Dhadke Jiya || Aloo Chaat

What do you do when your entire family is against the bride of your choice? Do you replace your family? Or do you replace the bride? Or do you make an aloo-chaat of your life?

I first heard this song at my cousin wedding the video guy inserted this song.. into the video clip, then in my cousin Dog's wedding I hardly knew what the lyrics meant... but I was mesmerized blown away.... then I found the lyrics.. and found someone who could explain to me the lyrics

"A soft number that has melody at its core, 'Dhadke Jiya' is the one for a long walk with your loved one on a moonlit night"

I am still blown away....

Dhadke Jiya Lyrics

Dekho zara kitna haseen hai,
Phir yeh samaa hai naa,
Jee le zara ek pal mila jo,
Tanhai ka hai naa..
Wo hi hasna hasana,
Kuch keh ke yu sharmaana,
Kuch baaten yu hi aankhon se hi kar jaana,
Achcha lagta hai yeh chehra takte jaana,
Ab aaj gaye ho to naa phir jaana,
Yahi dua yuhi sada…ohhhwooo…
Tere liye dhadke jiya, dhadke jiya…

Yeh raasta gum hoga,
Yeh darr tumhe hai naa?
Main aas paas hi kahin hu,
Itna yakeen to hai naa?
Teri har aahat ka chup chupke peeche peeche aana,
Mujhe tanhai mein tera ek lamha de jaana,
Shayad yeh lamha bhi phir khuda ne,
Tere mere milne ka socha hai bahana, haaaa…
Yahi dua yuhi sada…ohhhwooo…
Tere liye dhadke jiya, dhadke jiya…
Ohhooo..aahhhhaaa…

Palke yu jhuki to kuch hua tha,
Yeh pal jaise rukk sa gaya tha,
Mere sapno mein bhi har baar tu aana,
Ab aaj gaye ho to naa phir jaana,
Yahi dua yuhi sada…ohhhwooo…
Tere liye dhadke jiya, dhadke jiya, dhadke jiya,
Ohhooo..aahhhhaaa…dhadke jiya…

I saw a rainbow today morning

.. I was getting out of the car and looked in the sky and I smile.... paused to look at it for a while appreciating it for all it's worth



A dear friend of mine is getting registered today said to me rainbow mean hope... i replied we all need hope.. when all else fails Hope is all we got.

Still it was lovely to gaze upon it

To roll back the years....

Makcik is coming down!!!!! The gang is summoned.. bugle-horning, clarion-blowing, time to meet up.........

Stupidity breeds Stupidity

When Saddam Hussein was no longer allies with the US the media was quickly stated portraying him as a bad guy but when he was in US good books all the bad thing were looked away ... not getting political.....one of the telling images replayed again and again was at the end of CNN news a footage showing Saddam brandishing a guy and firing into the air. Time and time again, an image planted in the mind of people.

Another image was 9/11

Another image was Anwar Ibrahim black eye

Time and time again images like these constantly used to further a cause.


I submit to you 2 more nominees for Stupidity breeds Stupidity section of images that will come back again and again to haunt the powers that be






This is a little more compelling

KLPAC - Drama - BOTTOM TOP (RE-STAGE)

Firstly - Brian Rashwan thanks for inviting me and taking me there... I had not been to plays and theater a long time and it was indeed refreshing to be watching it again.

Also the Appam session was worth every juicy drop, the least I could do is pick up the tab


Secondly - Advisory: recommended for mature audiences only which is posted on the web is very correct.




Well this is KLPAC at night love the way the building lights up.. took me a while to get this shot...




Doors open at 8.30 show starts at 8.45 and there was a crowd.... we were "GUEST" lol




BOTTOM TOP (RE-STAGE)

Presenter : klpac
Director : Joe Hasham
Writer : Mark Beau de Silva
Featuring : Dato' Faridah Merican & Mark Beau de Silva

SYNOPSIS: BOTTOM TOP is a story about a 52-year-old mother, Bertha, who is about to re-marry. As she prepares the guest list with her son, Melvin, they screen through the people in their lives to invite as guests for the limited 150 seats at the Oversea Restaurant. Secretly, Bertha is trying to find a seating partner and, ultimately, a partner for her son and suggests various people in her life. Melvin, however, thinks he has better taste.

