Diwali Rangoli Patterns

Diwali Festival

Diwali is the festival of light in India,

On the first day of Diwali people make Rangoli patterns; Rangoli is a pattern to welcome people into their home.

On the second day of Diwali, people tell stories about Diwali like when Ram rescued Sita, people enjoy learning about Diwali.

On the third day of Diwali people set off sparkly fireworks at night they are extreme fun for many Indians

On the fourth day of Diwali it is New Year’s Day people celebrate by making yummy sweets and food.

On the last day of Diwali it is Brothers and Sisters Day when brothers buy sisters gifts and sisters cook for brothers.

Happy Diwali!

Shopping Nightmare

 

I will never forget the time my dad publicly humiliated me on the ninth of October because playing a prank and said “Your wardrobe looks a little shabby”. So he drove us to Westfield. As soon we got there he dragged me to ‘Pink Girls’ which I thought said ‘Punk Girls’

 

I was horrified by the pink! Dad said “How about this number?” It was a pink dress with white polka dots. I pointed out “Dad I am eight not three!” He didn’t care he bought it and made me put it on. Everyone Laughed at me.

 

I vowed never to wear it. And it so wasn’t fair because Jazz got this totally cool outfit that made him look kigr a celebrity, Jazz loved his outfit but I hated mine I just have one thing to say

 

Dad is a nutcase when it comes to clothes.

After that Horrendous experience Dad took us to Farmers before he could he could make me a 1950’s girl with some ugly dresses we dragged dad to the lollies. I chose a mini suitcase with those sherbet bracelets some sherbet balls and very pink sherbet lipstick. Strangely something drew me to buy Peztm 

 

Shortly Dad tried to embarrass me again with a white Easter dress with pantyhose! The shop Divas was not my idea of fun Luckily Jazz came to my rescue and dad got me black trendy jeans instead.
