Hey YOU..DoN't B1OcK the BlOgGerZ

I landed KLIA from Los Angeles and given a yellow sheet to test against H1N1. I visited the nearest clinic at my place after 3 days of Quarantine. However, The Doctor is quite terrified and reluctant to check me. He kept on looking at the yellow sheet, untill I started chatting with him. The first question he asked " Why did you come here" ?? , Im puzzled and horrified at same time. When I answered for H1N1 check-up, he started rambling and requested me to go to General Hospital instead of Clinic.

It seems if Im infected with H1N1 and diagnosed through his clinic, the clinic will be closed for 7 days and he will loose his business for entire week !!!  Since I didn’t develop any symptoms against H1N1 and safe to unquarantine. But it is a ordeal to go through the 7 days at home , hoping for best of health condition !!

Pheww…

We have always enjoying having meals and there are time where the food are left over…

Do you know where it goes….

This is another true story that happened in JB. Name has been changed for privacy purpose.

Aravind is a pet boy for his parents, being the youngest and only son , he is the apple eye of his parents. He gets things done his way. During his free time that is after school he will play football with his friends in the " Taman padang". His parents let him to go on his way, he is also deemed to be the lucky boy that brought fortune to his parents.

His peers suggested to play online " counter -strike game" instead of football, Aravind lied to his parents, instead of going to tuition he started going to cybercafe religously with his peers. There he is exposed to many vices including illegal gambling and smoking. This illegal activity has been going on for few months, apparently some neighbours alerted his parents abt Aravind’s behaviour and seen in Cybercafe’s for hours. His parents brushed off the complaints as they have trust in their son.

One day Aravind gambled and lost all the money and started borrowing money from Cybercafe boss for few hundreds, the boss is none other than famous " Ah-Long". When the boss confronted money from Aravind, he took the blade knife and slashed the Ah-Long’s wrist and ran away.

The rest, well… He got arrested at such a young teenage age and was jailed for few days. Aravind’s parents used all the will-power of money and manage to get him out !!

Now he is a grown-up boy who didn’t excel in studies but his parents are still spoiling him!!! ;-(

This is a true story that happened 10 years ago @ one of the famous school in Pasir Gudang
Johor. This story also proves how movies influence students at young age. There is this
form 2, 14 years old girl - Seetha ( name changed for privacy purpose) and a form 1 boy Vinesh -a 13 years old boy. Vinesh is quite handsome and good looking which attracted many indian girls in the school. He receives love letter from many Indian girls, the letter varies from biodata details to very extreme details . Seetha caught herself entangled in Vinesh’s look and fall in love with him, Mind the age !! She tried everything she can to win over his love but all her efforts failed miserably.
One day she wrote suicide note to Vinesh if he didn’t agree to love her she will commit suicide in the school’s toilet. Seetha’s friend handed over the note to Vinesh and after reading he ran to the girl’s toilet accompanied with Seetha’s friend(s). Inside the toilet, Vinesh saw Seetha with few of her classmates. Seetha took out a blade and threathened to slit her wrist if Vinesh declined. Vinesh is forced and finally agreed to love her. Not only that Seetha handed over a " Thaali" - Sacred Nuptial knot to Vinesh to tie around her neck to solemnize their wedding in the school toilet. Poor boy after much threat and agony he tied the thaali and placed the sacred kum-kum on Seetha’s forehead. Her friends threw yellow rice !! Perhaps toilet flush would be their kettimellam Lolz !!
Im unsure what happened after that, I heard that the girl eloped from the house and started
staying at Vinesh’s place. Seetha comes to school with red kum-kum, soon i heard both of them is dismissed from school with disciplinary action.Sad thing is that ,A sacred event as such took place in a toilet and I wonder whether the student understood the true meaning of marriage and it’s purpose.

What is the Aura ?

Aura of leaf in Kirlian Camera

Everything in the Universe seems to be just a vibration. Every atom, every part of an atom, every electron, every elementary “particle”, even our thoughts and consciousness are just vibrations. Hence, we may define the Aura as a electro-photonic vibration response of an object to some external excitation (such as an ambient light for example). This definition is sufficient for the purpose of reading Auras, providing that we can train ourselves to see the Aura vibration. The Aura around humans is partly composed from EM (electromagnetic) radiation, spanning from microwave, infrared (IR) to UV light.

