finally my exams and assignments r over!!!!!!! n i m free to write about my unique diwali!!!
well i dont know if u guys know or not....that i have got a job for weekends at a south indian restaurant..bhimas...n my luck as it is diwali was on a saturday!!!!!!!!! so essentially what i am trying to say is i was working at bhimas on saturday...
well initially i was not at all happy.....i was like...yeh kya hai!!!!!!!! diwali ke din kaam karneka!!!!!! n i was really missing home n family....so i was feeling little bad.......but as the day progressed....it was fun...watching families come (remembered our families get together at tunga...the only difference was that this time around i was at the other side of the table...i was serving not ordering food)...big groups of people coming....so many groups of indians n non indians...it was nice to see non indians with a red teeka on the forhead...i was like it "sab mandir jaake aaye hai lagta hai :)"
to each guest we all would go n wish them......happy diwali......happy new yr....with a big smile...it was fun to be around indians...i was just exactly at the right place i think.....coz everyone who was celebrating diwali was at artesia...the mood was infectious :)
where else in long beach would i find so many indians at one place....the atmosphere was wonderful at artesia...the next day of diwali...we had a dinner of all the employees at bhimas...which was fun too...had thums up :)...we all had a good interactive session....people i work with are good :) more about it in some post!!!!!! will have to dedicate an entire post to it.....
well so coming back to diwali....at the end of the day...i was very tired...after a very hectic day we went for geeta's bday celebration, cake was very tasty.....at pranav et al's home they had kept 27 bhog prasad....i had vada pav after a long long time....it was a fun filled day...lots of laughter....lots of interaction....good people coming....apart from missing crackers n rangoli n everyone from my big noisy family.....the weekend went quite well!!!!!!!!! had a fun filled, unique diwali :) :)
song of the day : nickelback, far away....loved the lyrics....very beautiful
