christmas and new year ----- a combo bonanza

hola ( hello)
well , I must that say that i am finally getting the hang of  sassy,Spanish . 
hope you enjoyed Christmas as much as I did ...............
The spirit this year was rather sombre and quiet , owing to terror attacks . 
Of course , our college didn't succumb to  all that and we had wonderful Christmas party and even color codes( red , green , blue , white on different days and even Santa caps!!!!!!!) , All the cakes were gone before the first bites and the best part was when all of us exchanged gifts, I got a wine cup shaped candle . It looks really attractive, grand from far . Since this is the first time I am studying in a Christian institution the whole affair excited me .... 
The year is   drawing to  a close ... It's been quite a year with so many up's and down's . The economy and the recession constitutes  the low part of it and also  the 
Mumbai attacks   , the kandhamal attacks which questioned our secularism  .

The golden stars are the Nuclear deal with USA getting through . India's first unmanned space mission to the moon , some wonderful  movies like Indiana Jones and the kingdom of crystal skull  , iron man , chronicles of Narnia -prince Caspian , 10,000 BC, quantum of solace , 10,000 BC , 27 dresses etc .. 
 Overall it's been a fairly good year keeping people on their toes 24*7.

I really wanted to write about the Da Vinci code that i happened to read recently . The book is definitely the master of all thrillers , one that you hard to put down , atleast i couldn't it !!!!! Some parts , were intriguing but bought had  " facts" that i found impossible to believe . I sat back and wondered how the Harry potter series ever outsold this book . 

so , that's it this time ..... 
WISH YOU A WONDERFUL AND A VERY PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR !!!!!!!
