Musical Nite @ NITC

Musical Nite @ NITC is a phenomenon by itself. So after one year at NITC, I'm gonna point out some salient features of this 'thing' thst happens at certain intervals!
Its held at OAT aka Open Air Theatre. Till before we'd been there, from the description our seniors gave, we'd really wonder what that bloody place would be like. After our first visit, we knew atleast it wasn't bloody! Hey just kidding! Its actually nice, and the best part is that its ours, it belongs to 'us'!
Its actually a terror ground for freshers. My first visit, my seniors made me sit with my back to the stage - though i'm sure they didn't do that deliberately! - but I was too terrified to point that out to them!
Another phenomenon you'll be introduced to at NITC is the 'fish pond'. Either its really called that or it just sounds like that to me! So this 'fish pond'thing is basically the dedication counter where i think you gotta pay too. Its supposed to be a fun thing but I've seen quite a few people fretting over the dedications they recieve!!

My own fish pond story is quite sad. Everytime I've recieve a dedication, the guy'd come running to apologize and say that his friend or senior sent that!
Poor me! I'm yet to recieve a dedication 'straight form the heart'!!
Musical nite obviously means there's gonna be music, which sorta hints there'll be dance too, right? So dance there is, but that's not all. For its NITC and its OAT, even the heavens agree its got to be special. So everytime there's a musical nite, and there's music and there's dance, there's rain! And then the red color from the OAT stands comes off and spoils all our dresses!!
Then comes the most interesting part, because this is totally from my own observation: there are two kinds, better say, categories of people at 'musical nite'. One category is people like me, who go with their friends, groups of girls or guys or maybe both, who go there to chat, dance and basically chill out! The other category of people turn up for their sweethearts! They sit side by side, talking into each other's ears - I don't know if they can really hear each other through all that noise and the rest of us jumping and dancing around them or if they just pretend to be able to, to us and to each other! Some of them appear really sweet but they are a class of their own, and I'm sorry if I hurt anyone by this interpretation of mine but I find it real funny! I'm just rude enough to admit it - I find them hell funny! But you know what? Everyone else thinks this way too, I'm only too blunt to admit it!
The last thing I'd like to say about 'musical nite' is that there's yet to be one I thoroughly enjoyed or where I thought the music was nice, if not all that nice! My apologies to all offended, once again - I realise it takes a lot to put up a 'musical nite' but this is what I feel!
