Updates

Ok... it's been a while since I have posted anything about my life. So.. maybe some updates are in order...even at the risk of posting twice in one day.

Life has become sort of monotonous...sleep..eat... do homework... go to classes (or atleast some of them)...sit on the computer... play games...yeah.. you get the point. Nothing exciting as such.

Well, I did go for a show last weekend... a Diwali show. Diwali (short for deepavali), the Indian festival of lights... celebrating.. as always... the victory of good over evil... and also...to welcome the goddess of wealth. In India, people, much to the chagrin of environmental activists, burst a whole bunch of firecrackers. This causes all kinds of pollution. Birds are burnt to death.. and other animals cringe at the high decibal 'bombs' used. One is supposed to light up the house so as to show the path for the goddess of wealth. Diwali was one of my favourite festivals.. not least because of the firecrackers I burst. That's one thing I miss.

However... at Purdue, the Indian Student Association put up a very fine show with Dances and skits. So...I went for it. I decided to dress up and wear my 'sherwani' (a long flowing Indian dress). I do have a few pics....but my dad says that pics of me posing with girls is harmful for my marriage prospects. So... that picture shall not be posted on my blog. And that was the most exciting part of my week. err month.

Thanksgiving break is coming up... and I am planning to go to Chicago... watch the parade. Just for a few days... and head back to get other work done.
Well... thats the update.
