sexiest professions

me and gunjan were watching nine today show when they had a list of the sexiest professions - models, firefighters, yada yada yada.... the old shallow mentality of the ever-so-predictable human mind! rise above the stereo prototypes and THINK - you WILL find the following professions irresistable -

5. electricty meter readers
4. woolworths night shelvers
3. grass mowers (not lawn, but the one alongside the road)- especially singaporean indians :D
2. PhD students - WE ROCK !!!!!
1. call center workers - BEAT THAT, models ;-)

Season of festivals

The season of festivals started with Navratri, Halloween and then Diwali next week and of course thanksgiving and christmas. Its interesting that all of these festivals line up around the same time along with Day of the dead and some of the others.
Maya and I dressed up for Navratri and went for Dandiya one day. It was hosted by the Gujarati samaj. Maya brought a friend of hers. It was loads of fun. Anjali stayed back with Ravi. Maybe she will be able to join us next year.

Halloween was great we had been working on the costumes for two weeks. Anjali was wearing one of Maya's hand me downs from two years back. A ladybug and Maya was Princess Mononoke (a kids anime from Miyazaki of the Spirited Away fame).

Ravi made the mask out of papier mache it. Came out really neat and some friends helped out with the accessories.

There are some more pictures in this album.

We are getting ready for Diwali this week. Cleaned up some of the drawers in the kitchen. Ordered some utensils online and a friend is hosting a Diwali party.
