I'm very sad that I can't celebrate this as how I could with my family members too. Time is such, that it will take some time to celebrate days, such as this, at home with my parents. But if that happens, than there aren't any thrills, right?
Yesterday, 11th Jan2010, marked six months of a decision that has made my life even beautiful. In another six months, it would be one year. I hope that during this day, I would have my parents feel happy about it. But as for it concerns my parents, that would be lest predictable. Lolz. But nevertheless, I know what I'm doing is not wrong, and I have God to help me through tough times, then.
Six months had been a wonderful journey, as learning and understanding doesn't happen in a split second or overnight. It takes time, doesn't matter if your are fast learner (what else for a slow? - Lolz). the course that I had taken, hadn't not been smooth all the while, as that is life in reality. That's the beauty of Life. I would liek to quote this, something I heard form an advertisement by the Family & something Ministry - Imperfectly Beautiful. If I got it correctly.
It actully explains, how imperfect life is, with lots of tough time, sorrow but it makes our life even beautiful. Unique in its own way.
I can't stop thanking a friend of mine, who was there for me that night. When I were lost. Trying to interpret things as they were. And trying to absorb the reality and go on for it. For, such opportunities may not turn out as beautiful it was at that point of time, even if that decision day was planned well. Least for me, that's the situation. I know for sure, I won't be able to predict, when next it could happen.
Thanks to God too.

SKKuhan went to gym
Today, I went to the UTM gym with my room mate, Heim. The last I went was some three years ago? Instead of my regular jogging, I followed Heim who went (&rode me, i dont ride bikes!!). I do realise(and have been told) that jogging isn't too good for my knee(for the weight that I am), but I have no other choice when I'm feeling introverted with my weight. And that's just another reason I followed Heim today.
The thing about gyms, is that smell. You know, that particular stringent smell? Pheww... But I guess it is just a matter of minutes to get immune and also contribute that odour. Lolz. Cycles were all taken, and I was lucky that some guy finished his session not too long then. First round on the new machine, I were a little blur, till I realised that it was timed 30minutes. I went on to check my stamina, and I felt I could go on for another 15minutes. I successfully completed two rounds. My legs do hurt now, but it is as usual after my regular jogs. I hope! Hehe..
Hope to go gym more often, as it's less effect on the knee, but that would depend on Heim. I shall see how it goes.

Reflection...
Reflection, as it sounds, means looking back into our past. Not just looking, but to think of what good and bad our action had caused onto others.
This is me, writing at the age of 23(turning 24). I think I had been more of a nuisance than anyone could be. Many a times, have I failed the people who Love me. Then, it didn't seem any big deal, but now after seeing a glance of sweet and sour in life, I have realised how much of a jerk have I been, all this years.
Much more could I write about how bad I have been, but I think enough I have regretted about myself.
I want a change! A new me! (Which I think I did promise, but it seems very glaring)
Only person whom I know will help me is Mr God. He's the bestest friend anyone could have! But I had been neglecting him too very frequently nowadays. I think the next person in line, is my mind &heart that I have to synchronise for the transformation of new me.
Wish myself good luck, and big pat on my back to motivate me!
God Bless...

