Unexplored Land

"The International Luncheon," took place on April 15, in Westchester Community College. The event had a capacity for 50 people, but many students came late to the event - including myself. One hour was not enough to talk about India; as India is a magnificent, lovely and fascinating country that awaits to be explored by adventurous people.
Saris - a garment consisting of a length of cotton or silk elaborately draped around the body.




Komala Kotramada Bheemaiah, a native from India,described the contrast of her country. She talked about India's history, languages and religions (to name a few). At the moment, I entered the room I was absorbed by the relaxing and mystical Indian music. Since, I arrived late, I was forced to stand during the exposition of India. Kotramada Bheemaiah,wearing a blue and orange sari, described and demonstrated all the various ways to wrap a sari.

The religions in India are:
  • Hindus
  • Muslim
  • Christians
  • Sikhs
  • Buddhist
  • Jains
After, the exposition to India, we had the privilege of trying tasteful Indian food. The various dishes served, such as: coconut rice, shrimp curry, naan, chicken tikka masala, lamb bryani and  mint sauce represented the northern regions of India.

I have been learning the other uses corn offers in many products.

I'm not a Social Media Freak

Every day we watch individuals with their smartphones, tables, or laptops. The advantage of those devices is their small size and light weight. We carry our smartphones in our packets.
