Animal Farm


Hola my friend!

Today was a busy yet beautiful day. I roamed quite a lot in college (didn't bunk classes on purpose though!).

I spent one such hour in quality! All thanks to my bubbly I BA juniors. It was their 'Animal Farm's day! I happened to watch the first three chapters of the play. I was simply awestruck by the way each team each year come up with a very new interpretation.

The first team was funny and informative. The team had Napolean speak too much (Eshal wore a cooling glass hehe^^ she looked cool and did suit the character pretty well) which basically insisted how the other animals were dominated by him. My favourite character in the play was Moses. Insoll beautifully depicted the invisible character (Insoll walked in and immediately left out.. barely saw him for 5 seconds). He had a good explanation for his disappearance, which eventually spotlighted the suppression of all the other animals including Old Major who was called 'old ass pig... That is boar' by sassy Napolean.

Insoll explaining using his body, mind and soul hehe...

The second chapter was my personal favourite. The animals were transformed into stationary items say the compass, ruler, pencil, pen and set square. The animal's rebellion against Mr.Jones was portrayed by the stationary item's rebellion against the GenZ kid. A particular line by the pencil stole my heart, "She (eraser topper) was rubbed and thrown away. She was my other half. I watched her lie in the corner of the room until the sweeper swept her away". The script was top-notch and funny at the same time. Throughout the play u couldn't stop smiling and clapping my hands. The kids also made sure to sing a song to potray the rebellion. The commandments they made up was ultra funny as well... For example... All School kids are our enemies... Never sleep in a pouch... No stationary is superior than the other, both the pen and pencil are equal... Never wear any fancy items like pencil covers, eraser toppers etc... and, one stationary item shall not fight with the other. The team did a great job:) I loved the energy of Napolean and the skibidi kid aka Esther Jung, I BA class rep!

And for the third chapter... My God... I'm a fan of Giftson from I BA now! The way he beautifully narrated and took forward the entire play in a political cum funny manner was simply brilliant. The script was hilarious (for example... 'Look Napolean holds a basic hindi book') and mind-opening. Kuddos to this team as well!

On the whole, the first years did an amazing job! Thanks to them, my day kicked start with laughter:) #AnimalFarmLegacyRemains

Happy reading! Adios:)

Hola my friend! 2025 started just now and it's already the last day of the first month. This month has taught me a lot and has also trained me in divine faith.  My main takeaway from January 2025 is self-confidence. At many insticts i doubt my own capabilities. But, this month has led me to muster up courage and try on new challenges. I got myself involved in various college and Church events and explored a new environment all together. In addition, I also used the platform to volunteer for various programs which has led me become a patient observer. It has paved a pathway for me to learn new things.  Despite focusing on academics alone, I trained myself with the unwavering support of God to face the new obstacles in life. It was definitely chaotic with too much going in my head at the same time, but I was able to organize stuff and manage time decently.  January has built self love in me and has also strengthed me to fly high in altitude over the months to co...

Hola my friend!  Thoughts are intricate openings of the heart. And here I am, Andrea, sharing my lil thoughts to thrive! Life is filled with ups and downs right? There are days when you are overflowing with anxious thoughts and days when you have none to worry about. And today was a brain wracking day for me, when I started worrying about what life had for me. But ain't each problem got a solution in itself. The solution lies right in front of you and may only be a simple momentary feel that gives you relief. My anxious thoughts had a simple solution - SMILE and here is a poem sharing my experience with you.  Along the street I stroll Lost in my uneasy soul, Staring at the bright blue sky, Filled with gloom to my eye. Thoughts worth millions unfold As I waggle without a hold, Stumbling over the rock of pain, That life has taught me to gain. All at once, the thoughts depart Altered by blossoms of the heart, Resulting from a greeting awhile Bubbling with a heartwarming smile. Th...

Hola my friend! Today was a memorable day loaded with wonderful interactions. I went to attend a book release ceremony in Nungambakkam. The journey was splendid. Let me share a glimpse of my lovely travel. First off, by coincidence, I met my dear friend in the railway station. Following that me and my friends - Lekha and Catherine started off by Train to Nungambakkam.  The train journey was pleasant and melancholic with the tinge of raw mango and pineapple. We then headed off to Park Hotel where Sabari anna joined us. The book release ceremony started off with a delicious buffee. After filling up with delicacies, the ceremony began and the book "Hidden Agendas" authored by Ajit and Anil was released. Before the ceremony and even after it, we, the small bunch that headed off from MCC, met a varied mass of great people. There were great writers, publishers, directors and actors amidst us. It was a privilege to meet and interact with each one of them. In addition, we...
