CSR Club Antar

I have become the part of CSR club Antar which is an initiative launched by our college students. The first activity under the CSR club was launched today. We have collected clothes for the poor people. This initiative was conducted in partnership with Gooonj and NGO working for the downtrodden people. We had kept boxes near the college canteen and had asked the students to donate clothes. We plan to do more activities in the near future. 

E-Commerce project

I am doing a new project in ecommerce which is basically a site about Climate change and global Warming. Today I and one of my friend Vaibhav talked to Dr. S.K.Gupta regarding this and h agreed that this can be a good project . Initially he had given a list of 10-12 topics from which we had to choose but had also left open the option of doing an ecommerce business. I think that this is a great time to spread awareness about global warming and so I have decided to try this. This will also be an important point in my resume.

Shock

Today I got a rude shock as my result for the second trimester was declared. I have failed in marketing which is my favorite subject. I still fail to understand how could I fail in the paper as the paper was pure application based. We had to answer questions about how to promote a perticular product or how to conduct a perticular survey. Now I will have to give the repeat exam in 10 - 15 days. Tis time I will be do my best and I am confident to clear it