The low frequency microwave and infrared part of the spectrum (body heat) seems to be related to the low levels of the functioning of our body (DNA structure, metabolism, circulation etc.) whereas high frequency (UV part) is more related to our conscious activity such as thinking, creativity, intentions, sense of humor and emotions. Russian scientists, who seem to be about 3 decades ahead of everyone else in Aura research, make experiments suggesting that our DNA can be altered, by influencing its microwave Aura. The high frequency UV part is very important and most interesting but largely unexplored. And this part can be seen with naked eyes.

Aura of Coins in Kirlian Camera

By reading Aura it seems possible to diagnose malfunctions in the body (diseases) long before physical symptoms become evident. By consciously controlling your Aura you can actually heal yourself. However, healing of the physical body is nothing in comparison to what seeing and reading auras can do for our consciousness, spiritual development and our awareness of Nature …

Auras can be trapped using Kirlian Camera - a special device which forms photogram result from high voltage with minimum corona discharge - a electric field around the edges of objects. Although there are much controversy behind aura trapping, many great saints and scholars has proven people are able to see aura of others through deep meditation and concerntration.

Test this

Place the picture in Fig 1 about 1.5 m in front of you. Look exactly at the black spot for 30 seconds or so and observe colored dots with your peripheral vision. Resist temptation to look anywhere else but the black spot.

Note that colored areas seem to be surrounded by the “Aura” of a different color. When peripheral sensors are stimulated for some time, we have color sensations, much different than when we use the central vision. The longer you concentrate, the brighter is the “Aura” around colored areas, because your sensitivity increases.

Im very glad and happy that Im being choosen as one of the consolation winner for Wijaya Medical Center blog writeup. I would like to extend sincere thanks to AMBP for encouraging us to participate in the contest !! Kudos !! Looking out for more contest

It is a reward for both my cousin Hirrainy and Keshav for helping us during Deepavali. A treat to Singapore !! We had fun and travelled all the major cities in Singapore.. We’re planning for another one next month

Govinda Nama Sankeerthana !!

This year’s Deepavali is very special to me for many reason, one of it will be, I celebrated with SRF members. The programme started at 6pm with short meditation and brief explaination on Festival of lights. The itenary took a bang with childrens performance (Kirtan’s & Chants). Senior members of SRF sung heart mellowing chants - which I personally feel it calls ancient energy which serve our quiet mind, remove obstacles and bring us back to ourselves. I felt peace,harmony and sense of connectivity with God.

The childrens are rewarded for all the hardwork & effort for practising the chants. They became the "celebrity" a.k.a limelight of the evening. ……So What is next ???? FOoooooooD !!  Yes !!, all of us savoured tasty potluck vegetarian food . It is delicious and I savoured almost all the items served !! The desserts are sweetly heaven. I simply had a wonderful time with GOD & kids and lovely SRF members. A sweet day to remember !! 

