IIMC-XL meet day 1
The Prezi's message: "Its that time of the year again when emotions will run high in every IIMCian. When your belly will be on fire to beat the XLers square".
Well, finally the much awaited day arrived. We, the juniors, came to know from our seniors that this is one another time (other being WW) when people have max enjoyment. The rivalry, the fights, the booing, the hooting, the sledging...all these that are "not expected" from a Manager all are seen in action.
Hey where is your decency. What about giving respect to others?
Cut the crap dude. The only thing we know of is winning. And we do that in style. Never mind a few setbacks we have suffered. Sometimes a tiger needs to go hungry for a day to realise what hunger means and it helps to come back with much better tactics and a sharp mind.
Coming back to the XL welcome, BB and IP became active in the last 2 days with people coming out with plans and strategies as to making the next 3-4 days one of the best times of our lives. We were told of the famed female species of XL. Sometimes, I feel that every institute should have a policy of equal rights (read seats) to men and women. Well, the wait was getting more and more difficult to tolerate. We were just waiting for the XLites to land in the jokaland.
IP became hyperactive with the info about the arrival of XLites pouring in. IP was something like CNN with continuous updates and slogans. Junta gathered in quite good numbers at the OH entrance to give a taste of the Jokaites' decibels to the poor souls coming in thinking they would rock the show. The tired and ragged XLites arrived and I suppose as has been the tradition came walking from the insti gate towards OH. The frightened but united herd of deers came in with puffed chests and started straining their vocal chords at the turn of Tata Hall. The tigers just kept patience with their eyes fixated on the pack. Poor souls managed to strain their throats and kept shouting. We were standing face to face with them. Thats when the tigers roared. And believe me, the voice could have been heard till NH. We had only heard but now were seeing THE thing. The enthu, the adrenaline, the shouts....It was simply amazing! Now I realise why this event is one of the most memorable one in the life of a Jokaite!
The author later asked an XLite: "So how was the welcome?"
XLite: "Huh. Do I need to say anything? We were simply outnumbered! Was the whole campus out here?"
The author: "Luckily for u, it was not. There was probably some 60% turnout".
(My numbers is just an estimate. So dont go on this. Anyways, this reflects why I screwed up big time in Stats!!)
Well, the fun has just begun. Miles to go before we sleep.
