At around 12:00 am, I received a call from a friend of mine, Ang. He asked me to help him buy a piece of cake from the nearest Starbucks Coffee. Tiana (my pal) and I got ready and off we go (Tense).

We bought some cakes, ice cream and also a Starbucks tumbler as a present for the birthday girl!

After a hot, comfy bath, I dressed up and hurried downstairs to join my Indian batch-mates for a Pongal celebration.

According to Hindus, Pongal is a harvest festival, a traditional occasion for giving thanks to nature, for celebrating the life cycles that give us grain.

This festival has its own uniqueness where it's celebrated by boiling rice and other cereals, sugar-cane, and turmeric altogether with milk.
