This was the prompt given to the on-the-spot collage competition
during the independence day celebrations which Huda and myself
participated. It was the first time i took part in collage competition
apart from hosting it while in college.
We had half an hour time to come up with a collage and we were the last minute registrants. We wanted a break from the everyday routine so we registered on the condition that the team hosting it had to supply us the newspapers, adhesives, cardboard. ( i know it was too much ;))
We went to the cafeteria where it was being hosted and were given the supplies. We were going through the different pictures in the papers when the HR announced the topic on which we were supposed to do the collage.
We finalised a few pictures which we thought made sense to the topic and while I was cutting them, huda went about glueing them onto the KG Card board that we were handed out.
We had decided that we will divide the cardboard into two halves- one half depicting the good and other half the bad aspects of 2020.
It came out well and finally the moment arrived when we had to say something about why we have chosen the pictures post which the judge asked a couple of questions.
This is what we did:
the good aspects about 2020 were: women empowerment, entrepreneurship, more emphasis to non academic concepts like music etc
While the bad aspects comprised of deforestation paving way to concrete jungles, advancements in warfare technology.
last but not the least the hand in the centre which was chained to depict that it was within us to make the world a better place to live in.
Seeing our collage, the judge was impressed and we were given first prize amongst the six teams which had participated.
We were beaming with pride.. :)
The second day of the celebrations had dumbcharades in which we participated and came first out of the 12 teams that had participated. Another first for me.. :) Thanks to huda who had trained me and also the various coded actions that we had practised. There were three rounds in which huda enacted the movie names in first and third round and I in second. I took less than ten secs to identify the movie names while it took abt 30-50 secs for huda as I was literally dumb and nervous. The movie names we got were
first round- Vicky donor(she enacted Ayushman and people around were dumb founded when I guessed the movie as they had expected that it was a little tough one to enact)
Second round- bombay talkies
Third round- bhootnath
