"Creating Our Own Group: A Journey of Passion, Collaboration, and Learning with Aakri Kada"

Me and three other like-minded individuals, Joseph, Krishna and Calvina decided to come together and form a group based on our shared love for the site, Store house 9. We called ourselves "Aakri Kada," which translates to "antique shop" in English.

With our excitement building, we approached our mentor, Melena, and shared our decision with her. She assigned us a fantastic tutor named Suzanne, who would guide us through the process of starting our group. Our first assignment was to create a contract that would help govern our group and ensure that everyone was on the same page.

Fortunately, I had prior experience in creating contracts during my professional career. I used my knowledge and expertise to create a draft contract for our group. To ensure that we had all the necessary elements and details in our contract, I also received help from my friend Ar Sriparvathy Unni, who is the HOD of ASADI College of Architecture.

With our draft contract in hand, we presented it to Suzanne, who was pleased with our work. She then provided us with the guidance we needed to execute the contract properly. As someone with experience in building contracts, the words flowed effortlessly, and the document took shape without any difficulty. It was a satisfying experience that left me feeling accomplished, much like Sheldon Cooper from "The Big Bang Theory" when he prepares contracts, which he is passionate about.

We got to learn so much about the site and about the history of the Dockyard from our research we did for preparing the contract. And with the right guidance and support, it's possible to achieve great things and learn from each other.
