YOUTH ACTIVISM DAY.




After all that work till 3 last night- it was so so impossible not to snooze the alarm 8 times, from 7 a.m. to 8.20 a.m.
managing to reach college somehow, missed the bus obviously.
after attending two lecs, we head to register ourselves- 11th hour people as always. get print-outs of our posters n get working.
our cause- STOP CHILD ABUSE. we have 4 posters n one badge pic. badges worked really well. people put them on willingly and many came to us asking for it. we even forced some people, celebs in college to wear them.but then some were also ready to buy it from us ( gave us a good idea for next yeras campaign)! ok all in all- our badge was a hit!! almost evryone could be seen wearing one by the end of three hours of our working around. i make up some powerpoint presentaion, throwing in random facts chosen on some instinctive yet lowly intellectual level. we began with just me n Anna. Udrrek joined in. Sakina, Aj, Agnav also joined in. Presentaion was ok(dunno whether its an understatement or overstatement)- judges n Dr. B grilled us- got kinda screwed. but its ok. atleast we tried.
it was a bustling active day today. i was glad to see so many people taking up a cause, supporting it, or the fact that they atleast bothered. Trying is better than sitting on the sidelines and commenting, i swear.

due to all this hustle n bustle we missed teh movie screening for Hotel Rwanda. But then we went for the movie screening of Water(giving our english presentation a slip one more time). its ok. Me n Anna, like inane, insensitive souls were foolin around making jokes. it was real sad in the ending. the movie promoted our cause, in a way it did. :P.


from now on..


god give me some more brains and heart,

to not crib about very small suffering my way,

for there are a million others somehwere,

who suffer much more, a lot more than we can imagine.


ok that doesnt mean i'm shutting down this blog( much to the displeasure of NERs).

i shall keep whining, so that one day i realise that all this whining had lent perspective to my views, propelling me to try n improve the condition in which i currently am into a non-whining, peace-loving, contented one.( wht crap?) a very difficult mission indeed.
