Gifts, Awards and Event

I received a pack during Xmas/New Year. It was from Yoon See of Greener Pastures. She is one of my oldest friends in bloggyland. She's a genuine and a loving artist from Malaysia. She's one of my loyal readers who inspires me everytime she leaves a comment or message. Her words have always made me to strive to do better. I was extremely excited... Have a look at her sweet and cute gifts which added to the festive mood.





In came another surprise with The Versatile Blogger Awards from Nisha of Random Thoughts and Krishnapriya of Scribbling Pad. Both are my new found friends, the former being one of my bosom buddy's sister. Talented and promising writers! Thank you very much Nisha and Krishna:)



Last Friday was the Federation of Kerala College Alumni's(FECKA) Christmas and New Year Celebration. It was a dazzling night with some cooking competition and melodious & thumping numbers. Thanks to ARROWS band for the memorable night. The band consists of Arun, Roshan, Williams and Sudarshan of  the Star Singer (2007). Mrs. Lakshmi Nair, Magic Oven fame, was the chief guest.



















All together it was a gala night. Thanks to FECKA!
