If you’re a Kemcolian and are into videos n music (and psychiatry cases :P), 23 rd April must have been YOUR day!! Yup, tis was the day KAPS presented its much awaited ‘Interclass Video Competition and Music Show’. 'Happiness lies around us'- Pursuit of Happiness, Humkhayal, 1st Year WHAT AN EVENT!!! With videos that were bigger and better than last year and musical performances that rocked the stage, it was truly a day to be remembered! Creativity soared sky high with every year making excellent video contributions… though Wapda’s contribution to the event seemed the most noticed! Oddly, ‘going nuts’ seemed a popular theme this year. Spooky! The event also highlighted the winners of the live sketching and photography contests. To Make A Rose Bleed- By Zauraiz, 3rd Year Videos exhibited included Mirage, The Pursuit of Happiness, Ishq Laahasil, To make a Rose bleed and many more though the ‘Oscars’ went to the following: Qabr Sai Mazaar Tak Concept by Harri

5 th I nter- c lass s hort v ideo c ompetition w ith M usic S how , thumbs up for all those who made this event a  big-big  success in all aspects ! Such a team work ! A list of names and series of faces moving on the “ time line” of this event in my mind ! Such a team work ! I am glad I had a hardworking innovative  team : ready to think creative : ready to implement the ideas ! I feel, this event  itself was like” Making a video ”.....A "new file" (taking permissions for the video competition) was created months ago. The "Producers" handled  ticketing job much better than what was expected by me. Those on "Publicity" came up with innovative ideas of presenting on the Zero point  all that which was coming up in the event as the outcome !  Music Section started working on the "Music-Overlay tracks" (the stage performances and hosting), they screened all so good , got many instrument players to stage , English Urdu vocalists

That the world is getting a crazy place to live in with every passing day, is no big secret. As the French street artist JR, winner of TED prize 2011 very appropriately puts it, "You have dictators ruling the world, population is growing by the million, there's no more fish in the sea, the North Pole is melting and...we're all becoming fat. Except maybe French people!" And things are no different at home. There are so many things wrong with the way the country's been run, so many things amiss in how our nation and our society is evolving as a whole...at times it just feels like this big bowl of spaghetti. You lift out just a little with your fork and end up having a huge pile of tangled 'serpentines' looping around in your plate.You pick out some and the whole lot comes slithering in. But that's the way things are. Somehow, some way you've got to toughen it out and make your way around all the burgeoning towers of madness, hypocrisy and gloom

Why do Names of Carpel Bones remind Lulu of a boat, a full moon , an empty cube ...? How much imagination do you use while learning your subjects ? If I talk of a beating heart , can you imagine that ? Yes ! Reason ? You've seen animations of beating heart numerous times . Its easy ! If I ask you to name the types of muscles in the body , you'll easily recall them as bipennate ,  cruciate , trianglar etc etc . Right ? Reason ? You've seen the diagrams in GA . Good ! Now if I ask you to imagine the NAMES of tarsals or say the carpels , can you imagine THAT ? Not that easy ! Reason ?  They have no animation. No diagrams either. You have no mental imagery for them. They are just a heap of alien-sounding words. Aren't they ? Be it the Latin-Greekish terms for gazillions of tissues in Anatomy or tongue-twisting names of drugs in Pharma, students find it hardest to memorize and retain them. Reason ? There is no underlying pattern or STORY of the informatio
