I wonder how is it like when we go thru days without talking to anyone. Its like a mental torture is it? The feel of emptiness, the feel of being left out, being completely invisible to nature. Without any type of sound wave moving along you. It would feel like in outer space right. The force of gravity cuts down sound wave. Yet still its a physically and emotionally pain full to bare with. Recent day's I went thru such a scenario. Well its not like ive been left out in the space. But eventually landed in such a scenario that im pretty much sure all family men will land In one day. Hopeless decision sometimes comes in the form or enemy within. Well i feel too tired to describe that in details here. But one thing for sure. I do stand on my own term. My pride and ego control ably sometimes comes with the decision that I take. And im very proud of that!

First of all i would like to make a strict statement, this has nothing to do with me what so ever. I'm not converting to any religion. In-fact i hate this sudden skipping of religion. I'm a staunch believer and follower of Hinduism till my soul left my body!
Religious conversion seems like have became a popular thing nowadays. Funny part is the reason for the conversion seems to me pretty absurd, full of rubbish reasons. Parents death, Marriage failure, Inner peace and lots of lots of crappy reasons. Im suprised with all this reasons. Well it is every man's independent decision on which path to follow in his life. But for me its a wide change of life. and the person who does convert seems happy with this.
For me religion is not only a spiritual path, its a way of life. Its a pure step that leads a man thru out his life cycle. Just imagine, since birth our parents brought us up in one religion then out of sudden we embrace another ones.. So is our life complete in this case? Yes arguing on this will take the topic more deeper and unwanted debate. But my simple question, is it necessary? What the god on the other religion had done to infuriate a person to jump to the other? Who to blame in this case? or does this an action blamable?
All this questions keep flowing in my mind. Im not a person hatred towards any particular religion. But its just the ridiculous logic which keeps me in an argumentative state.
This post is for Yuvan. Such a bright musical composer of Tamil cinema. Well this is his life and his choice, who am i to argue. All this is just my 2 cents.
All expression on this post is of my personal opinion, it is not written in any sense or way of hating any religion, attacking any persons fundamental way or denying any persons right. To the wannabe attacker of this post, please take note!

Another year, another occasion.. another celebration or should i say prayer day. Well its clearly misinterpretation involve here. Today is Thaipusam day in hmm most of the country where Tamil peoples are. For me Thaipusam widely is misinterpreted as a celebration by many surprisingly! as its more towards prayer to a specific god.. Lord Murugan. I'm surprised my colleges are telling me "hey happy thaipusam" well i wondered to myself.. what should i do? go shopping? buy new clothes? visit friends and family? eat and sleep? Hahaha its a prayers day for the god and nothing to celebrate about! Well that's what happen when you live in a multi racial society that lacks the understanding of certain culture. For this year, its a somber day for me. As i did not participate for the prayers at any point. Why? Since my fathers demise, its in Hinduism rules that one should not observe any prayers, celebrate any festive, or make a large scale celebration & etc. My father passed away last year June so till June 2014 (which is exactly a year), no celebration or prayers of any sorts are to be done by me. Well since there is a rule, its better for me not to break them. I'm pretty sure there are some intangible reasons behind this. I missed the prayers to my lovely god lord murugan. Well for now im targeting next year for a better prayers and offerings for him.
What im doing this year? well sitting in the office and typing this blog.. Hahaha. Supposingly i should just sit at home but i rather come to office to forget all the thaipusam hype and celebration prayers that im missing right now.

Seriously im not against the freedom of speech or the freedom of expression example movies. But what if a movie goes against the limit. Is it called freedom of expression or even contemporary art?
One of the movie that i found extremely insulting is a tamil movie namely "naveena saraswathy sabatham". In the name of comedy the movie insults Hindu gods to the core!! How worst this directors are until they found messing with religious sentiment in comical genre very good? I felt very sad with the movie and cursed not only the director, but together with Tamil Nadu censor board. They allowed the film! Wow! Why did they banned "Bombay" in which they said insulting muslim religion? Wouldn't this movie regarded same way? Why the bias?? Do they need to wait till someone make a formal complain or few peoples to protest then they will take action? Good job Tamil Nadu government! To my surprise, the tamil nadu people are quiet with the movie. It's really fascinate me.
To the director 'K. Chandru' of Naveena saraswathy sabatham, if you by chance saw this blog, my message to you, please don't come up with another such stupid movie, please dont play with religious sentiment again. I know you tried very hard to copy the english movie 'Hangover'. Seriously nothing so comedy about it!

Today is ponggal festival in Malaysia. Even thou its not really recognised in malaysia like how it was in India. The festive is celebrated in small scale in Malaysia. This year my celebration is as minimal as possible. More to say just some prayers at home, eat vege foods prepared by my wife and watch tv programs.

Whether a good fragrant perfume or an expensive dress and etc.. Well yesterday I decided something diffrent.

