Funtimes part Deux!

When I was in Elementary (in Wales) we would have these sleep overs, and for some reason we would always play this concoction game. One person had to go in a room and close their eyes, while everyone else would concoct this "drink" that the other person would then have to drink. I use the word drink losely because it usually had to be eaten w/ a spoon. Other than being a random anecdote, this story does have a point. I was looking through my pictures this morning and I realised that there were some that I wanted to post but they're all kind of random. So this post is like the game I used to play as a child, a random concoction, only you don't have to eat it!
The pictures range from my last good bye from my team mate and friend, Julie, to a random shot of my mom and I at the rock garden to some ridiculoud pictures of me in my new sari. Saris are more formal outfits that women here wear to parties and weddings. Up until now I haven't bought one, but I wanted one before I left. Well if anyone has ever seen a sari or even tried to wear one, you will know that there is quite an art to tying a sari. I have not quite mastered this art, and so my sari looks more like a random assortment of toga cloth. My roomie April has an amazing camera that she loves to take pictures with, so we did a little photo shoot, unfortunately I couldn't take it seriously enough to get a decent shot to show you what a sari is supposed to look like. Here are a few... excuse the facial expressions and poorly assembled cloth- saris really are beautiful when tied correctly! My roomies also had photo shoots, but for some reason those pictures aren't uploading...there's a surprise! Their saris actually look like they're supposed to! My computer is going in to have some servicing because it's broken, so I won't be updating much for a little while. My momma goes home on Tuesday!!! SAD :(