The stage was simple as seen below but we managet to get good seat, not prime but god seats so it was wonderful.




Bertha is a mother re-marrying again and start making a dinner invite list with her son Melvin who is gay and trying to make him bring a partner (gay) to the dinner, the laughter and jokes and statements as the mother and son bond is explored and revisited.

So being mummy dearest who loves her son and a son that loves the mother (mummy knows he is gay but calls it dan lain lain lol) she suggests men as the market butcher’s son and an unmarried distant uncle who is suspected to be gay.

In between the laughter, I feel for Melvin, of the social and political and realities of life by being gay and trying to find a partner, the pain and joys of a partners coming or leaving all in between innuendos and punchlines that leaves you laughing till tears comes out.

As a parent, as a mummy she wants what best for her kid, accepting he is gay and moving forward talking about her experiences with men and while he shares bout his flings...

In short its worth watching..

Juinor Growing up - washing shoes time

As children grow up we slowly got to make them take responsibility and make them do tasks... setting up a time table and and delegating task such as helping out with the garbage, laundry, lots of other simple chores. Its never easy because they are kids. Some situations are difficult some are easy. Children want to be independent and Jnr Vadai is no different

So Last Sat Junior started washing his own shoes for school... I must say he did a good job and slowly put into practice this to be done weekly. Slowly in away he will realize how people around him are doing things for him and the value it bring. Thank god its no a struggle just a manner of presentation of the chore to make it fun for him

Flatline anyone?

Back in the hey days of IRC, people of all kinds of characters and shapes and sizes used to walk in and out after a while, the need to identify one self with an ID that that ID stuck with you when ever your are online. Soon that became synonymous with you when your cyber friends became real friends. Before darthvadai I was defcon and in certain IRC channels we were regulars meeting up people form IRC was norm, not like in suych meeting we wear name tags with our ID name but it was nice to put a face to an ID.

As I said in my opening line you make good friends and bad friends some move on some move forward, just like everyone of us life does go on. Having said that I have made a lot of friends and enemies (hey no one is perfect) form my online friedns. Some of my best friends are frens I have met and got to know via the internet. So after bout 4-5 years to bump into an internet 'fren' is amazing

Last nice after my social hockey club meeting, we went to SID's, my first time there but it was a simple place at Bangsar South. I got to thank Faren and Roy for showing me the place and the 5 of us with 2 others had an interesting broad range of conversations relating from social hockey, marriage to marketing and BPL etc etc

The I went to the gents.. I saw a familiar figure, I was thinking to myself ? could it be? nah!!! the other person did not recornise me and I went back to my group.

Later on the night I butmped into the person again and I prompted the question...Hiya are you so and so from a certain IRC channel??

YESSSSSSSS

I met flatline!!!

Facebook

Yeah yeah I have facebook and in one of the most amazing thing I have come across across facebook is the unexplainable ability of network efficiency and the craziest way to bump into people


I have met school mates of mine I have not met in over 20 years Thiaga and Jothes, friends of friends and relatives and far distant relatives.

Today I was elated to meet an old friend from the Taman Gembira days, Jackie. How? Well here I was again commenting on Gerrard's page and suddenly the name came up and an unmistakable surname. Lobehold after a flurry of msgs we added each other.

I am like WOW amazing

Time flies but memories remain, and there are worthwhile memories

From the NST

Meanwhile, there were few changes when the Selangor HA held its Biennial General Meeting yesterday.

Datuk Salamon Selamat was returned as president, while the new deputy president is Datuk Subahan Kamal. There were two new veeps in P. Kuganesan and Abdul Rahim Ahmad, while Kerpal Singh and Taram Singh were retained. Zainal Abidin Ismail was retained as secretary. Surjit Singh was the new Independent member

SHA & me

For the record, I was elected as a Vice President of Selangor Hockey Association today.

