Starry Night

You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep...
I'd just stand and stare

Take the song as you will, but tonight I saw a sight that could only be described by these words. My brother and I found our backyard a lit with hundreds of  fireflies flitting all over. It was quite a sight to behold - an endless, fluorescent dance of sorts. Our backyard looked like a sparkling, shimmery canvas of dark blues and blacks, lit with tiny wisps of bright yellow. A tantalizing, gorgeous part of summer :)

I couldn't get a photo - my camera isn't strong enough for things of this sort, but I found a picture that sums it up perfectly --

Updates Updates Updates

Seems that it has been forever since I updated this blog!! Summer is in full swing, and it's already Week 3 of my summer internship. Which means that I am completely, totally (and irreversibly, it seems) sucked into Summer Internship World. My day starts at 7am (a pity), and after a full day of work I only have time for 1. running/dancing 2.dinner 3.shower and then I haul myself to bed...and the cycle repeats again. I'm thinking of changing my name to Summer Intern Diva. My weekends right now are full of dance dance and more dance!! But on the plus side, in just over two weeks I'll be heading off to a gorgeous Indian wedding and I can't be more excited!!!

So....there you have it. I will try to update soon.

I finally found a few minutes (and I may or may not have hijacked the family car) to run to the library and pick up a few books from my Summer Reading Lust List. I just finished reading Wake and Fade by Lisa McMann and can't wait to get my hands on Gone!! Next up is The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, and I'm very excited because its one of those loooooong novels that I totally love :)

And with that I'm off to get started for a bit on The Name of the Wind, and then it's off to bed in preparation for another day for Summer Intern Diva.

Until next time,
~ UnderCover Diva (currently Summer Intern Extraordinaire)

Weddings :)

Indian weddings are known to be long, lavish affairs with tons of food, glitter, music, and dancing. I'm super excited to be attending a wedding in just over a month!! I've compiled an inspiration board full of lovely images of Indian weddings in all their glory.
Enjoy!! :)

A Little bit of Serenity Under the Stars

I'm blogging from my porch - my feet up on the wooden railing, surrounded by soft, dusky light, fireflies, and the heady smell of summer flowers. A perfect way to end a long, hot, and tiring day :)

The Little Things :)

Finally, I'm all done with school!! I came home yesterday to find my garden and porch abloom with a riot of colors. Take a look!!
