It was an exciting experience because I was able to do many things for the very first time, it pushed me out of my comfort zone and I ended up having more fun than I ever would have! I am glad to have gotten an opportunity to do something like this, especially with my friends. In the organizing committee, I designed posters and passes for the event, here are some examples:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-408\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Introduction-to-Minimalist-Design-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Introduction-to-Minimalist-Design-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Introduction-to-Minimalist-Design-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Introduction-to-Minimalist-Design-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Introduction-to-Minimalist-Design.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-409\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Shubh-Avsar-2019-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"643\" height=\"643\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Shubh-Avsar-2019-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Shubh-Avsar-2019-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Shubh-Avsar-2019-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Shubh-Avsar-2019.jpg 530w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 643px) 100vw, 643px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>LOs:<\/p>\n<p>LO1:\u00c2\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth<\/span><\/p>\n<p>When I took part in Garba Fest, I was asked to dance in the flash mob. I have always been a bad dancer and have been terrified of the thought of doing it in front of others. I knew I would have to work hard in order to achieve what I wanted to and worked with the aim of becoming both better at dancing and more confident.<\/p>\n<p>LO2:<\/p>\n<p>In order to work on my dance skills, I would try to replicate videos, come early to school and even went over to a friends&#8217; house for extra practice. I had to work hard to replicate moves that my friends could do effortlessly, all while dealing with the impact that had on my self-esteem. However, after all of it, I came out with a better understanding of my body and as a slightly better dancer.<\/p>\n<p>LO4 &amp; LO5<\/p>\n<p>I would come early and go to the meetings in order to make sure I could complete my part. I was vigilant in meeting all the deadlines and I practiced at home to become a better dancer. I couldn&#8217;t come early for a day or two since I had fallen sick and in order to cover up, I went to my friend&#8217;s place where they made sure I improved, I was happy to do this because it was a fun task and I knew that I had to be a good team player for the event to be successful. It was EASY for me to commit because I enjoyed the task. Working with a group of people, all with various inputs and advice on how to help me improve. When I couldn&#8217;t cope up, Devanshi helped me slow it down and understand how it worked on her own time. When I couldn&#8217;t remember the moves, Sanya patiently taught me every step again. When I was worried, Surbhi and Priyanshi comforted me. I was constantly reminded of my need for a team.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, the event gave me a lot of new experiences and insights. Dancing with my friends in the flash mob and playing Garba until I had blisters was immensely fun &#8211; decor taught me tricks I didn&#8217;t know and designing posters challenged me creatively.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-405\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.28.11-PM-300x195.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"614\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.28.11-PM-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.28.11-PM.png 766w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-407\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.24.26-PM-300x200.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"599\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.24.26-PM-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.24.26-PM-768x513.png 768w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.24.26-PM.png 926w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 599px) 100vw, 599px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-406\" src=\"http:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.25.15-PM-300x220.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"601\" height=\"441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.25.15-PM-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/classof2021.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Screenshot-2019-09-17-at-2.25.15-PM.png 747w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I participated in Garba Fest (Shubh Avsar) this year as a member of the organizing committee and as a participant in the flash mob\/the actual event.
