Holi hai!

March 4th was a beautiful day with a clear sky and the sun shining bright! All the Baskin Tp ppl had gathered at the volley ball ground in East remote here on campus. It was my first Holi ever. Had a great time splashing colors on my friends, running and chasing.

Creating horrible colors using sand and grass when we actually ran outta colors and singing Amitab's 'Rang bharsae bhigae chunarivali, rang bharse' song was real fun! :D The guys then played volley ball - well, I was umpiring u know.. :D he he.. All of us then headed to Amyn's place and had a dance bash! Stained his poor clean carpets and danced danced until we dropped! Holi is real fun, we gotta popularize it more in TN - our ppl will have fun too.. Just like Nayagan's - 'Andhi mazhai megam' song.

For those interested, this link gives a good insight into the significance and tradition of the Holi festival: Holi

This is a nice video too. Chk it out:

And reg the Blog you write very well. But i think the Holi was written in a hurry or it was just like a information. To become a good write, you should also wirte things which will make reader feel as if he played holi. Imagine the previous blog (long time) would have made one feel, to extent that I warned you to be careful when you are near waters. Means it brought the picture in front of the eye, though it was short. Ofcourse, the Topic also adds to the content by itself.

So keep writing..

Best