After applying for Sunway Photography trip (a 2D1N trip to the Lost World of Tambun, Ipoh), my many weeks of waiting ended after I received a call from Michael, AMBP selection. I’m very much delighted and immediately agreed to join the trip. Applying for leave is not a problem for me  . AMBP,relatively new in Malaysia, has setup creative programmes for young blogger like me. The project collates ideas and constructively encourages to think differently and at the same time cultivate hidden skills - for example photography. Upon receiving the itinerary I was  busy preparing to ensure that I’m equipped and geared. We left to Tambun at 10:30am from Menara Star (Phileo Damansara). Transportation along with coach was sponsored by MayFlower. Seating in the bus is comfortable and conducive. The tourist coach gave short presentation on our arrival and other safety measures. . Mayflower provides travel services for almost all top notch companies and it is well known to deliver what is promised and it is a well known virtue of theirs. Prior to this, many times I have used Mayflower services for most of my business trips to Europe and in Asia. When we reached Tambun approximately at 1:30pm, my (our) stomach was growling louder than the tigers in the valley.
We’re received by the Sunway Officals followed by Malayana Tribe dance. What I could hear next was sounds of ‘clicks and flashes of lights’ … Yes photoshooting !!! Then, We’re taken for a short train ride. Ms.Christine (Sunway official) gave a splendid explanation on the salient features of the Park at Sunway Lagoon Resort. At Tiger Valley, which was the next hop, I’m amazed to see such a huge tiger after almost a decade (the last one I saw was at Singapore Zoo when I’m just merely 10 years Old)  It’s amazing to witness the way Sultan, the tiger, grabs its piece of cake (meat). My excitement and amusement continued by the appearance of cute tiger cubs. In the midst of smiles and laughter, i thought to myself "God! You and Your creation indeed beautiful!" The tiger cubs are so adorable kiddos !!
So far entertained my eyes!! Time to entertain my stomach (since it’s signalling for food)!!! So, walked into Kepura Cave for a sumptuous and delicious lunch (first time having lunch at Cave, without bats and other creatures). Now that stomach is full, it is time for some action! A Photography workshop was conducted by Sham, a freelancer for European Agency, who taught and gave tips on photography. I must say that the session is excellent.
Now, it is camping time! At Needle Village, With the help of Vicki , Raaja and Novin i set up my tent where I’m the only resident. My little hut.. Home Sweet Home…is surrounded with trees,bushes and mountains. I rejoiced the connection with Nature that Sunway had painstakingly built and created a beautiful retreat.
Time to get wet! 4 of us walked to soak ourselves at Splashing water park. Me being first timer, I found it quite amazing to feel the solitudes of water and freshness everywhere. Although I didn’t join the trio , I enjoyed capturing the memories in the little device of mine. I’m filled with laughters and happy moments transformed my mind into childlike.
Stomach growling again , it is time for dinner. The aroma of bbq spices and sauces is intoxicating and created gastronamic effect in our tummy. The chef are busy preparing dinner for all of us. We had mouthful of satays, bbqued chicken and sausages and fruit cocktail to wash down the sauces in our mouth. We continously posed to the clicks from many different angles. Next we played the live Counter Strike - The Ultimate Tactial game, it is fun, we’re geared with guns (that can be reloaded) and "ammunition ". We lost to our opponents however it is an adventurous game which involves strategy. However we had fun, that is more important. Raaja’s team won the strike !! Great ! We enjoyed the rest of the night listening to the music of insects’ screeches and rhymes while soaking our feet in the Natural Hot Spring. We yakked away and throwed some grapes to our "Human-Dolphins" in the hot spring.
Another wonderful day!! The next day I woke up as early as 6:30am to catch the early sun-rise plus milk feeding to cubs. I would say that I was frozen without air condition inside the camp !! The morning fresh air creates spikes in our body. It is very fascinating to view the surrounding mountains around Sunway City while watching the cubs being fed with milk. I took light breakfast later, getting prepared for the 6th Mile cave exploration which is arranged by Sunway Officials. We’re divided into 2 groups which consist of 15 of us. Vicki’s group went to Gua Datok while ours to 6th Mile Cave exploration - it is a wet adventure. We did a light excercise to relax our muscles. We wore the cave gears such as head lamp, life jacket and safety helmet. Our cameras are packaged into durable plastics, we’re given Carbo snack and a bottle of mineral water. We swam to the entrance of Cave, we need to cross the river, however due to thick mud (till my waist) we’re supposed to float/swim by holding a rope towards the cave. It is adventurous floating….The entrance of the cave is much smaller than my dog’s tunnel,and it is the same till the end pheww !! The water level is upto my chest.. Arghhh !! Well it is adventure and challenging. The cave was utilized and re-made by Communism during the world war, It is amazing to witness, the hidden treasures of Sunway -deep inside the cave. The crystals shines in dark, the huge array of rocks built by Communis is breathtaking, the patterns of the cave is engraved by Stalagcytes and Stalagmites, the drops from the limestones is chill enough for goosebumps that travels on my spines !!! Not forgetting bats that are dancing on the top !! We reached the end of tunnel, some mountains, we traced the river bank to find for its origin, the water fall is very cool and chilling, I took my chance to give a Shampoo advertisement shot.. hahah  the next moment I know.. I slipped and fell, Im too much delighted with the water fall till forgets to watch my steps on mosses rocks. Yeah I’m hurt terribly but the water is chill enough to distract the pain. I feel very connected and attached to Mother Nature and started enjoying everything that I saw and feel, even when I fell and got hurt. We managed to take some shots of mother nature, Bunga Kantan ( a spice that is well used in Rendang and Curries). We walked back through the same cave to reach our camps. So it is double adventure for all of us, those who missed to capture the uniqueness of the cave had a second chance to witness the art and creativity of divine. Although tired and soaked in fresh water, Im still energetic. Sunway officials had prepared hot steaming food for lunch, I enjoyed the lunch very much, it is one of the best lunch that I ever had, so fresh and tasty. Next I took the final oppurtunity before we head back to KL to soak myself in the Natural Spring Water, the high water pressure from Rock Tiger eases our tiredness away and it is rejuvenating.
Time to pckup!! All of us are busy bringing down our camps and the trio helped me to fold the camps and instruments back to the origins. Before we onboarded our bus, Sunway Officials presented us with a momento, something for us to remember every morning - Yes !! Ipoh White Coffe. After boarding the bus, the next moment all of us dozed off !! Tired but very adventurous experience.