I went to India...
Going India had always been my dream, since a very young age. The more I heard from people who had been there on pilgrimage, the more I wanted to visit India. And so one day, on the 20th Nov 09, it all happened, but still, when I arrived in Malaysia, it all seemed like a dream! A really good dream..
And I must thank my brother, Eeswaran, who actually took me along! Thanks ane.
Upon arriving Tiruchi, we felt kinda lost for a moment, until it clicked in my mind that our guide would definitely hold a card with ane's name on it. Walking out of the airport, I noticed that almost everyone wore a white shirt. Sparkling white!! Ane was good enough to have identified our driver, Segar. We walked to wards the van and I realised that our bags wouldn't fit into the van. Segar who realised my reaction immediately told me not worry and that he would put them on the top of the van. He climbed in less than split second, ane helped lift the bags to him, and within 15minutes, he was done, and we were all set to go.
So the bumpy road journey, began at 7pm (Indian time) and we headed towards Pazhani. Our first stop was at Shri Sangeetas. Allu puri and pani puri got the balls rolling. Trust me, they were really good! Well of course we topped up the order because they just weren't enough. Lol
And so our first long journey on the road began. Due to flight delay, we arrived Tiruchi and eventually arrived Pazhani late too. Apparently the hotel that we were supposed to check in, Vel's Court, had given up our reservation. Definitely we could have avoided this issue if we had called earlier, but I some how feel it's not the way how you run business. Then again, our agency is their regular customer. Damn. I actually thought people in India are smart, but only then I learned that many there, have poor manners, hospitality... Since we were really tired too, the reception was just lucky ane weren't in the mood to arggue.
We woke up next morning, fresh and ready to Pazhani temple, which was just a 5minutes walk from the hotel, but we eventually drove there cause parents definitely wouldn't be able to climb the stairs. Ama & apa took the wrench, while ane, anni and me we walked up to the peak. It was indeed a good workout. Haha..
At the temple, while waited long for ama apa and Segar, Sugi and I went around the temple to learn how big the temple is, actually. Half hour later, after they reached the hill top, we walked towards the special queue.
Many temples have free line(darshanam), and 50, 100, 150, 300 Rupee darshanam. Well it costs to overtake others... Sad, but that's how it works there, either you wait(which is normally least an hour) or you spend a little on what they call special darshan-fee. In certain temples, the special darshan queue brings you all the way to the entrance of the Moolasthanam, and the others, only till the main entrance of the temple. As for this temple, it lead us all the way to the Moolasthanam, but we could only see Lord Muruga for less than a minute. An extra 100Rupee and we would have been able to sit in front of the Moolasthanam for 5minutes and offer our prayer.
After praying, we walked back to the hotel, while Ama Apa & Segar had reached first. Then it was on the go, packed our stuffs, got it loaded onto the van while we had breakfast and we left to our next destination. This was our lifestyle for the next 2weeks.
Temples we covered includes;
1. Pazhani (6 Padai Veedu - Muruga)
2. Palamuthir Soalai (6 Padai Veedu - Muruga)
3. Azhagar Koil (Perumal)
4. Madhurai Meenakshi Amman (Kili & Madhurai Chokanathan)
5. Thiruchentur (6 Padai Veedu - Muruga)
6. Kanyakumari Bagavathi Amman (Mookuthi)
7. Rameshvaram (SIvan & 23 Wells to bathe)
8. Navagraham Kuil (Half sinked under the water)
9. Pillayar Patti (Vinayagar)
10. Tanjore Brigadeshwarar (Sivan)
11. Amman Temple
12. Velangkani (Mother Mary's Church)
13. Thirnallaru Saniswarar
14. Swami Malai (6 Padai Veedu - Muruga)
15. Budhan Temple (Budhan of Navagrahas)
16. Guru Temple (Guru of Navagrahas)
17. Chidambaram (Gold Nadarajah & Chidambara Ragasiyam - Sivalingam)
18. Swami Aurobindo Ashram
19. Hanumar Temple (Huge deity!!)
20. Thiruannamalai (Sivan - Thirukartigai celebration)
21. Raman Maha Rishi's Ashram (You may want to read up his books)
22. Sri Ekambaranathar Temple (Sivan)
23. Kanchi Kamashi Amman
24. Sri Kaalahasti Temple (Paathaala Pilayar & Sivan)
25. Thirupathi Balaji
26. Thirutani (6 Padai Veedu - Muruga)
27. Jambu Lingeshwara Temple (Sivan)
28. Sri Ranggam (Vishnu)
29. Uchi Pilayar
I think it's safe to conclude that:
1. Temples there are really big.
2. The temples are really, really big.
3. Most Murugan temples are on hill-top.
4. Their Goburams are very huge.
5. Temples with Gold goburam are doing okay there.(Good profit turn out)
6. Temples are as two story height, with a single piece of stones that make the pillar.
(Impressive?)
Guess these are one of the reasons people go India. I serioulsy enjoyed my trip. I shall write next on my personal experience...

Karma Yugaa
Hi all, this is something that is worth writing about.
So, listen up. (You could only read on though! -Lol)
Characters that you may come along here are,
Sureendran (Senior)
Shankara Rao (ARR fan)
Jivan (Mat Macho)
Navin (Asstnt Director)
Nagarajan (Mat Cool)
Vijayakanth (Captain!!)
Manoj Kumar (Kokki Kumar)
& of course myself.. ;-)
(Everyone above besides Sureen ane are my batch mates)
It initially started with my batch mate, Shankara Rao talking about being interested in taking a short film. He gradually developed his story based on a real life time event that he had witnessed. One night as we all went out for a movie, Shankar and Sureen had a serious and long discussion. It went on and on and on, till I had to say I really want to go back and only then did they 'adjourn' their meeting. The following day Sureen ane had come into campus and discuss with Shankar about the movie.
As time passed by, Shankar had decided to shoot a movie. The only green light he waited for was us, KAG to work with him to shoot this movie. Once everyone had agreed, he read the name of casts, gave each a responsibility and without us realising we were working on the movie. What began with a normal camera, blossomed into a handy-cam thanks to Manoj's uncle.
Me working on the dubbing, I was so ignorant about how easy I could have played my part, but had to wait for all the scenes to be completed, before I could proceed with the dubbing. Only as I was watching the compiled scene, did I realise how much of fun had I missed during the shooting. Me not being so mobile, it was difficult for me to ask them to bring me along, or for me to make an effort to go with them. I feel bad on that part, nevertheless I am just glad that the shooting went well. But of course, much problems were faced that time.
So, as time passed by shooting was all over, and dubbing was the only pending work. As time passed by nothing could be completely completed!! Something would turn up, and everything was like interlock, the whole progress got delayed, several times.
Then it was semester break, and practical. I was totaly so occupied with practical, that I could do nothing for Karma Yugaa nor PMH. Break was over, and much work had not been completed. My part too, but Manoj boy finished it all. Maybe the fact that I was far away, or he didn't want to bother me, he finished it all. I do feel guilty, but...
So day and night, Manoj and Sureen ane had been working to finsh the movie, and prepare for the launching. Finally, on the 22nd Aug 2009, Karma Yugaa was launched, at Grand Paragon Hotel, JB. The event was indeed very grand, besides a few drawbacks that overlooked and slipped in our mind.
Nevertheless, it was a great day. Finally, we have completed the movie, and even launched it! We can proudly say, we have a short movie, with our very own background score by Dr Chandra, our own Karma Yugaa theme song by Mc Bullet, with Subathra as the lead singer. We may not have the best product in town, but it is indeed the best of our product, that we have produced, despite of our financial status, lack of other necessary equipment and with ZERO knowledge to begin with.
So, hats off to the Karma Yugaa production team, launching team and K-Bros' Network.
God Bless...
