And like always sarees continue to find a place in the season’s festive fashion. Custom-made sarees for little girls are easily available. These sets usually come with a blouse, petticoat and saree. The pleats are pre-made and can be draped within minutes with the least effort. The waist of the saree has a drawstring band that keeps the attire intact as the

our move on someone. We walked up to a young man that looked to be in high school and began our conversation. We started off by just introducing ourselves and telling him that we were working on an assignment and just wanted to get to know him a little bit better. The conversation actually flowed really well and we had a lot in common like our love for sports and technology. His name is Dilan Patel and he’s a junior at Siloam High. You can probably tell by the last name that Dilan is Indian. I knew

Living, Loving, and Learning: Buscaglia Reflection While reading Leo Buscaglia's book, Living, Loving & Learning, I was able to reflect back on some of the experiences I have had in my life that have helped to make me the person I am today, and I was able to look into the future at what I would like to become. I was able to see how well I know myself and what I have to offer others. I was able to see the things I don't like about myself and determine some of the ways I can make myself

The thought of regionals and state were starting to come up a little more this late in the year. I knew that I would have to wrestle Roy again, one way or another. Regionals came up before I knew it and I won my first and second matches easily with pins, but I knew my third wouldn't be so easy. Sure enough, I checked
