Alin, alin, alin ang naiba?


isiping mabuti
isipin kung alin
isipin kung alin
ang naiba!



i guess they really have this thing about not smiling.
but trust me, they're all very warm, happy, effusive people. bengalis are more like filipinos than i ever imagined.
christmas day with more cousins -- my dad's (uncle avijit, in the blue striped polo, and tita tupur, in the red sari) and my own (tita tupur's daughters and uncle avijit's son, nony, in the peach turtleneck).
trekking to tita tupur's house made me realize what a huge, huge, HUGE city kolkata is. parang ang layo-layo na namin, may mga baka nang gumagala-gala sa kalsada, tapos kolkata pa rin? naknampucha.
i brought marlon with me, and they were absolutely delighted him because a) he looks indian, and b) he shoveled down at least three helpings of all the food they plunked down on the table (not very hard to do -- it was all great.) he hit it off very well with nony, too, when they got to talking about kung fu and WWF. boys -- they're the same the world over. *sigh*
