254. Happy Deepavali
Deepavali is a festival where people from all age groups participate. They give expression to their happiness by lighting earthen 'diyas' (lamps), decorating the houses, bursting firecrackers and inviting near and dear ones to their households for partaking in a sumptuous feast. The lighting of lamps is a way of paying obeisance to god for attainment of health, wealth, knowledge, peace, valor and fame. For more details on this festival, you can check out Festival of Malaysia.
Was suppose to go over to Pragas' place for lunch. Was really looking forward to this. His family has the biggest feast I know. :) The food has always been great and I reckon this year is no different. But alas, there's a really bad jam on the bridge. We didn't give up and tried to use the ferry. It was also packed! Looks like i'm not fated to pig out today. Well, as consolation, we will go for lunch with Chuwy and family and also Belle and her mom. The food was alright.
Decided to wash my car and do some misc DIY stuff since my afternoon is clear. Really not looking forward to work tomorrow.