A letter I wrote to a fellow blogger

Dear Sir,

I did not write to you at this juncture to ask to cover SHA but merely engage in a dialogue on how we can administratively, productively over come camps cliques and try to steer the council forward progressively

I was thinking with you vast experience in looking at other organization, state, club and at country level maybe you could share guidance and idea in an interesting chat. Engage peopel like your self and other sports people on current issues facing the sports freternity today.

I have been a long admirer of your blog and the basis in which you write it. I am not here to criticize or cause hurt. I have been in hockey all my life as a player, umpire and administrator both at club, state and national level, I am excellent at what I do, I know the paperwork, I know the administrative and the scope of work and always learning new areas each time,

But today I was brought in to the other sided of the coin as an elected official sat a higher level. While the fundamentals are the same the challenges are different.

SHA btw is Selangor Hockey Association

There is so much wrong in the manner we look at thing, the manner we carryout activities that I am not sure where to start, I agree this task is not all mine to burden but there is a weight responsibility, maybe I can call it conscious that everything not done seem to be important enough to be done.

There is the constitution that need to be "upgraded" to current times

There is the competitions committee that need to start running a league that had been dormant for 3-4 years

There is the finance committee that need to bring in fund and weather thru this current economic conditions

There is the development committee that should not limit it self to developing players but infrastructure that is decaying, not well maintained and being closed down

Thank you for your wishes and I will extend to you the list of officials as soon as possible.


Darthvadai

SHA - again

Once every two years we go thru this real life drama of elections... todays article in the NST is no different.. once again SHA is having their elections and both sides have approached me to come in and help out... still not made up my mind...

I have thru time been in many positions in hockey at school, district, club, state, national and international level watching this would be nothign new... all this horse trading only happen weeks before the AGM till then it be all quiet and nodding heads.

Are people really interested in change

AMERICAN MILITARY MARCH When Johny Comes Marching Home

Been searching this theme song for a long time






Lyrics

The original lyrics as written by Gilmore, are:[2]


When Johnny comes marching home again
Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give him a hearty welcome then
Hurrah! Hurrah!

The men will cheer and the boys will shout
The ladies they will all turn out
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.

The old church bell will peal with joy
Hurrah! Hurrah!
To welcome home our darling boy,
Hurrah! Hurrah!

The village lads and lassies say
With roses they will strew the way,
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.


Get ready for the Jubilee,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give the hero three times three,
Hurrah! Hurrah!

The laurel wreath is ready now
To place upon his loyal brow
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.


Let love and friendship on that day,
Hurrah, hurrah!
Their choicest pleasures then display,
Hurrah, hurrah!

And let each one perform some part,
To fill with joy the warrior's heart,
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.

Hindu New Year - Things that Make you go

Well its the Hindu New Year thought I would go out on a limb and shake the whole tree


If the Hindu New time and time again falls in April why does Deevali and Thaipusam shift all around the calendar instead of a fixed date?

If you return from a funeral house you got to come in from the back, what you live in an apartment?

If life and death is part and parcel of evolution then why can you go to a temple to celebrate a birth hmmmmmm

I better stop here lol

A woman missed her shark fin soup in Hong Kong 我要食魚翅呀

Jnr Vadai 8th Birthday

A gift he been yearning for

You talking to me???

2 unique things today

Firstly

Happy Birthday Junior Vadai

He turns 8

as a baby3rd birthday

3rd birthday


Also I saw something unique

Tiny and dying but still-powerful stars called pulsars spin like crazy and light up their surroundings, often with ghostly glows. So it is with PSR B1509-58, which long ago collapsed into a sphere just 12 miles in diameter after running out of fuel.

And what a strange scene this one has created.

In a new image from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, high-energy X-rays emanating from the nebula around PSR B1509-58 have been colored blue to reveal a structure resembling a hand reaching for some eternal red cosmic light.

Red represents low-energy X-rays, the medium range is green, and the most energetic ones are colored blue. The blue hand-like structure was created by energy emanating from the nebula around they dying star PSR B1509-58. The red areas are from a neighboring gas cloud called RCW 89.

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,

Macbeth:
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Macbeth Act 5, scene 5, 19–28
