In the canteen...

The scene at the canteen was worth a sight. There was a queue of first years and parallely were the seniors sitting. An air of authority was so evidently lingering about them. The concept was very simple. You had to give your intro(short for introduction- not used because it sounded a bit 'uncool') to about 40 seniors and finally at the end of it you became the centre of attraction, with a special performance.

By the time Sree and Swastika had reached the front of the queue, they were witness to some classic scenes. Some of which could make you role on the floor with laughter when you were a mere spectator- but things took an evident U-turn when you were the victim.

Two boys and and girls were called out from the line. The girl was asked to play the fire, and the guys were asked to take 'pheras' around her...

A girl was asked to recite the table of 'quack'
quack ones are quack
quack twoes are quack quack
quack threes are quack quack quack...
and this continued until both the speaker and the listeners both lost count...

A timid looking girl who seemed to have never smiled in life was asked to Laugh in sine curve fashion...

The boy in front of them was called, soon it would be their turn...

The boy seemed to have just stepped out of his mom's lap, he was asked to do a cat-walk. All he managed was to walk three steps, and then somehow his feet got entangled and he fell flat on the face. Sree's heart ached for him. She turned around to look at Swastika. But the damage has been don by then. Swastika was in the middle getting him back to his feet. Much to their surprise, Swastika was allowed to leave....

Sree was asked some mathematical riddles which she managed to get by...

Next was Arushi, she was asked to pose  a burning candle...
She clearly said," I wont do it..."...
