At the risk of sounding dramatic, I think ‘Against All Odds’ would sum up the experience of bringing about Sanvad ’09. But I’m going to concentrate on elaborating on everything positive that came out of this endeavor; One, for lack of enough space to spell out every little detail and two, if any thing reigns true, it is that more good comes from the positive!
They say the starting point to all achievement is desire. And if there’s one thing we had, it was desire. At the back of it all there were a few key things pushing the production of this exhibition apart from plain desire. We had to prove, more to ourselves than anyone else, that we could do it. And in the short month we had to prepare, we found our strengths, overcame weaknesses and pulled it off with a spirit of dedication and daringness.
Mistakes were made, lessons were learned and triumphs were celebrated.
The exhibition not only brought about more interaction amongst us students and developed camaraderie, but also a sense of learning .Learning, in all realms of a production from publicity, sponsorship proposals and deals to hospitality, research and implementation of ideas. I dare say we got a good lesson in management as well, not just of time but personal activities too.
In hindsight, we are better of for having given it our best shot and ultimately having succeeded in doing what we set out to. The long hours of planning meetings and designing posters and invites along with the brainstorming that went into space décor and panel layouts all paid off. There is a sense of humble satisfaction. I say humble because there’s only one way to say it – “Bigger and Better from Here”.
After all, what’s done is done. It’s time to plan what’s going to come.
