Merry Christmas to One and All

Ya MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ONE AND ALL JUNTA...MAY THE XMAS HAD BEEN  FULL OF JOY, HAPPINESS AND BOOZE(THE MOST IMPORTANT THING :P)

My xmas had been fun.....the day Christ the allmighty was born, we were also celebrating....the pics down wud be no doubt a full proof of the same....

Lets start it up with the bottle count.....Afternoon urs trully tried a new brand of beer...Moonberg...its been in the market for a good 4-5 mnths.....but i tried it only on the blessed occasion of the birth of Jesus Christ....The verdict is that its good...good keeping in mind that lately I have stopped liking Nile and have been switching to Club...so now I have an alternative as well...so 2 bottles there..and appreciated.

The evening started as usual.....there was this guy going away to visit home....so we had to give him a worthy sent-off....so the party started at around 9.00pm with a bottle DSP Black whiskey...and it goes on into the nite...when at the stroke of midnite...our travellee boy has a thought that we should all go to bowling...

Accepted..we all drive till there, but the time we are all onto our second bottle of DSP...and so I do bowling for the first time and dont really regret doing it..its fun...and nevertheless I got two full houses of 10..so aint I cool for a first timer!!!!

The DSP is 3/4 into us and we r still going strong.....the round gets over...the travellee boy bets with a gang of pakis there 50Ks that our group will win bowling with them...which in no given scenario we could had...coz in a group of 5, 2 r newbies to bowling and the other 3, who r relatively experience are too boozed up to even throw the bowl...so the travellee boy losesand in the agst loathes us and continues the bowling spree.....so the all of us leave without him..

Theres more to the drama...on the road we are caught by cops..we could had guessed that but we were dumb enough to fall into their clutches in a festive weekend....when they would had been looking for all the luck to catch some muindi (indian) boozed up and cough up money!!!!!

This coupled up by the fact that the guy driving us had like 4 large whiskeys.But fortunately for us and unfortunately for the cops, the alcohol meter wont show any reading at all...after 4 attempts of blowing into the tube of the great Ugandan Police innovation called alcohol meter, we were out scotfree...

So there we go home and off we go...the remains of the DSP are finished into a large of 3 people....and so ends the adventurous night.....

So the count stands for me 2 Moonbergs + 320 ml of DSP Black Whiskeys for the xmas eve...and I m fine....

Now I m waiting for today evenings celebrations and the New Year Eve!!!!!!!

Till that time....Happy blogging and Happy Weekend and have a equally happy week ahead!!!!!

Cheers

THAT WAS THE FIRST SHOT OF THE DAY...IT HAD TO HAVE ME..
THAT WAS MY START AT ALLEYGATOR @ GARDENCITY....IT WAS FUN..IT WAS MY FIRST TIME...I BROKE MY BOWLING VIRGINITY..AND DID SCORE HUGE TIME....COZ I GOT 2 PERFECT SHOTS
THE FIRST TIME I GOT THE PERFECT 10...IT JST FEELS SO GOOD....

THA WAS ME SEEMINGLY BEFORE THE SECOND PERFECT 10...CANT REMEMBER CORRECTLY....WAS TOO BOOZED UP BY THAT TIME!!!!
THAT IS THE REMAINS OF THE START FOR THE NIGHT (CANT SAY EVENING AS IT WAS LIKE 2.00 IN THE MORNING)
THAT IS THE GROUPIE WITHOUT ME..COZ THERE HAD TO BE SOMEONE TO DO THE HONOURS OF TAKING THE PIC ATLEAST

THAT WAS MY ATTEMPT AT TAKING A PIC INCLUDING ME....DIDNT GO QUITE WELL AYE!!!!

Having alcohol is not necessarily a bane!!!!!

Some people just don’t believe me. Is it bad to have a bit of liquor once in a while?

