I'm Back (minus 8)

I'm back!!!!
Actually, I've been back for about eight days now....

Sowweee *insert puppy-dog face*

But...
OHMYROWLING CAMP WAS THE BEST THING EVER AAAHHH ASDFGHJKL MFKNMDEKNG KGNKDNG I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME PERSON AGAIN AND I CRIED WHEN WE ON OUR WAY BACK IT WAS SO EPIC I COULD DIE.

I mean, camp was Stupendous and it seriously has changed things about me and I felt pretty damn miserable when we got on the train from Dehra Dun.

I'll totally tell you guys all about it when I get the time cuz right now I need to go revise Karmveer and Ram-Sugreev Maitri (poems for the Hindi test tomorrow).  Also, I want to watch my favourite Bengali serial Boyei Galo with my parents ;)

Book Suggestion: A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. (That book was simply AMAZING... I'll write a separate blog post on it some time)
English Song Suggestion:
Hindi Song Suggestion: Woh Lamhe by Atif Aslam

Also, Grey's Anatomy is getting SO boring.... it makes me a little sad....

Alvida,

Squish

of lights and colored sand

Well hello.

IT'S DIWALI!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah!

It is, really.
Now for those of you who don't know, Diwali is the Indian, Festival of Lights. It's really beautiful.... It's to celebrate the returning of Ram to his home, Ayodhya after his 14 year exile. (Ram was a dude in this ancient story called the Ramayana written by this chap called Valmiki... check it out on Wikipedia if you want cuz I ain't ellaboratin' no more :p )

Anyway, we people, light up colorful diyas and make rangolis.
I made one outside my house so...

The  thing in the centre with the candle in it, is a diya and the colored

design itself is the rangoli.

Yeah, I made that :)
The rangoli is made from different, vibrantly hued powder with the texture of sand.... It's fun to make.... But it gets annoying because, when most people so it  by cutting out a shape in cardboard and then pouring sand into it to get definite shapes, I however, attempt it with a funnel (I'm so great right) which sometimes results in a mess... :p

It's Diwali holidays now!!!
I wish I could say that 'I'm free' but I'm not... Insensitive teachers with their need to be pile-ons. (see what I did there?)
Our break lasts ten whole days, out of which seven days, I'm not even in the same state as my school.

THAT'S RIGHT FOLKS!!!
Cuz Imma get myself to CAMP!!!!

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so excited!!!! We're going on this amazing trip to the Himalayas (If you don't know what they are, GET OUT OF HERE AND NEVER RETURN) where we're gonna be trekking and living in tents in this base camp. We're doing this whole List of Activities that's gonna be Ehpihc. :D

I've packed a rucksack (I've never used one before... It's all new to me) and a small travel bag. (they keep calling it a 'knapsack' but the word sounds evil to me.... )

Oh two days back I got a really bad stomach infection, and now I'm on anti-biotics... (I ALWAYS manage this) but I'll be fine :)

Happy Diwali peeps!!!

Alvida,

Squish.
