Festivals

WOW!!!!!! Wht a spectacular month and half event. 3 festivals coming in tow one after the other....with 2 festivals i.e. Ganesh festival and Ramzan starting on the same day. That is truly a auspicious day. Bcoz this is the first time it happened in 30 yrs, and it was a joy to me and my frds bcoz we have worked hard to make the ganesh festival going in our colony and this time v made it a grand success. V did it in a splendid style and had fun every moment...even thou u must not c the managing the finance side....(BIG HEADACHE). But it was worth it...all it was for the sake of the festival. V even conducted "OOTI" like the one which ppl do for janmastami...ppl of all ages in the colony have participated in it....Last but not the least it was fun and througly enjoyed it.......and during the last 2 days of the pandal in our colony ...i was busy with my org. work where v were had a signature campaign and sanitation drive near Imax and Eat street and N.B.T.Nagar (Banjara Hills) in collaboration with a reputed IT company. It was hectic travelling and having to coordinate one side and take responsibility on the other side....but my frds understood that i was been sandwich in between...so they let me take my colony work as a priority rather than the org work as there where many ppl present.....i real thank them for they understanding...... After the immersion...now it was time for haleem.....i waited to eat it for 9 days.....as i was organizing the ganesh festival, i did not eat any non-veg food that time....after that i indulge myself in eating haleem and i enjoyed it.

Now as Ramzan has come to a end..i was thinking,wht festival wud come next and then Navaratri has come just within a week of Ramzan. I used to go to Garba when my frds used to stay here...but as they moved on...i did not go for the past 2 yrs....this year one of our org frd has invited us to the puja..and cultural activites which takes place in her club...This is the first time i had ever went to a Bengali Samiti. I must say..i have througly enjoyed it with my other frds...had a lot of fun time. At the same time we were there so that we can have some publicity

for the org. and have some donations..which v have collected and it wud be used for the better development of the kids. I was amazed by the way they were doing the puja....and was in total awe for it.....later there was dance at the end of the puja...something like the "teen maar"..i was hoping some of my frdss wud come by then..so that v cud also join in the dance....but it did not happen.....better luck next time. I was a roller coaster ride of 1 1/2 mnts.....now Diwali is coming up.....I am looking forward for it....so that v can enjoy a with crackers.......
