Diwali 2022 is exactly what it sounds like, a wonderful blend of joy, friendship, and lifelong relationships. From the very initial planning meetings to the last minutes of the final event, it was a roller coaster with a lot of highs, some lows and a lot of fun. What started with a small group chat and just an event that was part of the Global Ambassadors, Diwali quickly snowballed into an experience of a lifetime. For me personally dance rehearsals were one of the best highlights of the entire process. Picking the songs, choreographing the dance, making the final audio, and being coordinated while dancing required a lot of hard work and effort. Each and everyone involved played a huge role in making these performances a success, whether it was mixing the songs, giving up sleep for rehearsals, hearing me yell when there was lack of discipline. The entire team stuck together through everything to make this event a success. This event is something I will treasure for the years to come. I learned a lot of new things and met wonderful friends that made an impact in my life. It is suffice to say that this was one of the best Diwali’s in my entire life.
