Yeah, it's another Diwali coming around.

For those who don't know what it is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diwali

Anyone have anything special planned? Fireworks? Parties? Due to our rather tough schedules, we had a party of our own on Sunday instead of today, but it was still worth it.

I'm gonna sit at home, I'll see all the fireworks from my house anyway.

Sadly, nothing this year. I always tell myself I'm going to make it up to Devon Avenue to see if there are any goings-on, but this year I have too much going on. Hope it was a good party!

Nothing going on around here. This was one of my favourite times of year, though - when I was still living in Leicester.

There's a great display just across the street, so I can watch it from warm inside my bedroom! Might go outside to one tomorrow.

Happy Diwali, my fellow NS Brownies.

I'm kicking back with the family after a long work/class day.

I'm going to drink ... heavily. This is also how I intend to celebrate Halloween, Election Day and October 28th (aka, the day Nuclear Missiles were removed from Cuba, marking the end of the Cuban Missile Crisis).
