My cousin Diveena in DC is planning on coming to visit my family in Miami with her husband to celebrate Diwali. Little does she know, but my parents don't celebrate anything anymore. Not because they don't want to, they just don't have the time.
With my cousin coming down, she plans on showing us a proper Diwali celebration. It will be my first and most likely my last.
There will be all sorts of yummies and fireworks, and she mentioned stuff about lights hung around the house. I don't know how that will work though, since Florida doesn't allow fireworks and I doubt my parents are going to put up lights on the house for just one day.
I've been looking at airfare to get home and OMG! Why is it so expensive?
Normally I would use studentuniverse.com and capitalize on my .fsu.edu account, but even they were pricey. After some quick googling (p.s. I love how that has become an acceptable verb!) I found another student website (statravel.com) that offered a cheaper flight. So check it out for future travels.
All in all, I am looking forward to October.
While Diwali is popularly known as the "festival of lights", the most significant spiritual meaning is "the awareness of the inner light".- courtesy of Wiki.
