'Holi'day

Holi is here and along with the colors and fun it has brought a holiday along :)
Having a holiday for Holi is quite common in schools and colleges but once we start working, we begin to wonder for what festivals we get a holiday and for what we don't. Ok, not all may be wondering, but as this is still my 1st year into the corporate world, I was.

Though I have stopped playing holi a few years ago for no specific reason I can think of, I still like to sit in a corner and watch people playing with the colors.

When I was a kid, all of us used to wait eagerly for this festival. As Holi is a holiday, in school the festival was celebrated a day earlier. Although playing with colors is restricted in school, after the school time a number of kids play and as it was past the school hours the teachers dint mind much.
I distinctly remember, my cousins used to come to my home and wake me up and then after applying the colors onto our faces we used to run around and wake up others as well. Even though we ran out of colors, we used to mix the little bit of colors left with us into buckets of water and then throw those water at each other.

Childhood is so much fun! All of our childhood, we want to get older and once we grow up and are out of colleges, we want to go back to our childhood days. Such is the irony of life! :(

P.S: This is my 25th post on my blog!! I have been reading a lot of blogs these days and with each day passing I have started loving the “blog samaj” more and more. So I hereby make a resolution that I will blog more frequently be it on sports, politics, studies, work or nothing. If I feel it I am gonna write it. And I hope that if I stick to this resolution I am going to cross the two digit figure soon. So till the time I write my new post, enjoy!! And a Happy Holi!!!
