festival time





Eid Mubarak....Happy diwali ...little late but thats ok...three assignments were due this week and it was crazy. Its only now that i am getting some time when i dont have to think of any deadlines ( few days only though...)

I did not have any feeling of diwali here. I missed the diwali night organised by the indian families. There were no tickets ( some dumb problem you could say..) Some of the houses where girls live had lighted candles on the door step. Few drunk indian guys buys bursted a few crackers and shouted happy diwali at like 3 in the night. Bas apart from this it was just another day.

Ramzaan was nice. we went to the mosque for our prayer clicked a few pictures it was good.Felt like haan bhai we are also celebrating something.But then its not like being in india when you come back home from prayer, shona has cooked lovely sheer kurma for you ..hmmm...The other sad part here was that i had to attend class that day . It was so damn boring and of course irritating. In the night one of the guys gave us a party. he cooked delicious chicken which we hogged like mad. all of us were like ghar ki yaad aa gayi bhai and stuff like that. If not events like these living in here would be impossible. This is what keeps us going....the indian touch ..being with indians ....i hate staying in the dept...i just wait to come back to the apartment where i stay....


Ramzaan is done and we have to start worrying about cooking again..Its back to turns of who is going to cook....its back to cornflakes in the morning and concept of no lunch straight dinner thing...hmmm...

shona cooks well.....i enjoy her food .....w r u...???
