During Navarathiri being one of the most Important celebration, my mom ensures different type of prasadams are offered to Goddess for next 10 days without failures. Hymns and Manthra’s are chanted continously to invoke Divine Mother. The festival is grandly celebrated at temple starting with Ganapathi & Chandi Homams, prayers, bhajanai’s, Nadaswaram’s and cultural programmes. Bharathanatyams, Folk dance, Kollam competition and stage drama’s are set as part of the celebration. Navaratiri falls on Puratasi month , thus on Saturday’s Goddess Durga will be adorned as Goddess Vishnu-Durga with sankhu and Shakaram on her both hands with lotus flowers.
It is advised to fast or atleast observe vegetarian for 10 days and divert the mind towards spiritual to gain Divine Mothers blessing.

US famous Radio station while airing GOTCHA programme . Famous programme’s of Mr.Snake - SuperSilver Snake Craziest show .. This conversation is between a Indian Women whom lives in US with her cheating husband. Listen to this video :-

Dhaam Dhoom (DD) is much expected movie from Director Jeeva whom gave number of hits such as Unaale-Unaale. The story revolves a Doctor whom went to Moscow to attend for a conference and caught up with murder which he didn’t commit.True colors of Communism is shown clearly in this movie, brutal hitting and scurrying. The opening song/rap with Malaysian notch artiste Mr.G is fascinating. Lakshmi Rai’s acting is just wonderful and much improvement could be witnessed compared to her previous movie, her lawyer-criminal tacts with wittiness towards Jayam Ravi is amazing . Her character seems to be scoped compared to Kangana Raut, Kangana somehow rather resembles Yesteryears actress HemaMalini.

After the death of Director Jeeva the storyline doesn’t seem to that impressive.Perhaps it could be different if he is still around. As usual there are many illogical scenes, such as riding the bike without holding the handle and day dreaming at same time , after being gunned - Ravi will still be able to medicate himself without removing the bullet from his chest worst still he helped that Russian and women and entertained her although he is unaware of her identity. This movie is not depicted as a normal masala movie but rather seems to be thrilling and your mind anticipate too much on the next scene. So it is a big let down expecially the climax .

 Let down !

I applied for technical role but was given only a Call Center position. Im very technical person, gained the knowledge at HP Singapore vastly. I can assemble PC on my own, that was my capabality but due to my young age and proficient merely on Adv.Diploma level didn’t earn me high salary or any better position that I wanted. Life is still hard, because the salary at KL is much lower than whan Im earning at S’pore. I left my job due to retrenchment and the fire to pursue my studies is still a desire in me.
I stumbled upon Master’s degree with Systematic, registered and paid the downpayment, Im not eligible to withdraw from my EPF at that age, and monthly payment is half of my salary. I bought a kancil that time as well, thus the salary is just enough to support my studies, parents and car. I didn’t enjoy much with my salary but happy that Im studying, so I started teaching tuition for some kids after work. I still remember I used to teach continuously 4 hours (2 hours per house) after work that is till 10pm. I didn’t charge much as the family is not well to do but I still continued. Present rate at KL is Rm35 per hour but I didn’t charge by hour due to the family situation but merely RM150 for 3 students of Secondary school. I toiled day and night to support my studies and my families.However the constraint for my studies continued, lethargic and tired due to work, tuition and study till late night. I need to wake up as early as 5:30am to reach office by 7am.

During my Master’s number of books needed increased expensive as well. So I stop driving to work, but used LRT and Famous " Nadaraja Service" - walking, to save money on petrol. I used to be drenched in rain water and dried under sun. I started cutting my expenses by depending on biscuits and fruits for lunch at office. I saved every little money that I can for my studies, books and exam fees. At office I worked hard and within months after joining was promoted to Tech.Support exec and years to Team lead.Once after my Adv. Post graduate - I nearly quitted my studies because it gets tougher, I cried deeply in silence, because being a IT student I don’t have much knowledge on Finance and economics, it is simulation question and toughest among all. Top of everything I skipped many classes during weekend due to nature of my work. Thus I need to study on my own and understand the essence of the management from my own derivatives, which is not a easy way out. But the will power and my parents love conquered everything, the encouragement that they gave instilled in us is tremendous. I continued and completed the simulation with the help of Rex ( son of leading business magnate in London).I didn’t have time to go out with friends neither enjoy any life or entertainment. My cycle was office->House->Tuition->College. I rarely shopped for any new clothing or purchase anything. I still remember at office im being refered as " Anti-Socialis" , it is not that I don’t want to participate in any event, the situation was such. Unexplainable.

