Yesterday I wasn't able to go to sleep for a pretty long time. My entire body started itching for some reason. Usually I'm pretty good with controlling my urge to scratch but yesterday I just couldn't. I don't know if it's my bed, or some food, or my clothes but I have been having small rashes come up on my body. Yesterday was the worse tho. I didn't have any rash initially but with the amount of scratching, it looked like I had love bites on either side of my neck.
Anyways, today is the Bhau Bheej Day of Diwali, aka the brother-sister day. (In my family) The sister performs a small aarti for her brother which includes applying a small tika and dried rice on the brother's forehead followed by giving a small sweet to eat and circling the aarti plate. Both entities are supposed to give gifts to each other however both Alex and I are lazy asses and neither of us got one.
After the Aarti, mom, dad and I got ready to go to another town for a lunch party with some cousins and their families. It took us about an hour and 15 mins to reach the place. I met with everyone, including Amanda and ua three cousins went inside to chill. We were at our relatives' house by the way. We went for lunch a little later. This family is the same one at whose party I chugged the whole drink and got tipsy for the first time.
So yeah, there was alcohol this time as well. I took a sip of Amanda's vodka and tonic water with lime and I liked it so I got one made for my self as well. I was hesitant at first because of my parents so I went to ask permission. Both mom and dad gave me the looks but my drink was ready by that time so I took it and went back in. See, I know that I'm not an alcoholic so I think it should be fine if I drink occasionally.
The elders made a sudden plan of going for a 2 day trip. My parents decided not to go because dad is going to Aunt P's place to celebrate their pending Bhau Bheej. Alex's exams will also start and mom prefers not going anywhere during our exam period.
At around 2:30PM, we went out to a Chinese restaurant and had some good Chinese food. I thought I won't eat much because I was still full with what I ate yesterday but when I saw some prawn dishes, you bet I had a bite of all the dishes that were ordered.
On our way back home, we visited a mall that came in the way. We went to Big Bazaar for shopping and I didn't expect their collection to be this good! I bought myself 3 pair of shorts (mostly for home wear), a top, a pair of wide legged orange pants (now I'll have to look for a top to wear with it) and a nice black jacket. I had a great shopping experience so I'm happyyyy!
We came back home after that and I started Round 2 of my WhatsApp interactions. Fuck it's been so long I don't know if I'm doing a good job or not.
I'm afraid I might just getting tired of talking to people again.🙈
