I Know I haven't blogged in a long time. But of the little computer time I get I always always forget to blog. Lots has been happening in my life recently. My house had become into a sort of cow shelter last week. On Wednesday a cow came onto my verandah to protect itself from the rain and we had a hard time shooing it of. On Thursday a cow gave birth to a calf in my garden. No, we don't keep cows..it's just that our gate is usually open and I have a pretty large garden for Mumbai standards that the cow just came in to give birth to her calf. I missed the calf birth but I saw the proceedings from the time the calf was yet covered with blood. The tiny calf started walking within half an hour of birth..I saw the blood and I don't know what else filled bag burst and the calf having it's mother's milk. it was so frail and weak before having the milk but after having it the calf was full of energy and was running all around. Luckily some servants in the neighbouring building owned cows in their villages so they told us what to do and what to feed. Finally after taking care of the cow and it's child for a couple of hours the owner came and took them away. it was sad to let them go but then it was a different experience. it's supposed to be very auspicious if a cow gives birth to a calf in your premises according to hindu Mythology and tradition. Then on Friday two cows came onto our verandah to protect themselves from the rain. And all these have been different cows. Luckily there weren't anymore after that!
I've put up my own clique known as the "Proud 2B Indian" clique viewable at http://www.freewebs.com/proudindian. It's a nice idea I feel but I don't know if I'll be able to manage it once college starts. Atleast lets see for the time being how it goes. it's just been 3 days since the clique's up and I've already got 22 members from all over the world! Check it out yourself and join it if you're Indian!
Ciao for now..I might get back to writing about the Canadian bit of my holiday but I don't know when !
Love and Luck