My religious belief is very strong and my continuous prayers kept me going on. However I didn’t do any special prayers for Lord Sanni on saturday to evade his effect but prayed to my Beloved Supreme Lord Shriman Narayana. (I read in many religous book that it is advisable to lit oil lamp on saturday for Lord Sanni).

When I started my Master’s twice Im being admitted in the hospital once for head injury at Assunta hospital due to "accident", being injected continuously from various testing and scanning. The second admission is for my Spinal-nerve problems due to slip disk and intertwining of main nerves in spinal at lumbar 5. During which I can’t sneeze when Im standing, I will collapse. The excruciating pain prolonged with hyperventilation attack that I used to get now and then. Hyperventilation attack gives me a sense that my death is nearing - gasping for oxygen continuously. Health condition is badly inflicted.Few years ago, I went through surgery due to inflamed tissue which is about to toxicity my respiratory area and it needs to be removed immediately else it might cause more health conditions. Again Im very much sad abt the whole thing of surgery, I can’t help it. It is very painful seizures.

Finally after much painful health conditions I manage to complete my Master’s successfully.Yes the day finally came, my graduation. Im unable to describe the happiness when I receive the scroll - that was the time where 7 1/2 years of sanni cycle came to abrupt -end.In the whole story of 7.5 years 2 other major "incidents" happened which I would prefer to remain anonymous, I was mentally "torchured" for 7 years & mentally "abused" . I lived in fear for the 7 years of my life, feared for many thing till it cause my first landing in the hospital due to head injury - the so called "accident".

During the first 2 years when Im still in college -NIIT, a Chief Priest from India - Sri Kalikambal Temple - Swami Satha Sivom. He appeared in the Rajni’s movie " Baba" , the statue used in the movie is from his temple. He is none other than the GREAT Saivisme follower Sivachariar T.Sambamoorthy’s son. The Late T.Sambamoorthy Sivachariar is the 3rd highest priest in India and world renown priest whom have conducted thousands of Yagnas, Yagams, Kumbhabhishegam and gave speech for world peace around world. I have met the GREAT and received his blessings when I was a kid. Swami Satha Sivom ( who was undergoing silence) stayed with us for many months when he came to know the disastrous ( which need to be remained anonymous) happened. He advised both myself and sister to leave our home and stay in another place as we’re both going through Sanni thesai, it is advisable to not see our parents face everyday. Also we’re advised to cross sea if possible, we crossed sea almost every weekend - passing JB to Singapore. It is a ritual to reduce the impact of Sanni. He conducted numerous prayers for our family, homam’s and continuous deep meditation at our home. He is someone whom I respected for everything that he have done for us - Agains GOD SEND Man !

I need to admit I forgot to add few other prediction the astrologer blurted, he said that we will not be able to pursue our studies neither continue our studies, we will run away from the house and entangled in love life. I believe at tht young age most of the astrologer prediction will b the same old bull story.

let me continue.

