Diwali, also known as the 'Festival of Lights', is the biggest celebration in India. During the 5 days of celebration people light fireworks, share gifts, and eat sweets. I was told it is somewhat similar to what Christmas is in the U.S. and Europe.
The India club hosted a Diwali celebration this past Friday night. We had excellent Indian food, and Bollywood dancing. It was so much fun. Here are some pics.

I am happy that you took a break to enjoy yourself. Don't worry about getting A+, because good grades are overrated! (Remind me to NOT tell Di-di this when he is in school, because he has to get all A+s! :)
I love getting all of this cultural education through your blog!! J is right - an A+ vs. an A? Overrated! Of course, if it were me I'd be obsessing over it too. :-)
