The theme was finalized as Desi and all the members dressed up in flashy/ traditional clothes at that day 

 There was a tappa competition, modelling ,  games, dancing and Jam session at the show. Food stalls were also arranged. There were three roumds of tappa competition and girls revived the punjabi tappas which was really revival of culture. After that modelling  was arranged in which approximately 26 girls participated in it. Musical chairs was the most interesting of all as random girls were chosen from the audience to play it. There was Gilgity dance and luddi also.

Fare......... fare

Scene 1: Three girls set from their university towards a near by hospital in order to do some community service. They had no choice but to use public transport . They decided to use a rickshaw as they considered it to be safer than cabs. None of them had much experience with the public transport but they decided to try their fate in the field of bargaining. They asked one Rickshaw about the fare he asked for Rs. 100. It was more than enough for such a short distance so they asked him to take Rs. 70. He agreed. They reached their within minutes and handed him a hundred rupee note and asked him for remaining money? "What money?" Asked the driver? I agreed on Rs. 100. Okay.

Today I found this little piece of information in my personal "archives". It was probably the first ever assignment submitted at the beginning of my professional studies. Its fascinating how human knowledge grows over time.......... "Changes in temperature affect aquatic life. Temperature determines which organisms will thrive and which will diminish in numbers and size. For each organism there is a thermal death point. Also there is a range of temperature of that produces optimal abundance. Climate change is a cause of increasing concern to scientists and it will have decisive effects on marine mammals. How climate change will affect the ocean, which is home to marine mammals, is hard to predict since there are many factors that affect ocean ecosystems but here my emphasis will be on the effect of rise in temperature on “whales”. Long time ago, due to environmental changes, Marine mammals evolved to live in the ocean, but the effects of climate change may be
