My First Halloween

Life is about experiencing different cultures and traditions. After trying out rock climbing, fishing, golf, and shooting real guns, Halloween was next. I have been in US for already 3 years and the time had come for me to attend Jason's 4th Annual Halloween Party at his place. Ok - I thought of options - gangster, Rick James, evil Jason or a hippie. Hippie somehow sounded a little different and much entertaining to me. So here I am.


With Elvis Presley.



Evil Jason - IT/satan specialist.



Aias was the local Gangster while Kate was a gypsy

New York City with Sumit

One way or another, I always found an excuse going to New York City. Last time I made a promise to myself that this will not happen again on a regular basis but deep down my heart, I knew that I might not keep it. Even after doing this kind of 100 miles travel in a bad weather with heavy rain, we were there again but this time with new faces and new motivation. Sumit made plans on staying back at my crib after his business trip to NYC. So I showed him the city that never sleeps.

Paintball? Really?

..was what I kept on telling myself if this sport is worth risking whips and blisters. We were eleven at HogansAlley celebrating Aias's birthday.



What is the strategy?

Our carefully engineered plan designed for taking the opponents out took a dip when I was first shot thrice in the head by Aias. Look below where he sneaks without my knowledge.

Done doing mix n match with teams as well as fields, everyone is tired.



Getting drinks and discussing moments in the game.

Aias turned 24 and I turned black n blue. Not really.
