Strange-smelling adventure?

Today I got up and did some studying, then ate lunch and went with my grandma to visit my great-grandmothers grave. I never knew her, but today was All Souls Day, so a lot of people were at the cemetery putting flowers and such on the graves. 

I am currently a Catholic, but I think it's dumb to believe or trust in something when you don't know what other options or viewpoints or arguments there are, so I'm very interested in learning about other religions. Well it just so happens that this week the inter-religion group (or something like that) is doing a "religion week", where every day a different religion opens their church or temple or mosque doors and anyone can come and be informed about that religion. I think that is the coolest thing ever. So today the Hindu temple that's only a 10 minute walk away from my grandmas house was doing a presentation, so we went. It was super cool. Completely different from anything I've ever seen. The only bad thing was whatever they were burning gave me a massive headache. But other than that it was fascinating. (And I did ask if it was ok to take pictures, don't worry)
Afterwards I went over to my Aunts house for her to give me a mini French lesson. Then I came home, ate dinner, and Skyped with my family. I miss you guys!