I would like to take the oppurtunity to thank AMBP ( Michael and Andy) , MayFlower and Sunway City Management for arranging such an adventurous and challenging trip for us. It will rejoice in each and everyone’s mind and Sunway Lagoon Resort is a great retreat that one should opt for after medling in a hustle-bustle city life. It’s fortunate to be part of AMBP and looking forward to get myself involved in their upcoming activities.
 
Blogging - a passion that brought a bunch of us - together as FRIENDS.

I started my journey as early as 8am to Singapore, took Aeroline the so called luxury coach, Im not that satisfied with the service provided for the huge money that I paid. Not much on entertainment and pamperings. Reached harbourfront at 1:30pm, still 3 more hours to go for Sandy’s ROM. Thus went to Harboufront shopping, bought some T-Shirts and Japanese delicacies from the fair that is being held inside the mall itself. Pocky cost me SG1 which is quite reasonable or cheap thus bought back quite a number of unique food stuffs that rarely found in Malaysia, ie Smashmallows with Puddings, strawberry, pretzels and Japanese grapes. My stomach is growling, thought os savouring Indianised food , hence took MRT to Little India for perfect Non-Veg food. I walked across Tekka Marker Lane, kerbau Road and finally found this Madras New Woodlands, So signoard indicating it is pure vegetarian food, thus entered the restaurant and ordered a meal. My stomach growling heavily now, the food is served and i feel cheated cause it is a Vegetarian meal instead of Non-Veg. Later I realised it is pure Veg food.
wHAT disappointment ??? Ehmmm smirking and ate the food. Soon after that I walked to Jothi Store Impex and amazed to see the decorative items that is hung for deepavali , greeting cards, sarees, salwars and raw vegetables just being unloaded from lorries. Songs are blasting everywhere, im engrossed in the deepavali mood and a bit reluctant to walk away.Next took a MRT to City Plaza, walk to Peninsular Plaza - this is not a new building for me either. Singapore has developed much from where I left almost 9 years ago. Now Im dressed up and getting ready to Fort Canning Park, Im told FCP is near to Raffles place and behind peninsular plaza , thus I started asking around whether it is possible to walk to FCP, people started mistook me, thinking Im the Bride !@@$$#%$% !! Wishes and congratulating wishes started pouring heavily for me..hahaha Good Joke of the year. I took cab to FCP and greeted by Sandy’s Eldest nephew. Sandy is radiating with her sensual smiles, never seen her shyness perhaps that is waning so long in her. I could see enormous sparkle of joy enumerating from
her eyes. Im formally introduced to her Husband to be , Mr.Kannan. Very humble, pleasant and soft spoken. Very gentlemanism.I chatted & gawking happily with her nieces ,sisters and nephews. Very warm folks, cheerful and I feel very much close to them. After the witness arrived, their NRIC are swiped into the decorder and while waiting for their turn we took turn to take photo’s. I entered the ROM office together with rest of her family members, first time Im witnessing a Marriage registration, very clearly explained before both of them take the oath, very meaningful too. They look at each other’s eyes before confessing the magic word of "I Do ". After that Exchange of rings followed by kisses.
We had photograph session theafter at the garden area. I need to return back to JB the same evening as I’m unable to get any hotels ( due to F1 season), hotels are charging SGD800 for a Standard room that used to be only SGD120. It is sad that I could not join Sandy & Kannan’s ROM dinner. As Im taking my leave, Kannan’s family mistook me for a non-Indian Wedding event planner ………Hahahahaha !!!

Signing of Marriage Cert

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 !
