It’s Time to Celebrate!

The end of classes on campus and the completion of poster session, and less than 48 hours for departure.  All means only one thing – CELEBRATION TIME!  We got together at Dr. Khandke’s place for dinner and relaxing evening after two long weeks of pulling things together - completing and presenting the GIS project, completion of a big term paper, several assignments, blog entries, and final exams.  Now there is less than 48 hours to leave.  Every one is now accustomed to some of the Indian traditions already, like welcoming or honoring guests with a tilaka, the red dot on the forehead.
Tonight, is the night to celebrate and put behind all the hard work of the past few weeks (of course, with the exception of a final exam tomorrow!).  Now, get ready to depart.  The cool breeze of the arctic that is sweeping through the Upstate will be a distant memory soon and “heat and the humidity” will be our best friend.  Now, I don’t have to say much about heat and the humidity, do I?
