Week 4 had a major exception....
Oxford IMPS

IMPS is kind of a drama society of Oxford student. They had hollowing show on Monday and I went there with Jitin Dhanani (who is interested in working at IMPS). There were about four girls and four blokes. And they didn’t have anything already set. The complete one hour performance was ‘online’.... The theatre was very small and completely full. People were standing wherever possible. But these IMPS people controlled the crowd very effectively. They made us participate. They used to ask the crowd questions and then perform according to answers. For e.g. Tell any place – crowd would say CASTLE. Then tell who is in the castle? Crowd: Ghost. And they will perform for 10 mins about ghost in Castle. You won’t believe this is not practiced before. Not a single time did they went speechless or boring. And the last show was amazing. They had a musical show based on the inputs from crowd. And the sound and light of the theatre was as effective as any Marathi theatre. What a great show.... Really amazing. Glad I went there....

MBA Snaps
Then as I mentioned earlier, had a photo session at SBS. See the snaps here:

SBS Photo Session

As you could see, had some fun with our subfusc.... funny dress... may be won’t feel that funny when we will wear it during the exams....

Other than that the week was pretty much regular.

Week end:
Firework
Many many years ago a bloke named Guy planned to blow up the British common house. Apparently he failed. But the crazy Brits celebrate this day by lighting up the firework. At South Park, few thousand people had gathered for this event. They had the firework and at the end they had a bonefire where they burned a replica of this Guy. Kind of mix of Diwali and Ramlila.... Saw ‘Fulbaji / fulzadi’ there and remembered Diwali in India. Nonetheless it was one spectacular show. Though had to pay 6 quids (british equivalent for bucks) for that, it was worth it. At least five MBAs were supposed to join me. Only one turn up. But as I said, I had fun. See the snaps below.

October Friday Firework

On Sunday I was pretty much busy in study. We have two big and mathematical assignment due next week. I tried to work on finance assignment and after almost 4 hours of work I am nowhere. May be would talk to the study group tomorrow to find out if anyone has any clue about it. Overall coming week looks like a gruelling one due to assignments. And again its a Diwali time. We are celebrating it here. So may have to spend some time in organizing the event. Anyways. Still got time to play touch Rugby today. Added couple of more bruises but last week’s bruises healed. So good to go again 
