Amidst the splashing rains and the potholes of Mumbai(how
can u miss that??
), some 40-50 people with water logged jeans and wet asses:lol: (ankit was one of them
) made their way to the juhu barista near
Prithvi Theater, for the 2nd meeting of the campus 18.
We saw some old face among the fairly large crowd of new members who had no
clue whatsoever was going to happen
(I was one of them)!!
The meetup which was scheduled at 2 pm actually began at 4
(after all its IST-indian streachable time)with ankit coming up
to introduce himself and his team...i must say this guy is damn funny
and
easily gets along with the crowd...then after a session of everyone introducing
each other(did they really?? I cant even remember the names!!).We went on to
the fun part of the meet with Tanuj(man…this guy can seriously pluck some gr8
tunes!!)..With his guitar started off with a song by the band "jal"
and went on to complete his stint with californication...
(my fav!!)
The "Dumb charades" ritual came soon after that and
we at last headed to the serious stuff(which was not at all serious)..We
discussed about the website...the talent inclusion from colleges in mumbai….the
I-rock event etc..while this was happening…the hungry ppl were giving out
orders for snacks (knowing that all of it was in house. some ppl actually went
for the snacks twice.
.god help ankit!!).Soon the snacks began to roll out and
poor ankit had no listeners for some time
. However once the part about free
passes to I-rock and the trip in November came up everybody was all ears
(ahem..ahem who doesn’t like free stuff!!)
After having their stomachs filled, some ppl decided to leave and some stayed
back to listen to Shaun’s song by metalica..which was awesome
(wish I knew to play the guitar!!).
Thus after some more announcements by ankit and some filling up of forms and
lists the meetup came to a end..and people went to their places with a promiseto meet soon!!
