Holi is a festival for which I wait for the whole year. it's indeed, a great pleasure to sprinkle coloured water on those whom you love and respect. This year's Holi was also a memorable occasion. Early in the morning, boys of the colony gathered at different spots and would not let any passer-by go scot free. Some friends came from other colonies too and we enjoyed colouring one another's face. We returned to our places at about 2 o'clock in the afternoon. I had to spend a long time in the bathroom getting rid of the colours on the face and hands. Bath over and mother served the delicious food made specially to celebrate Holi. After a nap, all members of my family dressed up for an outing. We went to the houses of our friends giving them Holi gifts. We came back home in a very happy frame of mind.
