Plane to India..!

It’s been so long since I’ve ever posted on here. I almost forgot about this blog, but someone posted a comment on my post about arranged vs love marriage and that brought me back on here. Well hopefully people still read this once in a while..!

Now where should I start.. so many things have happened since I last posted on here..! well, I guess I can talk about my recent visit to India. Yes.. I was in Punjab this February and the first two weeks of March.

Let’s talk about the Plane to India first.. shall we..? It was a funny flight home. Before I left, a close friend decided to give me a huge/heavy gold ‘kara’ to take with me and give to his family. I had to wear it just so that it was secure. Sitting in the flight with me was this old Punjabi couple. Amongst other things.. the old lady also asked me if I was married yet. I answered the question reluctantly coz I was worried that she might start suggesting ‘rishtas’ for me or something. Luckily she didn’t. Then the old gentleman started his investigation. He couldn’t believe that I wasn’t married. I asked why he was so sure that I WAS married.. to which he answered that looking at the gold ‘kara’ I was wearing.. it looked like I was married. I don’t know how I held my laugh..! I know people use the rings as an indication of a person’s being married or not, but never heard of this ‘kara’ business before.

Well, that’s it for today. If I can manage to write more anytime soon, you might get to hear more stories like that..! till then.. take care. Bye
