1. Tell us more about your role and responsibilities at your college?
Responsibility
of a student isn’t one only when they hold a position in the college politics
it comes from the time they enter their first class. College is like the step
before career and therefore holds utmost importance. It shapes your future this
is the time when you can grow and explore. As a student biggest responsibility
is to grow to follow your passion and at the same time secure a future. Whether
academically or other fields ones future is in their own hands. And by the time
you attend college you become accountable for it therefore taking your future
seriously becomes the most important and difficult responsibility keeping all
those more appealing distraction in mind.
2. How did you rise up to your position and how can a
student aspiring the same, approach it?
I have a youtube channel dedicated to dance.
Dance being my passion and this lockdown period giving me apt amount of time to
pursue it made me create it “Nakhrali Ada”. Though previously conscious about
response it gets it worked out quite smoothly. Biggest step is to start
something once you start it becomes clearer how to progress. Opening this
channel not only made me confident it also became a medium for me to keep
engaged in this stressful times. It taught me time management as well as the need
to be ordered and keeping order in things and made me realize that each video
required a lot of planning though it seemed simple in thinking.
3. What have been some of
your biggest challenges and learning from what you do?
Biggest challenge is to think something new
and complete the task in a given time. Giving time to other activities to being
regular to it. Not all videos will get the same response still keeping up the
spirit while uploading the next video. This experienced taught me a lot too. Managing
the pressure of having a deadline. To short down lists of songs to which would
be more apt. Appearing in front of camera and handing the requirements. Trying
to excel in something that you had no clue to and still working diligently for
it.
4. What did you do in your current role that makes you
feel really proud of yourself?
Taking the
big step of making the channel really made me proud. Uploading videos is easier
compared to taking the first step on clicking on the create channel button.
With it came a responsibility a hope which had to be maintained. Uploading the
first video and seeing it out there also gave quite a satisfaction. Completing
the editing and viewing it till not bored was a happiness of other kind. It
gave a feel of accomplishing something in life...though it was just a small
step.
1. 5. What's
your message to encourage students to do internships and attend conferences?
Internships provide a perspective wider than
what you already have. They give you an opportunity to go and see a world which
you believe to enter once out of college .It gives an environment and
knowledge. Attending seminars makes you more aware about a topic and gives your
mind food for thought.
