Friday was actually better than I thought it would be. Of course, mom stayed home bcuz she wants to finish off a lot of the things for the arangetram on Fridays, so she works 10 hours a day (or so she says... :) ). Anyways, as always, I had to practice dance in front of her, and for some reason, I did a lot better than I thought I would...it being a Friday and all. Even my thillana was a lot better than I expected. So, all in all, my mom was happy, therefore, I was too.
Saturday was really hectic. Turns out that I didn't have to go to Maya Aunty's house anyways, so I was happy. But I had to go to Nagesh Uncle's house for something that I can't say until after the arangetram. So, Manoj and I went there and we had a complete blast. Somehow, I managed to mess up Nagesh Uncle's computer program. Trust me, I don't even know how as of yet. I was editing some stuff, and all of a sudden the comp screen just does something wierd and when it comes back to normal, BAM!!! I can't see the some of the computer program. So, I called Nagesh Uncle and he went up to see what he could do. Turns out that all he had to do was save the thing, then restart his computer...it worked then. Now, I'm kinda his assistant in the sense that he sent me stuff to do and send to him over the week...as soon as I finish. Hope i get paid...j/k. Nagesh Uncle was the videographer for Prashanti's arangetram, so he had to go there 2.5 hours early. Obviously, we went with him as my parents were already there and were probably waiting for us. So, on the way to CCA, Nagesh uncle tells me that I can put down the visor, and I was like, yea, whatever. So, when I was about to pull it down I realized that there was no visor. Apparently, his cuzin had pulled it off by accident...lol. Then, we realized that the packet of cassettes that he had bought hadn't been open, so we opened it...with a pen. the dumb thing blasted all over my shirt becuz the ball of it popped off...lol
We finally reached CCA and i met my mom at the lobby...personally, I thought the lobby was too crowded becuz they had tons of stuff there. But hey, it still looked good. I went backstage to find Prashanti while my parents brought me her present and saw her with Urvi aunty and THuls. Almost all her makeup was on and, personally, I thought she looked like a ghost...that's how much foundation she had on. SCARY!!! Well, of course, Thuls, Prash, and I chatted while she dressed up(here's a pic)
...and then we watched her (now she's all dressed up :) )
. I felt so bad tho, becuz during the whole performace we were criticizing her. Like, she needed to keep her elbows up and when leaning toward the side, she would also lean forward. Also, she needed to open her alapadma (a hand gesture). Yeah, I did it again. Whatever. Anyways, she still did good. At the end of may (when I last saw her) she would forget the dances that she was supposed to be doing for her aragetram that we learned in the group class, which was a bad idea. Anyways, she didn't do very badly. One thing that was there was that they took off 3 stanzas of 'Shankara Sree Giri', which is one of my dances...wierd! Then we went to India Gate...and I decided to be a pig (not surprising, huh?) and ate 2 nan and some seasoned fried rice!Today was just plain old boring. All I did was dance...altho I got up at only 11:00. Awesome stuff. Yeah, then we went shopping. I got a pair of shoes and so did my dad and my bro. I also got a new watch and I'm so glad my dad's letting me buy a digi camera. Yay!!!! Then we had food (My bro and I had Panda Express while our parents had from Cajun Grill). I prolly gained like 3 pounds. Then we went to big lots and bought some school stuff for me and some other dance stuff.
Yeah, so now I gotta go. This as long as I can write since my fingers ache from trying to get my 'P' button to work...and also the backspace and the home button...stupid laptop.

well, she's pretty fair...so I wouldn't really expect a lot more makeup. Plus the lighting was bad in the makeup room...you'll see when u come.
I'm so sure I'll need a lot more makeup. I'm a black beauty. LOL