After SPM Though Im not at all interested to further my studies in any other field than medicine. Since i lost 1 point for my aggregrade, I have received letter to study in the top notch school for STPM - English College in JB. Taking into consideration my mom’s advice to study in IT field. Started my college at NIIT, although having so much of dislikes I went on. That time I haven’t used a computer, I don’t even know what is copy-paste ( once I used to memorize the steps for copy-paste for my exam !! hahah Damn IT Dummy but now Im sitting and blogging) hehe. I went through so much with the studies because I hated it, but my SPM result is my firing point in my life, I studied very hard and passed all my papers with distinction and flying colors.Two years of college life about to end …. Dang ! My mom came back with a bad news that Singapore is Retrenching, she is affected and retrenched. A month later the same thing happen to my dad when the company is being taken over by another firm and he is already 55 years old and to be retired as well. I clearly remember it was October and Msia is facing the heat of economy crisis. Retrenchment happened globally.
Now both my parents are jobless and we’re about to end of college life to pursue our degree. We have decided the college to enter and even suggested some twinning program with UK. Things took sudden turn, major disappointment… My parents got cheated by unscruplous Share market remisier , we lost Huge amount of money, all that are my parents hard earned money, their sweat and blood. So now both myself and my sis decided to start looking for job to support our parents and we need to pay for loans, our dream to pursue degree took a quick twist. A month after my college studies was completed, we manage to secure a job at HP Singapore as Technical Asst. But before we secure the job, we ran into financial constraint, I do remember that week was Navaratiri, myself and my sis used to go to temple for prayers and temple food, we will pack and bring back for my parents as well. Yes we had difficulties even with food !! My parents went through much trauma after losing their job and losing huge amount of money. What a Karma effect ! Suffered so much at tht young age where I see girls in my age are much jollying and enjoying their teenage years happily.
Job at Singapore is a challenging, we worked at Alexandra Rd before being transfered to Sengkang. We need to wake up as early as 4am to get ready to work, to dress up, drive to JB custom and take a 170 bus to Kranji (the S’pore Immigration Jam is killer and polluted our breathing daily). From Kranji MRT to Yio Chu Kang , another bus to Sengkang and 15 min walk to the school. Im just 19 yrs old at tht time, Technical Asst means, The only technical IT personnel and need to support - 500 PC/laptops, projector,Camera (Digital/Video), Patching Lan Cables, Testing of RJ45 cables in LAN room, mounting the servers on the rack and all MOE apps. Yes singapore schools are equiiped with such Hi-Fi facility unlike schools in malaysia. 4 storey building and you need to carry the heavy monitors and PC up and down without using the lift. I did build a lean muscle The user’s in Spore are very nasty at times, but there are just many wonderful people around there. It was in HP I learned IT deeply such as laying of fiber channel, backup and I used to climb the server rack to mount servers. I will finish work at 5pm and reach my JB home at 10pm. I had enough time to take shower, dinner and sleep, the next day need to wake up at 4am in the morning and repeat the whole cycle again. What a life man !!

It is already 30 days and now time for my first salary , since I don’t have a bank account yet, cheque is given to us. But to encash it you need to open a account with POSB, but before that you need to have valid work permit. Permit will take some time to be processed and etc, I do remember that day , never will I erase it from my sense even at this moment, I only have SGD5 with some coins with me, I went to Tanjung Pagar for my permit And unsure where exactly the building is and have been walking up and down for hours, no one helped me. I asked many ppl but all gave wrong direction. It is freaking hot and im getting dried under the sun, Lastly I manage to approach a kind hearted gentleman , he showed me the way. His name is Ananth - Foreigner, someone holding very high post, he took a cab to IBM tower first, bought for me food capati and chick peas. God knows how hungry I was that time.

***I don;t want to waste money by eating as I need SGD5 to take MRT back to Woodlands !!
Infact for work permit I need to go to MOM not Immigration office !!! The HR Manguz didn’t give correct information, he took the cab again to MOM and drop me there and gave me SGD10 for me to go back, although I didn’t utter to him that Im lacking of cash !! Im speechless at the moment, he is total stranger but came all the way and took all the trouble to guide and show me the way. He is a GOD send man. After I get my clearance i quickly went to nearest POSB to encash the cheque.
*** Im totally stranger at Singapore- at the age of 19 I didn’t know much about the roads
or anything, but all this exhausted moments I went through alone ***

