Introduction:
As per the short story spoken by the student the group activity was carried out accordingly.
“I got a phone call one day by my dancing trainer, regarding an event coming up. I was asked if I could dance for the event, as I was part of that dance group from the outset. I accepted the invitation and pursued to take part in the respective practices set up building up to the event due date.
The catch of this invitation was that we had to travel for a long time in order to reach the destination where the event would be held. The entire dance group, including me prepared for two day trip (staying one night over). We took a 7 hour journey to the destination which was quite tiring but fun at the same time, as we all travelled with friends.
We reached our destination at night hours, so we were too tired to practice and therefore decided to call it a day and practice tomorrow. Thus, we woke up in the early morning hours and held a practice session before we went ahead for the light/dress rehearsal. We carried out a full rehearsal at the auditorium and came back to the residing hotel to get dressed. We changed into our costumes and got our makeup done and headed back to the auditorium for the event. After the event was over, we had to leave the same day as we didn’t book the hotel for two nights, and as a result we had to come back to the hotel and get changed instantaneously before leaving the destination. After a long day, we left the hotel at midnight and arrived back home in the early hours of the next day.
It was a tiring but even more exciting personal experience which I was able to take part in, and it would be locked away and cherished in my memories forever.”
