War of PJs


At IIT Roorkee, there was a competition called 'War of PJs'. In this competition, many students from various colleges had taken part. Already 2 days of prelims had taken place, first day being a written competition and the second one in front of the audience. In the 2 days, about 20 students had been selected. On the last day of the competition, I was just roaming around with my friends in a park, adjacent to which this competition was being held. The anchor just announced that there is a break in the competition and he wanted some PJs from the audience. My friends then advised me to speak out some of my various PJs I crack the whole day (people who closely know me would agree to that). I was hesitant initially, but got into the groove with time. I cracked about 10-12 of my funniest PJs and my excitement level started increasing exponentially. After some time, when the original contestants were ready, the break ended and the competition resumed. This for my friends and me meant that its time to go to the other events. But suddenly, the anchor called out my name and we all were stunned. It was a sort of wild card entry (As we see in reality shows on TV). Then they asked me to give my best shot, as I had to compete with the contestants now. I again lost hope to the competition and thought wouldn't be selected for the next level. But again, I was wrong......I again got selected. Two rounds after that, I was amongst the three top contestants. By this time, my PJs were finished and I got the 3rd position. I am not at all disappointed to have got the 3rd position, it’s the appreciation to my PJs is something I really liked. And above everything, I enjoyed to the fullest during the event with full help of my friends!!!!
