MAXINATIONS 2005 - EVENT WITH A DIFFERENCE

Who would have thought that Maxinations an event which is fought for by all the hostel blocks on campus with full energy and capacity........might end up just differently........

ALL BLOCKS WINNING THE TROPHY

Generally Maxinations has created a lot of rivalry between the students themselves of competing blocks. The event is being held at a time when we have just around 2 weeks in campus, and we would have loved to leave the campus with friendships still intact as it was before and not pulled down due to the extreme love for respective blocks (the love for respective blocks still remains intact, but first and foremost we are XIMBIANS)

This time around also, the level of competition was heating up and the spirit with which the whole event should have been played with was no where to be seen. All the blocks in running were fighting for each and every point and all were ready to do just anything for them. Even small small things would be put up before the team conducting the event so that penalty can be put on the block targetted.

A lot many things happened, it reached a point where Students Council got involved. It was here after a lot of discussions, it was decided that MAXINATIONS - 2005 will continue, but with a change.......

The change being that, games will be played in the spirit in which games should be played, without any points and just for the heck of having great fun........and fun - that day was one of the best days out here.....everyone had great time.......

In the end, it was a great end, with the trophy being shared by all the blocks......all rivalries came to end and everyone was happy with the way it all went.

Kudos to the MAXIM team which conducted this event in the manner in which the Spirits soared among the XIMBIANS

Listening to: Send me an Angel by Scorpions
Reading: Planning to start "Digital Fortress" by Dan Brown
Blogging Holiday: From 25th Feb 2005 till 5th March 2005 - off to Gangtok trip with the XIMB gangsters.......

BTW had read "The Da Vinci Code" by Dan Brown in January after placements.......and would love to recommend it to everyone who have not read this book. Extremely fast paced......well scripted with a tight plot, with many sound facts......