Well, if you ask me its not very bad. Ya true if it becomes a regular habit it can become a bane. But then who is planning to make it an habit. This midweek post is to clarify that position. Liquor is not my weakness, it is a mean of passing the stupid time in the evening that could drive you crazy in loneliness. Its nothing but a mean to keep me away from the other more lucrative (for them) evils like casinos, smoking, gambling and some others which is better not taken up and discussed on this blog.

In other things, the week has progressed pretty bland to be in a sense that business has been slack for this time of the year. The endblame being that Christmas is round the corner and the purchasing power of the people is at an all time low. Well ya it seems to be correct as the logic is absolutely correct.

I haven’t been able to explore much of the town and the countryside, which means that the ‘picture this’ element of my blog will remain empty and will not have much of an additions for the time being. But I sincerely hope to be coming up soon with some pics of the environs here. There have been few which have captured my imagination and have time and again been tried to be captured by the lens of my cam.

Nevertheless, that sums up most of the last two days and tiredness and fight with life. In other things I have been going through many a blogs of Ugandans and East Africans as a whole and I have found many to be very interesting as well as humorous indeed. I m planning on a separate entry on that ones on their qualities and the fun part in them in the later part of the week.

Amidst all this happening, I failed to mention an apparent milestone. My blog turned a year old on the same day I turned a year older approximately a week earlier. I started this blog exactly the same day as my birthday. And at this point of time I would be proud that my blogging experience has survived for a year with a 390 footfalls and 51 posts. Isnt that just great and marvelous? welll it is for me!!!!!!!

Cheers

The week gone by, some old stuff and me!!!

I m totally out for this one..hope its available in India...try it out. m not marketing the comp. but its sincerely good

It has been a good week for me personally. Did some ok business in time of a slack month in midst of a very tightening economy (ya even in Africa, even I thought it wont happen here).

Oh ya I m in love again, for a change its a Chocolate this time. Its just mind blowing, its bya vague coinincidence that i tasted it, but I m not regreting it and totally loving it. I hope I would continue to get it and be relishing it time and again!!!!!!

Then I have been abstaining for 4 days now. FROM LIQUOR....ya I know it does sound like that virginity crap i wrote on my gmail accnt. "Virginity is not Dignity, its lack of Oppurtunity" (i plagarised it from someone so please dont sue me for it). But its true as well. Today's saturday and its like booze day. After a 4 days of saving yourself. It would be fun to booze today..wow!!..

Last week we had two very good sights here on the skys. One was Venus and Mars courting the moon and the other was the full moon day yesterday, which looked beautiful. They say the latter is the brightest day of the moon, which it surely looked like. I cudnt shoot a pic of that one (canon 470 isnt competent enuff for tat astrological stuff!!!!). The courting of Venus and Mars was even more beautiful but then that too had to be stored in your mind's eye!!!

Just recently I remembered something about writing love notes. It so happens that I have only written love notes twice in my entire life of two and a half decades. One happened to be in college where i wrote it for AN though anonymously through the same name as this blog RAPSSYS through a class notes session. I was sincerely stupid at that time and thought that something could work out with her, but didnt really try enough to get her and didnt pursue it much further, not even the friendship and valentines day card as well!!! anyways it was a long time back (way back in my first year of college AD 2001) and even AN is married since and has a beautiful kid. 

The second time also incidently i wrote it to another AN and it was a poem. It was good and it was the last poem of my life since. Havent been able to think in poetic terms and havent been able to imagine poetically. I wont comment on that one, but she has also grown up and so have I and that too was a long time (in my second year of college AD 2002).

So the reason for writing this was to just freshen up some old memories. The sole reason I upkeep a blog is to keep the memories fresh, revealing details after details of my short life, so that in future I could read it and be read and have a hearty laugh together. 

In other things, today is Saturday, I love saturdays, the mornings better than the evenings. The anticipation of a holiday the day after while coming to office in the morning is a feeling worth enjoying. I just love it. Thats the reason the blogrites are written on a saturday. Its a lovely day, one which is to be enjoyed and cherished. And according to me its better than a Sunday!!!

Cheers

have a great weekend and a equally great week ahead