Days by days gone, every saturday I used to walk from Singapore customs to JB City Square
under the freaking hot burning sun or raining, as the causeway is packed up with cars. Very
tiring and tiring. I have only sunday to rest but the rest is never enough for anything, Sunday evening I used to teach at computer class to earn extra cash also tuition at the same time. It is very tiring and some didn’t even pay me the fees untill today !!
As days goes on, I started fall sick very frequently,perhaps of the tiredness..and the job at Singapore is mind boggling, they squeeze every cents out from our blood and sweat ! I never seat at my place always on the move walking up and down, I used to hold handphone,pager and walkie talkie , if there is any issue the teachers would page for me and I need to respond quicker than superman !! There are lot of dungu’s there, some even will shout that the printer is not printing without switching on the printer, some will even say unable to open their file without putting in their diskette in the PC !! Better still some put the diskette into the CD-ROM compartment and got the whole ROM stucked !! I
feel like laffing now but at tht time !@#$#%%$% !! For all their silly mistake I need to respond fast , just imagine if everyone are the same.
We rented a room in Singapore . Since I wanted to save money, I started eating less at night, I merely will stick to Thosai (being the cheapest food) at night, again started to fall on sick. SInce I wanted to pursue my studies, I took MCSE classes and paid for the courses+ the exam fee, can you imagine, I saved little by little and after completing all the 7 modules, when I’m about to Sit for the exam , The goverment sealed the office and our money never refunded. So I lost my money again with unscruplous education center.So food story and Singapore working life came to end after almost working 1.5 years.
I didn’t stop checking out colleges in Malaysia to pursue my studies, some even say that we will never study because we started to taste the sweetness of money. But I know deep in my heart I didn’t, we took the move to work to support my parents, to help them to recover from the losses that happened.I haven’t tasted the sweetness of money yet, I could only smell my blood and sweat in my salary, I went through the pain at young age. I know the true meaning of hunger and moneyless !!

I manage to get job at Standard chartered Bank in Malaysia, KL. I quit my job and moved on to Msia. …To be continued.

Part 1.

Initially i thought of starting a new blog for this special topic - Effect of 7 1/2 years of Saturn cycle ( 7rai naatu sanni). But I decided to stick with my current blog else it will becomeredundant and unmanageable. The main reason for me to write all the ordeal that I went through during this period is to share the challenges and obstacles and how to revive from it.I don’t feel shy to share the story, as this is true story that happened in my life and many lessons that I learned. The 7.5 years cycle has completed 2 years ago, For my raasi Rishabam the cycle started on 1997 April. A flashback….

I still remember clearly on 13th April 1997 ( one day before Tamil New Year) one man -Jothidar came to our house. The main purpose is not for astrology but to sell the Gayathri

Manthra Alarm Clock and Tulsi pot from India. While he is marketting his products he deliberately told my parents that he is can predict /explain on astrology, thus mom gave our birthdate, and time . He explained that we will be going through 7.5 years cycle of Sanni effect. He added that no matter how hard we studied , we won’t be getting Grade 1 for SPM, won’t be pursuing in Medical studies (my ambition is to become Forensic pathologist - I know this field is not any girls fav line, but it is mine), will go through a lot of struggle, Not to get married before the completion of 7.5years, will earn very bad name from relatives/friends etc etc etc and expected to fall in love and will be troubled by a boy .

I didn’t believe him at all, being science student from the ONLY science class in my school and top 10 student in the whole tingkatan, he couldn’t be much bothered with his prediction, however there is still small doubt running around my head. I studied against all the odds, being a pure science student there is more struggle need to be in place compared to rest of my friends. Among my good friends now Dr.Chitra, Kalay, Kavi there is a competition that we set to ourself. We studied and studied, I participated in Inter School debate and won till district level and manage to get my rural school in the eyes of Johor State govt. Im also nominated and won as the BEST SPEAKER. Im proud of myself to receive the scroll from District of JB. We got the third placing after we lose to English College (Maktab Sultan Abu Bakar) - the famous Royal School in JB. Not easy to compete this dragon boys !! But Im still happy because it has never happen in the school history that we won english debate to District level.  I also participated in Walkathon and got a medal for myself.  All this gives me more confidence that astrology prediction is falsified. On top of that Im school’s top History scorer.

My SPM Trial result is out… I got a Grade 1.
Finally SPM came and over. Theafter my schoolmate - boy started to develop feelings for me and has been harassing me with phone calls and worst still he send me a expensive birthday card - those days a huge card with music and lights are the most expensive cards. I remember i tore it into pieces and flush it in the toilet bowl. My mom’s strict upbringing would not be happy or keen to see all this.

