Waves 07- the urban chaos

Waves -07 was famous as the biggest cultural festival in the party state of  goa. But from my point of view it is more important as a festival that transformed the mindsets of many individuals who beleived bits pilani goa as any other ordinary engineering institute but with the birla tag, to something thats as capable as its sibling- the pilani campus. The three day cultural extravaganza was a show case of the hard work of hundreds of bitsians for more than a ninety days. Stages were set up behind the administrative B-wing plaza besides the lecture halls and the amazingly big state-of-the art auditorium. I was a junior then and was very interested in contributing my best for the biggest event of bpgc. The whole event  was organized decently well, with the work being distributed and coordinated by different committes. I was involved in putting up the publicity material inside the campus. It was almost 1 in the night the day before waves  (we needed special permissions to stay outside our hostel). The inaugural ceremony of waves 07 goes as a fond memory into the pages of my life. The whole campus was filled with the enthusiastic students who flocked the stages. Never a dull moment in the whole three days. My day was filled with covering the event, managing the venues, helping the students of other colleges through the routes( they were envious of the fact that we stayed in such a beautiful campus ). The evenings had  head banging rock shows that echoed every corner of the campus. The fire wallz- students in charge of the campus security worked their asses out through out the event and really deserved a pat. The organizing committee, sponsorship committee, the publicity committee, the department of backstage, the department of photography, basically all the clubs in the campus tried to be impeccable as far as their  work was concerned and have contributed in their own way to the grand success of waves 07. DJ Sasha’s special nite on day 2 was awesome which made even guys completely exhausted tap their feet to the trance. Bhayanak maut and Half step down were good as usual. Rock bands from goa gave some of their best performances infront of the B-wing dome during the event. One event of waves 07 that jampacked the auditorium and enthralled the audience was Mr n Ms Waves. The timely comments by Prakhar made the three thousand people laugh their hearts content on the evening of third day( He did get a hug from the gorgeous Vanessa- Ms Waves 07 for that ofcourse ). The whole day work and in sufficient sleeps  made us completely tired, believe me..i did sleep once infront of 15000 watts of music  :0  . All the pain the bitsians had put in the previous three months had its fruit then in the form of the stupendous Waves -07.
