Thirtieth

The countdown has begun in my head. Its 42 days till the end of end-sems. To the end of a journey. And to the end of perhaps the most amazing phase of my life. Well, I'll cut the senti feelings for later posts.

Focusing on the week that passed by, the high-point was the Budget Panel Discussion we (Abhishek & I) organised. We convinced two of our professors to take some time out and be the panelists for the session. We had to indulge in a bit of haggling but eventually all the doubts were ironed out. I utilized my newly developed Adobe Illustrator skills to make a poster in our quest to attract junta. And things fell in place. Over 100 people turned up, right on time - a rarity for student organised activities on campus. When the session concluded, almost everyone left with a satisfied expression. Hope this momentum is sustained.

Moving to the Adobe Illustrator story. So we had this 20% mid-sem project for the communications design course. We had to design some logos, icons, indexes and symbols for Indian Olympics. Although I intended to give 3 days for this project, but that's too ideal a scenario. So on the d-day, I install Illustrator and open up some tutorial videos. Last-minute panic fueled creativity and I designed/edited my project way beyond my personal expectations. Here are some of the best ones:

Indian Olympics Logo

Hockey Icon

Mallakhamba Icon

Kushti Index
