12/28/13 Fun Day 

Today was a really chill day 'cause I woke up at 12:00 in the morning and that's practically half a day you know. I got yelled at like 80 times cause apparently we were supposed to go somewhere really special and that I was making everyone late. Finally I hopped into the shower and made myself presentable in formal Indian attire. I was wearing a REALLY baggy trouser type pants(kinda like M.C. Hammer pants, but not really) with little purple flowers on them and a really long green top with magenta flowers on them. If you really wanna know, what it looked like, I'll post a link down below. (Keep in mind, that this isn't what my outfit actually looks like, but it's the same style.)  

(It looks like that except my top is longer ant the colors are different)

So anyways, after changing I had my hair in a fishtail, and for my makeup, I wore the Rimmel Scandal Eyeshadow in Bad Girl Bronze, and on top, the foresty green shadow from the Elf Beach Beauty Palette. I used the Maybelline BIG Great Lash Mascara and I opted for the Rimmel Stay Matte powder on my t-zone.
We then left for the BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in Chino Hills which took like 45 minutes and I have to say, I thought that this would be boring, bu the temple was gorgeous. The architecture was absolutely amazing and the inside was even better. 
(The temple from the outside, they also have a fountain)

(The inside was completely made out of marble and the details are so intricate) 

I wasn't expecting much out of this temple, but it really did the Indian temples proud. The inside is completely illuminated by light reflecting off of white crystalline marble, and each pillar is so intricately carved, you could stare at it for ages. There are two domes and on the inside of each dome, there are like a trillion god like statues representing each value (ie. harmony, non-violence....). This is truly a place to visit if you live near Chino Hills in California.  

Anyways, that's it for today, I'll see you tomorrow with a new place to visit. 

Buhbye, 
Priya
