Gudi Padwa (Marathi New Year; the same day is celebrated under different names in various parts of the country- including Ugadi (Andhra Pradesh), Cheti Chand (Sindhi New Year), Navroz (Parsi) and the beginning of the Navratras) morning was spent cleaning up my room; we had a presentation in the afternoon which was rather okay; we went out for dinner in the evening, to celebrate the beginning of the New Year.
Later in the night, we had a Lady-members-only SAC EC meeting in the hostel.

I transported my dirty clothes to the newly started Xpress-o-mat, earlier this evening. We’ve since been working on our presentation for our course on ‘Introduction to Business History’; it shall be presented in class, early on Monday morning. Our topic deals with McDonalds’ success as a global brand, with emphasis on the franchise business model.

A lot of announcements have been made, over e-mail of course. Zephyr, our new initiative shall see its first session on the evening of Monday, 23rd March at 6:15 p.m.
Retorica has announced its much-awaited event- D’Battle- it shall include, over three evenings an MUN and a British Parliamentary Debate.
The Music Club has begun an initiative that they’re calling ‘Practice Groups’- it’s essentially a platform for all like-minded musicians to get together and jam!
The elections for Atharv-Coordinator shall be held later on Monday evening. All students of the 2013 & 2014 batches shall vote. The final list of applicants who’ve survived 3 rounds of pre-process shall be made public, right before the actual voting.

And, we have an order of Chicken Lollipops sitting on our bed, courtesy the night mess. My friend here demands that I join her, since eating alone makes her feel like a ‘bhukad’. I shall be off!
