HOLI!!!

Well, my last weekend in Baroda was super exciting. First, we threw The Biggest Greatest Party Eva in the History of the World. That was the official title. We rented out a farmhouse that had a pool! Needless to say, I was thrown into the pool. Many crazy things went on that night: fireworks, Bosses strangling restaurant owners, broken teeth, and a possible leg amputation. No, I'm not joking. Cameras and lives were ruined that night. Very dramatic.

This past weekend was also the festival of Holi! It's only the best festival in India! I have been looking forward to it ever since I last left India. It's a day when everyone has these brilliantly colored powders and you just stuff them in each others' hair and faces. In the end, you look like a clown gone wrong. It's so much fun! We were all a bit subdued from the party the night before, but we took a nice walk through the park and amassed a huge crowd of Indians watching the crazy foreigners trying to celebrate Holi. We literally had about 40 Indians following us through the park. We all looked terrible, but we had fun, so it was cool.

It was sad to leave Baroda. I was very sad the night before I left. We all had dinner together and then went to Piyush's for chai and general hanging out. I will miss our random nights of just hanging out... But yes, that last weekend was a great way to end my time in Baroda. Bye Baroda! Thanks for all the great times!
