The end. Now I spent all yesterday and part of today shortening/editing/uploading these videos so I better be getting some appreciation.
^ oh danny bhai.. you’re so NAIVE!
You think I would’ve gone to Bhangra Blowout and made just ONE video? Are you kidding me? I had a hard time trying to manage the amount of space left on my camera because I wanted to make a video of absolutely EVERYTHING!
P.S. A funny thought just came to my mind. I should’ve made a video of my milkshake hit-and-run and uploaded that on Youtube. :]
danial shah - well ofcourse you do, because Maddy and you were gossiping about me at Muzna Baji’s house while you were out on your smoking break. Now don’t look at me like that, mister!
Yea and they also had the best outfits, too. :k: Their team was especially well-synchronized.
Oh so something neat I noticed at this show:** They make these new dhols that can now hook up to speakers, kinda like guitars that hook up to amps. So they beat on it and the sound goes directly to the speakers. =] Ahhhmazing.**
toun pehlay hi bahanay banan laggi sain, mein bimaar haan, mera seend wagh rya way, mein schoolay na kamm karna You didnt even know what this event was till you saw phatima thread :kohati chappal:
5abi - Right, the after party. Get a good ol’ stabbing from a drunk Indian. I don’t think so.
hahah and yea USC was pretty good I liked their shiny outfits but I noticed that all the girls are super-skinny like malnutritioned, they look like they just got out of the slums of India. hahahhaa jk…oh and I used two cameras because I wanted to take lots of pics and make several videos…I took the Sony W100 and my sister’s old Kodak (can’t remember what model it is).
chorni - don’t listen to 5abi he’s just pushing you to go because he couldn’t ever go himself.
Now afterparty is where the audience members get down and boogie :P Too bad you and your sis are only 16 and couldnt go, they check IDs at front door LMAO!
