Initiative and Interest!
At my initial stage, I was unaware of such events. As a middle-class girl, I only had the dream to achieve something great to make my parents proud. But during my 1 year, I was very much panic-stricken and I refused to take part in such events. As days passed my interest towards it became huge.
The main reason for my interest towards my symposium journey began with the encouragement of my peer group. We used to share all the upcoming event details through our unofficial college groups by which an interest had been developed for every one of us. This made us participate in various college events and compete with ourselves too.
