Singing infront a crowd full of 'strangers'- how fellow beings at BNVCTE uplifted my social life and confidence. (watch video)

BNVCTE, Thiruvallam have been a refreshing experience in my entire higher education life. During the initial days, students interacted openly with each other even in the absence of teachers,  taking initiatives to know one another better. 
Here is a video of me singing 'aayiram kannumayi' in the classroom. It is extremely rare for me to sing, that too infront of a crowd.  The following video is from hardly 3 4 days into  ollege, which it self shows how tremendously moving the experience was from the start itself.
