Nostalgia: Illuminati for Life (1)

Once an Illuminati you truly are branded an Illuminati for life.


Presenting to you Nostalgia: the tensions, the apprehensions, the excitements, the fights, the tears, the fears, the memories - for life!


A very famous Illuminati (also well known for his stint with HnM) recounts his experiences -
"Coming back to the campus, on the day of Rural Illumina 2011, I had updated my status message on fb as “Beaten up, tired and exhausted....but fun it was!” Beaten up…I actually was, with a bruised finger. So difficult was handling the crowd at the Pataudi Mela. Yet, all I cared about was the latter part of the statement.

It was then that it dawned on me: Urban Illumina, three weeks later, would be the last time I would be involved in organizing a college fest of any kind. 
The satisfaction there is in successfully organizing a college fest, in planning for months, and successfully executing it, was something that was extremely thrilling, and I was about to do it for one last time.

At that moment, I knew, I was willing to go through all that exhaustion, may be even not mind getting beaten up, for going through that feeling one last time.

As I sat back at the t-shirt stall, listening to Nasya perform after the Mela, finally relaxing after weeks of hard toil and sleepless nights, I felt that satisfaction, a feeling of job well done. And that is a special feeling…"
It is always special to have our seniors and super seniors talking about Illumina. Do share with us if you would like to say/complaint/shout/reminisce/blabber anything.

Always
Illuminati
