On 1st November,its gonna be Dewali(Deepavali) celebration….Well,the students are all real excited bout this holiday esp those from the north…Awal-awal already they bunk class in order to ga back home.So class has been rather empty this past few days…even worst today…I doubt there will be anyone in Community Medicine class later in the afternoon(Dont it sux to have classes on Saturday too) Anyways,its so nice to see all the locals going bac to the home town..It kinda feel like in ktt where i see all my frens going bac home for the weekend and the only place i could go to for the weekend was my aunts place or fren’s hse…But at least ill have more time to really sit down and study…Since exams is next month and i have been doing nothing but fooling around or simply wasting time…haha…
Yesterday,there was a dewali party organized by the seniors(the seniors here damn mengada-ngada,like to force us to go for this kind of functions and act as if they so great)well,i thought it was gonna be fun since they are having fireworks display and later a dance party…so why not rite???just to see how they celebrate dewali…so i went together with meng yee,loges,wendy,mei Xuan,hong ling and wan ping.They started off with sum praying thing called pooja…i didnt take part but just watch from far…then they started off with the firework display….it was really nice!!!Since we are all in the field and they are playing the fireworks around us so its as though the fireworks was right above our heads…if u r unlucky u might get sum of the ashes falling on u…On a personal note,i felt alot of ashes falling on me last nite…i dont know whether i was just plain lucky or everybody felt it but are so used to all these so thats y never mention anything bout it…i was rather paranoid at first,scared that the fire will fall on me and burn my hair or clothes…haha…i know i was being such a chicken…but after that,after our neck starts to hurt….i really enjoyed watching the fireworks…haha…
After the firework display which felt like ages,after starting a camp fire,the music kicked in and the dj start doing his stuffs(no play play ok…the dj professional one-dj of mangalore….CRAP!!!!)all the indians started running to the dancefloor(a basketball court) and started jumping up and down…well,i would really want to join them dance the whole nite but the thing is…..they were playing hindi song the whole time!!!i did went into the dance floor a few times but it felt weird coz we all cant move like the indians do!!!!haha…i guess we all need more practice in shaking our bodies…hahah….must watch more hindi next time and try emulate them…
Man,they were all sweating and their sweaty bodies kept rubbing on me…just thank God i havent bath yet that time….
After coming back to my hostel…i realize that whole party thing was a real waste of time!!!And grace was happily eating buffet in a hotel that time with devi,jacintha etc…while we had to eat the awful mess food…:(…Never again will i go to this kind of functions….they didnt even give us yummy food ok???
I heard fr the locals that dewali is famous for its candies and lights…and they told us that we must try the candies during this time….So i guess ill try enjoy the indian sweets during dewali…want me to pack sum bac for u???
