The Dance Competition
Never did I ever in my wildest dreams think I'd blog something like this. To make it short and sweet, an organization that I know, Sri Sasthas Organisation [Click here if you wanna know more about them] , is organizing a dance competition called Uyir Thuli Sangamam on the 7th of march at Jeletung CC. Which by the way is at sembawang if you don't use the street directory like me. Tickets selling at $10. Guest Performances by Aerocratz & SYNCHRONIX admist the competition. [And this time, I promise you we will do our best to get the bald guy who refuses to dance with a shirt on wear something to cover his nipples at the least.] If you want to take part in the competition or if you want the tickets for the show, contact Paran @ 91809232. And if he is dead drunk after some kick ass nights in Ashoka, don't worry, we have backup. You can contact Kash who doesn't drink @ 82659365. I'm outta here. Adios.Labels: Dance Competition, Sasthas Pillaigal

The Preview
Come 8th, will mark the 16th year I've participated in Thaipusam. Of course it ain't gonna stop till I am bedridden. Even being crippled wouldn't stop me from participating. For the simple reason that I love murugan. Those coming for my kaavadi pooja, bad news. I've shifted it to a saturaday morning 8am event. [PLEASE PLEASE gimme a wake up call] Those not able to make it, I'll see you at my kaavadi. Which by the way, kicks off at 6am. By which, I meant the prayer. The time I leave the temple, is god destined. And it's not the actual day which takes up alot. The preperations itself, can kill. What I started doing in the morning, didn't finish till the evening. Which of course, is where my murugan sits. I'll blog soon. You can have a sneek peek till I do so. Adios.

Thaipusam 2009
Ah, there we have it. The time has arrived once again. Thaipusam 2009 this time. I blog once every year about this. This year, it might become twice. [See if you get the hint] And sadly, urumee melams have been barred from Thaipusam henceforth. Don't start cursing the HEB. [Which, I know, alot of people do] I know about people wanting to send emails to the HEB. I know about people writing in petitions to HEB to allow musical instruments on the roads. Take it from the man who knows a lil more details about the things happening. Email the MDC and the police. For, the rules this year, are VERY affected thanks to them. No use getting at HEB. They're my friends. I know what's happening. All the best with the petitions and emails. Adios.Labels: Thaipusam 2009

Alarm Clocks And Instructions
The one thing I hate- Waking up early. For, I seriously have a problem with waking up. Exactly the reason why I dropped out. I barely attended classes to make it for the exams. Percentage attendance plays a part in you getting the chance to sit for the finals. So like as I always do, I screwed up big time in New Zealand. I was made 'In Charge' of training troops. And part of my duty included waking the training troops up for trainings in the morning. [Me, of all people in the whole wide world] And like how my life is an excellent illustration of Murphy's law, it had to screw up. I painfully signed 7 extras and my captain was all over me like this:
*After what seemed like a hard kick on my sleeping bag*
Captain: PRABA! WHAT TIME ALREADY?! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU STILL SLEEPING?
Me: *Sleepy* HUH? What time is it?
Captain: *Pissed* IT'S F***ING 8AM ALREADY! WHAT TIME ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE UP?! [You'd never see words censored on this blog. But because I am fasting, miracles happen]
Me: Oh! Sorry sir, didn't realise.
Captain: *Still pissed* DIDN'T REALIZE? WHY DO YOU THINK THEY INVENTED ALARM CLOCKS FOR?
Me: I did set the alarm sir.
Captain: THEN WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU WAKE UP AT 7AM THEN? I DID REMIND YOU TO SET THE ALARM CLOCK AT 7AM RIGHT?
Me: Yes sir.
Captain: *Screaming* THEN?!!
Me: You told me to set the alarm at 7am sir. But you didn't tell me which time zone to set it at. So I, by default, set it at Singapore time zone sir.
Captain: GO SIGN 7!
Me: ..............................Labels: Alarm Clocks
