The Grand Mardi Gras

My aunt asked me to come home to celebrate with them and witness the town's first ever grand Mardi gras. She mentioned it would be very exciting since it's their first time to have merrymaking like that and everybody is doing their own share to make it a success. Since it's been six months since I last went there because of a very busy schedule, I made sure that I can make it no matter what happens. The drive going there was long; hence, it took me over two hours to get there. True enough, everybody was in a festive mood and was busy preparing for the grand parade that afternoon. It was indeed a grand celebration and I had great fun. Add to that, I also got to meet some of my old friends and classmates way back in grade school. We had a sort of reunion and went to the beach after to continue the party. There were plenty of food, drinks and a lot of talking as well. We talked about our lives when we were still younger; all the good and the bad times we had and we just laughed about it. It was indeed a great weekend and I had a blast. On my way back to the city the next day, I received a call from one of my classmates asking for possible Health Insurance Leads because she is now connected with an insurance company. She badly needs my help to meet her target and get her commission. I promised to give her a call back once I get to my place. Thus while on the bus, I started thinking of prospects in order to come up with a list of clients. I just hope she can get the quota.
