A few people having been asking my about my trip and thank you all so much for your concern. My trip went good, thank good. I ended up going to India because my grandmother got sick and we thought she might require surgery. Because of our family bussiness, it wasn't possible for either of my parents to go and since my younger brother is only 16, that left only me. I somehow managed to beg and plead my professors into letting me skip class for a week and a half without kicking me out and off I went to India. Thank god my grandmother ended up not requring surgery but I'm so happy that I went anyways. I hadn't been to India since I was 10 and this trip helped me really connect to India and fall in love with it again (that's sounds really corny, lol).
Concidently the week I ended up being in India totally free was also the week my cousin (mom's brothers daugther) was getting married. When we'd realized in September, when the wedding was scheduled, that no one was going to be able to make it, my whole family wa bumed. So since I was free, I got to go to the wedding and I am so happy that I did. I know that I would have really regretted it if I hadn't been able to go. Indian weddings are amazing and are like a week long and I don't think we all slept the whole week before the wedding.
Because she was the first grandchild in our family to get married, my whole family was there. All the cousins, aunts, uncles and grandparents we present and I got to meet them all in one place. I wouldn't have been able to see them all anytime soon otherwise because my family is pretty spread out over the world.

Now blog news- I'm in the process of putting together a character list for myself because I keep having to go back and look, lol. I was wondering if you all wanted me to post it when I'm done? I could update it every few weeks and post it again. I don't know if that would help you all understand the story better. Either way let me know.
