BRAINWAVES is BACK!

Tonight while I was surfing the web in my Hostel Room, I decided to take a detour and opened the FAMT website. And I was absolutely glad to see the BRAINWAVES’2007 name flying high in the news ticker (http://famt.ac.in/brainwaves/ .

Ideally, the preparations must have already begun. My experience says that the last 20-25 days before the event are the most hectic... planning the food, accommodation, the stage backdrop, food menu, even the basic things like purchasing Mosquito repellents for use in the Participant accommodations and much more… The list is infact endless… I know this is just the tip of the ice-berg!

I still remember the wonderful time me and my 120 member strong organizing team had during BRAINWAVES'03. Those late nights and weekends, sleeping on a hungry stomach at times... and not sleeping at all at times (like at the time of dispatching the posters and getting the backdrop ready before D’Day)!

I Miss all those good old days… the rush of adrenalin that we used to get on receiving dozens of entries from every nook and corner of Maharashtra (BRAINWAVES was state level then!)…
the way Committee Coordinators motivated and led their committee members...
the Charismatic leadership of Sajiv Nair and Aditya Nogriya and the way they led the 1st State Level Brainwaves...
the hot coffee that Shintre Kaka (our very own Security Guard) prepared for all of us when we stayed in the college till late night…
the mouth watering Wada-Pav that someone (usually Anup Talwar) used to bring at 3:00 AM, from the middle of nowhere to our utter delight and which we ate with utmost relish…
and the happiness that we felt within for each pat on the back by our faculty members appreciating the work done by the entire BRAINWAVES family.

I am sure the legacy continues to grow with each and every passing year!

Over the year BRAINWAVES has brought about tremendous name and increased awareness and visibility about FAMT. BRAINWAVES, makes me a proud Finolexian even today and I am sure it has contributed in its own way to every single person’s life who has ever been a part of the BRAINWAVES family!

Sajid has already established a BRAINWAVES community on Orkut it’s adding new Ex- BRAINWAVESians every hour.

Keep up the good work! All the Best for making BRAINWAVES’07 a Thundering success! Yet AGAIN!!

Shine Always!
