Gardenia 2007 was probably the most awaited event of the year for majority of the first year students at the GCC campus. Having spent a better chunk of their first few months on the campus listening to the seniors was eloquent about this inter-collegiate event, the average fresher had very high hopes and expectations from what was promised to be a feast for the senses.     And as it turned out, for the five days that the event was spread out, the mornings looked a trifle drab but once the events got underway, there were lots of happening to rave about. The outfits set the tone. Gardenians looked resplendent in their attire. The hospitality committee did a great job but it was the decoration committee that took the cake for their excellent work. Adding to the fun was Campus Radio which provided entertainment throughout the fest and everyone was tuned though they could have done better carrying more English tunes through the airwaves.     The evenings were definitely more gala and a fun-filled affair with most of the students at the college being active participants. A lot of dressing up was witnessed and many girls change their outfits during the day. The college also displayed its penchant for fashion show with virtually every department putting up a segment in which the students used to the hilt to shuttle down the ramp. The dances too were overwhelming with every department belting out a tune or two of the latest numbers.     Obviously there were some shortcomings with the Bangalore bandh coming in the way of the extravaganza but students did have great time.     The good news is that the younger batch has vowed to make next year's festival a memorable one. They have also decided to take active part in the events at the college to make their stay a worthwhile one.     To sum up, Gardenia 2007, a fun event started the semester beautifully and has given birth to the feeling of loyalty and love for the college and all that it stands for.
