What is the most memorable thing that happened in your college days?

My dear besties,
Peethal Poorma sun le o choriya
So a week before our durga puja holidays our seniors announced that we would organize a Garba night in SRB ground. It was a complete surprise for us that garba in west bengal !!
A hint of cold air ran through the crowded SRB ground and the loud lyrics resonated
Since we were in third year, we were in charge. The extrovert hostilities gang as usual shouldered all responsibilities like collecting money , arranging decorators, dj , snacks etc. Whatsapp groups were formed for a competition of who would own the title of Garba king and Garba queen.
It's December now and legends and rumours say they are a couple now.
In between we drank some cold drinks and ate hot chaat served in stalls . The “ good girl” in me was constantly fretting where to wash my mouth. I frantically searched for a bottle in everyone's hands and told Astha “ see that's why I was going to carry that huge jhola ( bag) with bottle ,but you didn't let me saying it would hamper my looks!”
Photosession continued. Bipasa started vlogging , I stopped my cartoon like dance to appear sober in her video. The day ended with one of my batchmate as Garba king and a first year junior as Garba queen.
So this ends my imaginary answer…because you see my college life was hardly happening , especially this third year. No trips because parents are too strict. We lived our days in 4 walls ( me and my friends ).

May be we didnt make enough moments like others but don't worry deep here in my mind we have lived as many as possible…
Our YouTube and insta feed got filled with dandiya steps and garba steps . Myntra ,flipkart , Amazon earned our maximum screen time in searching appropriate Gujarati style ghaghra. We spent 2 days just searching and in the remaining days we had no choice but to pick the one that would be delivered early.
I was standing quietly and soon got plucked by a dancing circle which kept getting bigger. I came to know many new faces.
It took me a while to break into dance ,but my friends had already started. Juniors stole the show with their energy. Senior made late entry as usual and stole everyone's attention . There I could see my crush among them ,looking funny and cute in that outfit. Boys were not a great fan of such decorated outfits they were forced to wear ,but after seeing each other they got used to it.

The surprise of the day was when I caught my crush looking at me . He loved black and I knew he would wear it ,so secretly I had chosen that colour ghaghra which others thought “ what a coincidence!”
I shrank away from such dance competition as usual ,but to my utter surprise whole batch was into it ,even the most introvert ones. Couples had dragged their unwilling boyfriends into participation.
Mine was black with mirrors embroidered in red threads in borders. Astha flaunted a beautiful golden dupatta with some details hanging in its margins matching her shiny jhumkas. Bipasa as usual had another detailed blouse with a gorgeous neckline that flaunted a necklace she had bought from her hometown. Madhurima arrived late that night and was shining with her bluish green lehenga that looked like a peacock , matching the clinking sparkly bangles her graceful hands carried.
