IPSA Banquet

The Indian Pakistani Student Association of The University of Texas at Dallas just put on a very successful show! The 2006 Cultural Banquet was a blast. I was so impressed by the great job the executive officers did with putting on the show!

Here are some pictures and videos of the night.. hope you enjoy it as much as I did! :)

Before the show started...

All the girls
Radhika, Shalini (my sister), Me, Srishti, and Pramila :)

Leon and Dillon... so called "best friends"
You won't out-friend Radhi and I!! aww you guys actually do make a cute couple though..

Prammy and Srish
Aren't they cute??? I love you guys!
This was before Srishti became "bumblebee-ified"

Nowww.. it's time for the show! I apologize in advance for all of the acts that I didn't get to take video of... It's only because I felt so enthralled by them and forgot! That, or my mouth was full of gulab jamuns :-D *drool*

The Paper Airplanes - Original Song (I don't remember the name)
Performed by Hassan Ali, Faheem Kehmani, Sumair Merani, and Shereen Surani


Okay after this first act I didn't take many other videos of the other dances.. Now I'm regretting it because they all were really good!! We did go crazy with pictures during intermission though.. Here they are:

Srish and Prammy
sooooo pretty!!! This was impromptu, too! They only had a split second of prep time

Leon and I

Radhi and Dillon

The girls
I love this picture! Srish and I are being silly and Prammy and Radhi are all perty hah..

Picture perfect :) Srish and I are bumblebees :-D tsssssss (That's the sizzling sound Prammy's making because she's so hot)

Me and Shmeon
Say cheeeessseee!!!

Srish and I
We just "tied the knot" so we're pretty giddy..

Me and beautiful Srishti!!
"bbbzzzzzzzz!!!"

Anoop and Leon
Meanwhile, Anoop and Shmeon took their own Keller/Coppell Pic (Copy-cats) Uh oh, Dillon.. it looks like you have some competition!!

Shal and Pramila
They got married too, apparently ...In Prammy's DREAMS!!

I was so disappointed that I didn't get footage (what would you call digital video... bytage???) of the other acts, especially the Bharatnatyam dancer and the Punjabi singer and Dholi.. they were so awesome.. GO GIRL POWER! :) But I did get a clip of the Dholi at the end... Here's the announcement at the end of the show with her playing...



That girl is so awesome.. I want to be her friend.
