Juwal Bose Says

Jaleel was the one who informed me about this barcamp being help for the first time in Kerala. The decision was instant, even when there was only 2 days to make the schedule and lots of works to complete, we decided to b apart of it. It was the 24Nov sat. The sunday one employee was getting engaged and we had to make that too. SO we just hoped this one to be worth it. The plan was all laid out instantly. Anish will join me and eldhose on the way at kayamkulam at late night 1.20 on the train. We were to get in Egmore Xp. Now on short notice we decided to get some samples of the brochure printed. FOr something to work out we needed emergencies SO by evening 645 we had the final draft of the brochure, all was done perfectly by salini and now it was upto us to get it printed. We never knew what to expect, if we could make the train at 10.30. The designer made an effort to get things movig asap. And by 915 we had 4 brochures with us. The colors seemed different, the different sides were out of match. And we had to compromise on the size. Well it is a sample right.
We got one bus to Aluva and we were not much hopeful about catching the train. Meals were skipped and banans were taken. But the good thing was, the train was late and we got in. Also there was not much rush and we got sitting space in general compartment. As expected anish was no where to be seen at kayamkulam. So we thought he will catch up at tvm. We got out at station at 345 am and got a room at the dormitory. ANish called early morning and he slept at the visitors room at kayamkulam. We got ready at 6.30 and by 7 we started to kazhakkottam.
We reached bhavani building where it was to be held. After enquiring at a lot of places atlast we found the place. One student was standing at the doors of the hall. No one else was there. We decided to have food. All were having stomach problems and sleep hangovers. This better be good. When we reached back, we met some kool guys who were the organisers of the meet. Kenny, renjith, and the gang was working hard to get this done. This being a 0 budget endeavour, was superbly executed. The flaw was that there were not much quality crowd with whom we could share some talk. Majority were students and there was no point making an impression on them. They are the future and they should be making better stuff than us. We were supposing to get a glimpse of Android- the google mobile platform. We talke don it with renjith who was the one supposed to take the seminar. Vishnu took a presentation in game dev in Ruby. We also thought for a while on taking a presentation. But the crowd made us decide against that. At noon we started back, to reach back home at 12 mid night. And to our dissappointment we found the brochure untouched. But what the hell we made the brochure finally.
