Summer Sunday Picnic (Singiri)

                       I and my friends went on a picnic to a place called Singiri Hills.This place is famous for a temple.This place is 25 km from Katpadi.We took a call taxi to visit this place.We started at 8 am in the morning after having breakfast.

                                                     
                        The road was sunny and dusty till the outskirts of Vellore.But after sometime we enjoyed a beautiful village scenery view.We passed through paddy fields and other cultivation land.We had a sight of colourful village atmosphere.We stopped in the roadside and took some photos in the fields.



                      Then we started our journey to Lord Lakshmi Narasimha Swamys' temple.This temple is located on a rocky hill and a small river flows before the entrance of the temple.As it is summer there was only little water in the river.These waters had a plenty of fish in them.



                        After spending sometime walking across the river we reached the temple.We proceeded for darshan and had a great darshan.Then we came out of the main temple and the view from here was really good.We sat there for sometime enjoying the cool breeze and had prasadam.The view from the temple is...



                         We came down the hill and had some snacks and cool drinks.Then we came to know about a zoo nearby from the people in the shop.We decided to visit zoo since we had time till the evening.Amirdhi Zoo is about 5km from Singiri Temple.


                         We reached there by 11 am.This zoo has a variety of wildlife compared to the other ones in this district.We saw deer,peacocks,crocodile,some kinds of pythons,porcupines,jackals and some birds.We saw a dancing peacock and a tamed deer,which was roaming with a care taker like a pet...!!






                           After spending some time in the zoo,we started to our hostel.On our way,we stopped near a restaurant inside the town and had lunch.It was almost 2pm when we finished the lunch.Then we returned to the college hostel and took rest.

                          It was really a great picnic.We all enjoyed to the core both in Singiri and in Amirdhi zoo.At the end of the day it is a wonderful experience and a beautiful memory.This might be my last picnic in the college since my year of study is going to end in another ten days.......

Hair care in hostel

                       This summer we all have many hair problems like dandruff and hair fall.Dandruff may be because of dry scalp for most of us.Hair becomes dry when we use any anti-dandruff shampoo.As a solution to this problem, I and my roommate tried a new hair pack with egg.We made two different types of hair packs.
               
The ingredients we used for these packs are easily available.They are:


  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 lemon
  • Olive Oil
  • Half cup of Curd
  • Banjaras' Hair pack powder (optional)
                         In the first pack,we used only the white portion of an egg.We slowly punched a small hole in the egg and separated the white portion.Then mixed half of lemon juice,5ml of Olive oil and one and a half tea spoon of curd.Its not easy to beat the mixture.After beating well,the pack is ready.This pack is not thick.


                         In the second pack,we used both yolk and white portion of egg.Then mixed another half of lemon juice,5ml of Olive oil,one and a half tea spoon of curd and Banjaras' Hibuscus hair pack powder.After beating all the above mentioned ingredients,the pack is ready.This pack is thicker than the first pack.


                            These hair packs must be applied to damp hair.My roommate applied the first mentioned hair pack and I applied the other one.Applying from scalp to the end of the hair yields good results(from our experience).We left it for an hour and washed our hair with a mild shampoo.


                              After washing, my hair became soft,silky and shiny.Now I love to touch my hair.I observed forty percent of decrease in hair fall.So continuing this hair care damage therapy once in a week would fully repair my hair and controls dandruff and hairfall.I want to end this Hair care therapy by saying "I love to touch my hair now".
