AAYAM

I am about to retire after a very tiring day at the college. Tiring, not because I was studying really hard but tiring because we did a lot of other stuff. I traveled from my home to college (30 km), from college to cinema hall for the movies which we could not watch because the tickets were not availaible (10 km), from cinema hall back to college (10 km), from college to Ansal Plaza & then back home (about 50 km). Hufff.... now isnt that tiring??
A couple of my collegemates decided, a few days back, to start a Dramatics society in our college. After much struggle and hardwork it finally happened. Today were the first ever auditions of "AAYAM", the official dramatics society of our college. So apart from wandering around the streets of delhi, I also appeared for its auditions today. It was a fun experience and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The audition consisted of two performances, a monologue and a group performance. We were given topics on the spot for both and had to prepare performances for the same within a few minutes.The topic I got for my monologue was "Corrupt Officer, Subtle Bribery", and for group performance "Lok Sabha". My monologue performance kind of sucked. I could convey what I was trying to. But I completely rocked in my group performance. We were four people and I played Navjot Singh Sidhu and the other three characters were Lalu Prasad Yadav, Atal Vihari Vaajpayee and speaker of Lok Sabha. Our performance was really appreciated by the judges and I could tell from there expression that I kind of stole the show.
I have always had my interests in dramatics and AAYAM would be the perfect platform to deal with them. And after a good audition I am hoping to be a part of AAYAM. The results will be out tomorrow and I am just keeping my fingers crossed.
