^^^ is a jadya baje. Ever fell into a superstitious trap? Last month one of my fren bought an apt. I don't know how many families have lived there, it certainly doesn't look new. His parents suggested, "Puja lagaunu parcha". Did u know that, doing all those puja brings good luck to the apt? Get your fat ass off the couch and get a job, better lucks will come your way. Also careful with the dhoops, u don't want the smoke alarm going off yet again. I remember the time my aunt applied for visa, her mom had done a big puja in Mankamana Temple, poor woman climbed all the way. This was before the days ofcable cars. Of course her visa was rejected. In fall, her college gave her tuition reimbursement and she applied again for visa and got it. Next time instead of spending time doing puja, spend it writing a worthwhile essay, belive me it works ALWAYS. I wish everyday was Dashain, don't care much for anything, the dakshina sure comes in handy ;)