The following year, SPM result is announced, I went to collect my slip… I almost fainted. I got a grade ‘2′ I missed the Agggregrade by 1 point.. Damn it !! 1 point changed my whole life upside down, I was sickly sad, horrible and thinking where I went wrong. I didn’t swallow any food for few days. Very disappointed with myself.
Remember The boy tht gave me love card, called me and irritated me that day, he got a Grade 1 and was blowing horns through his nose !!
….to be continued..

"Invest money into investment plan, this will make you rich quicker. Why suffer working for long hours in the office? See now within 6 months Im driving brand new mercedez, I just bought a condo at a top notch area . Living a confortable life, If you have extra cash please give it to me, I will help you to invest and monthly you will get some interest, the more you invest the higher the interest you receive "  Sounds Familiar ?????????? This is nothing else than Get-Rich-Quick-Scheme. This had been rampantly reported in newspaper and talk of the town. If many of you could remember 10 years ago Johor was hit with this scheme, many invested in terms of millions, they receive handful investment return on monthly basis. But no one is aware where actually the money was invested, how the returns are calculated and best part is what is the company name .
Due to this many have resigned from their current job and started becoming agent with the bogus company, some re-mortgage the housing loan and invested the money in the so -called investment, not only that some have started buzily renovating the house as the interest money is getting thicker and thicker, securing property and getting luxorious car.
Worst still they continued  asking friends and relatives to invest in the scheme, some of them are Old Grandpa & Grandma whom have toiled their blood out to in FD and EPF . They withdrawed and invested. The plan goes on like this let’s say uncle Babu invested RM20000 , He receives monthly RM2,400 as interest payment (12% return), the agent whom Uncle Babu invested will get extra 2% of each thousands that is being invested under him. Dang !! Rm2,400 is equivalent to a one month salary of a executive 10 years ago. So most of them quit their job and started becoming agent and pulling people from street to invest. No one ever stop and think where does the money goes, how it is invested or where it is invested, how the dividends, ROI and being produced. When the money churning become easy, our eyes are blind to search for truth. The sad story is 99% of the affected are INDIANS !!!
Slowly the HEAD of this agents started printing profile of their companies, I remember of seeing those "photostated and neatly binded story book  which is no worth of 5cents ", It seems they have invested in plantations, Oil companies, educations & even overseas Swiss Banks !!! Poor people seeing all this untrue fact they are easily diluted in the falsified informations and started pawning gold and investing . The true story behind it is, the money is never invested anywhere, the roll the money within their agents and paid off to the people, as more money is churning , it becomes easier for them to roll and pay the same principal as Interest !! ( Don’t faint yet, this is the "new banking technology sprung 10 years ago in JB") .

One day the Govt stopped this scheme by arresting those agent’s bosses followed the agents stopped giving Interest to the poor people by saying the Authority has confiscated their companies money and now they are unable to pay interest. Some started to say also that the authority has freezed the account of 2 Billion thus the money cannot be utilized until the case is being cleared. The agents are still cheating through their nose without publishing the true story to the poor indians in johor. Remember the poor indians took the money from their relatives, all have started nagging for the interest else the principal should be return, since they are unable to do so and unable to bear the torchuring words from their relatives, they have commited suicide, ran away from the country silently leaving their Bungalows, luxuries car and property behind. No one knows what happened to them. Some has fixed gangsters, morons to threathen for their money, some even being hold at gun point… Worst worst, some this morons even requested the agents wife to sleep with them for exchange of money being invested.

It is 10 years now, people are still struggling as they have lost everything left with paying hefty bank loans for the house re-mortgage, working as General cleaner in Singapore to support their schooling children and some have forgotten the bitter episodes. Some are still cursing and threathing the agents for money. There is no free lunch or easy money in this world. Money that is made from crooked ways never stick on you for long time. Learn to live with what you have, earn extra money in healthy way and it will be with you always and forever. Don’t get blinded with anything you see… do some research. Always go through the bank for clearance. GET RICH QUICK SCHEME IS ILLEGAL !!
