Twas the Night before Diwali,
And all through the house,
Were people bursting crackers,
While I hid like a mouse.
Just a couple random pics from around Udupi the day before Diwali. Apparently today’s called “Choti Diwali” or “Mini Diwali“.
Btw…
Does this Indian outfit make me look fat ?
Had to do a bit of shopping to find one for the Diwali Celebrations tomorrow. Eesh I suck at finding a decent Indian outfit.
A pal was leaving Manipal tonight so we figured it’d be fun/nice to have a sort of Mini-Diwali Celebration for her before she left.
Awww and it was all my plan too. Arnt I, like, the nicest fella ever ? 
Gotta love those sparkles btw !
Haha look at me coming up with the clever titles. Went all the way to Mangalore to watch a Hindi movie called “Wake Up Sid” yesterday, with a buncha friends.
The movie was actually pretty decent. Lots of emotional moments though. And they never randomly broke into synchronized dance ! Quite enjoyed it, which really surprises/worries me.
And with that, this fulfills my One-Hindi-Movie-a-Year Quota.
Yesterday was a Fun, Interesting day. One of my bestest pal’s Yashaswi was getting Engaged and she was pretty sure I’d totally forget about the event 
But HA ! I didnt. I made it there right on time lol. Managed to take a couple pictures too. I wasnt sure what was/wasnt allowed and I didnt want to offend anyone by standing up and taking pictures randomly lol. Can you tell this was my first Indian Engagement that I attended ? Hehe.

Ah nothing like ending a tiring busy day with coffee and hanging with homieessss. After my crazy morning at the Kuwait Towers and Sharq mall, I was pooped. Luckily my ol’pal Sharad called me up later in the evening asking if I wanted to catch a cup of coffee. Yes please !
Ah Krispy Kreme. I think I love you.
We went to the Marina Mall Krispy Kreme outlet so we had a really nice view of the port while we recharged the ol’ batteries with some caffeine. I was reaaaally tempted to pick up some more donuts but managed to not do that. Guess I still have some will power after all heh.
During our caffene session, another ol’pal of mine, Malak called up asking us what we were up to. Why nothing at all ! So we figured we’d head on over to a near by Shesha cafe (literally called the Shesha Cafe) to meetup and generally waste time.
Outside Marina Mall :
Random shot of Salmiya in action :
Near the Shesha Cafe :
We were going to check out this place called “7 Bars” but unfortch it was way too full at the time.
Also had some NOICE Harleys parked outside. This one in particular caught my attention.
Dayum I need to get me a ride in Kuwait while I’m here lol.
There a quite a few Shesha Cafes on that stretch of road. Some quite fancy lookin’.
Eventually we ended up at the Shesha Cafe though.
Pretty aite place. I personally dont do Shesha but it seemed like a nice place to chill out.
We three ended up talking so much (catching up after like 5 years) that before we knew it, it was 1am. Eesh.
Great way to spend an evening after a tiring day.
Well yesterday turned out to be a fun Friday evening. Tommy‘s Birthday was coming up (its actually today, Happy Birthday Tommy!), and we figured we’d suprise him with some cake. With the limited choices that are available in Manipal, we picked up one from Cafe Coffee Day.
Babz and I also picked up some samosas while we were there, but we haz no pictures of the mosas 
Yesterday was the annual Flava Food Fest over here in Manipal. The whole shindig is pretty cool, with different stalls offering different food from all over India.
Yesterday was a pretty rawkin’ Sunday. Me and the guys heading out to Mangalore to check out the new Fast and the Furious 4 Movie.
Woo !
Lifestyles of the Cj and the Famous. Clinton Jeff tries to confuzzle you with his mind tricks, while appearing cool and in control of the situation.
