Author: Hi! My name is Megha and I was assigned to research
Uganda, Africa. The two countries that my family came from was India
and British of India, which is now known as Pakistan. At home we
mostly celebrate Indian holidays such as Diwali (where you are
supposed to light candles and let go of them and wait till it
shoots up in the sky) and Holi (where you are supposed to wear
your best clothes and put fire in a tree, but for the second day
you have to wear your worst clothes in order to throw
different colors at everyone). When someone gets a new job, new
house etc, we are supposed to have a pooja. A pooja is where a priest
comes over and says some things to make the house blessed
and to wish you luck in that house, job etc.
The country I am studying is Uganda, which is in
Africa.
