Blogging: a luxury

Hi all,
I am writing my first official blog on blogosphere and I am feeling as if suddenly a huge medium is opened in front of me. I mean,blogs have been around for quite some time,but its a feeling of discovering something new that every first timer would experience.
It was the last day of the Ganesha festival in Mumbai today.As I write this,I can hear firecrackers bursting nearby where the last of the idols would be immersed for this year. We also keep the idol of Ganpati at home and immerse it after a day. This year Dad made the idol at home which was the most beautiful part of the festival for me. Although it wasn't the latest eco-friendly idol,i hope we will make it there next year. He made it with PoP,and it came out beautifully. We painted it with water colors and when it was all done,we felt as though the idol was family. You might think I am getting too emotional,but that's how it was. Next year I am planning to attend one of those workshops ,where they teach you to make eco-friendly ones at home.
