in the process, did bag some pretty heavy stuff(I mean literally.. that one-hell-of-a-heavy trophy, was just short of leaving rashes on my thigh on the way back to the main city, in that one-hell-of-a-cramped bus).. the college was great.. Neat infrastructure, very clean campus.. Yes.. I'm talking about PSNA College of Engg. and Tech.





The first day wasn't bad.. it wasn't bad at all.. we had to write an aptitude test, which scaled right from analytical ability to English skills.. i bagged the Gold in that event among the 84 odd students that arrived there.. But strictly, being students of NIT Trichy, I think the 4 of us had an UNFAIR advantage over the others.. It was the kind of crowd (as I noticed in the ensuing Bus trip) that would make fun of each other and howl at the top of their voices than enjoy some refined humour that had some intelligent wordplay in them.. No, I'm not categorising everybody here.. there were some who would prove my above statement wrong..

After an assorted eat-me-quick-or-i'll-taste-bad kinda dinner, we left in a bus filled with teenage rebels. We slept in a rather awkward arrangement of Dining tables from a marriage hall, and blankets from the i-want-to-be-an-insomniac club.. the outsides were quite deceptive mind you..

After a night spent amid lungi-clad natives, looking like aliens from another planet(I'm saying this because we where among the few who didn't know how to wear a lungi and plus, everyone else were rehearsing and re-rehearsing something for a competition that we had gotten to know the name of only a couple of hours back!!), we woke up to find the hall almost empty. For a second i thought we had missed the bus to the college. Tired as we were, we made it in time for the bus to start.

What followed was a full day of hectic activities and competiotions... Almost throught the entire event, I was inly admiring their infrastructure.. Take a look for yourself..

Then at the end of the Day came the time of reckoning... The results of the events were announced..

and there it came out of the blue... Arwin Arni , first place in Aptitude test.. Sachin Jay Menon, first place in quiz, group presentation, Ankit Srivastava, Second place Group discussion.. and there we were thinking it was all over.. and then came the icing on the cake..

Rotaract Club of NIT Trichy are the overall champions.. Brilliant.. Just Brilliant!