Its small nice and elegant. Perfect for her hand. She likes the watch thou.. Well, Happy Birthday dear! :)

Its just been 7 days from the new calendar year. New days born to remind man kind, new tasks, new path, new discovery awaiting us with every second of the clocks tick. I had rather agitated day as 7 days pass by. I hate 2013 very much, for one sole reason. For me its the year of death. So much death ive seen on the year alone. Terrifyingly many to count off personally. I wished for a peacefull year 2014 to be. But not as its comes by. Early morning yesterday i had a shocking news from my mom. My cousin sisters husband passed away in India while working on a surgery for liver transplant. He was a great guy, nice to chat with, straight to the point and a peacefull looking guy. He had a severe liver detoriation problem for several years. After a donor came up to donate her liver, he the donor and my cousin sis went to India for the transplant. Unfortunately god prefers him to be by his side rather then to wake alive. Whats more sad was he just became a father for a beautifull baby girl.
Sometimes i couldn't really understand why our life is so cruel. Why do we born? Why do we need to spend so little time on this life? Why we had to endure painful life and die in the midst of happiness? Such a bad life indeed.
Dedicated to my bro-in-law Kumaresan Gunalan (1980-2014). Rest in Peace bro!
Thilagam, please be strong! you have to endure the life for the sake of your child.

Watched Pizza-II - The Villa two days ago. I brought the DVD as the movie was out somewhere back in November. So ive missed to watch it at the cinema. Such an interesting movie. It was supposingly an horror movie, but for me its more towards a thriller.. a suspense a like. The movie was well crafted with supernatural and spiritual twining in between. Basic story of a son found that he inherited a villa from his father who died mysteriously few days back. Since he lost some law suits of another issue, he lost his current house and left only the villa which he owns now. The happy guy goes and stays at the villa where his life starts to behave strangely for him. The mystery is closely untangled with the help of his child hood friend. The key is on the painting where each occurrence was painted in the past. Its really chillingly spooky enough. I loved the BGM score of the movie. Hats off to Santosh Narayanan. On the climax, its a bit complicated to understand. Wonder what the director trying to prove here. For me its like, trustworthy relationship can sometimes stabs back on our own. Complicated eh? Well the movie is a must to watch! After watching the movie, there is one song that keeps me humming till now, its part of the discovery of the mystery on the film. Ive added the youtube link as below. Enjoy.
Pizza II - Villa - Song: Kanum Gnyanam
Overall i rate this movie (3 out of 5 star)
Goodbye 2013!

Rest in peace Mr. Mandela! Your effort for the anti-apartheid in African nation will never be forgotten.
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

The vacation to Bali was nice, we enjoyed pretty much there and had a good time eventhou bali was not as good as how Phuket was (our honeymoon), it hold some interesting memories. The thing that amused me in Bali is the strong essence of Balinese Hindu culture in everything of their life. They are very simple, moderate & religiously pious people. I can see that they have temple on every single house! Wow!! temple on every single house!? Thats amazing to me as its not what one could expect to happen or see in Malaysia. One thing for sure is i'm very proud with the importance of Hindu culture in Bali for each and everything. I wish things are the same in Malaysia, unfortunately for Geo-political reason that's never gonna happen. Apart from few shopping's and sightseeing Bali is truly a fantastic place. Had some share of pretty bad experience as well. One for its food (maybe wrong choice of meal i guess) & second my wife got stung by jellyfish out at the beach in Kuta. Well she is recovering now. Other then that its a good trip whole together. I will visit Bali again maybe in few years time if time and situation persists :)

Two days back, me and my wife thought of watching a good movie and off we go to nearby cinema. Back few years i used to wonder, how tamil cinema is going to evolve in few years time. Cause each time a movie comes up i would be disappointed with same ridiculous story line, couple of low packing songs, comedy etc.. But the trend seems changing nowadays fast paced movie, stream down story line, nice background songs, new genre of comedies.. Wow.. Indian cinema has really evolve then! Good to know.. Irandam Ulagam fall on this genre.. what else can i say. What a movie this is! I just wish Steven Spielberg watch this movie. So nice to see improvements like this. Graphics are phenomenal! Superbly done. Overall il rate this movie 8.5 over 10 for its excellent graphics, background score and story line!

We had a blast watching those movies.. finally an exciting moment with my cousins.. after the movie we had straight to a thai restaurant nearby for a dinner.

Missing my family a lot.. more over missing the one day that I wait for the year...deepavali a lot.. Life is diffrent now a days, wonder when the tables will change, how can I go back to the glorious day of my life.. fun time with my cousins.. all the never ending foods, funs, fire crackers, new clothes, temple prayers, the hype and the joy.. ;(
on Thursday, October 31, 2013
This year the deepavali environment seems quiet for me. Unlike previous year deepavali celebration, where new clothes, visits to cousins house and never ending fun times took place, this year it is quiet for me.. my fathers death is the main thing. For hindus generally in a family once a family member passed away they will avoid any celebrations and generally any type of events for a year as a symbol of respect for the deceased. Thats what im going thru now. Well till next year somewhere around june till my fathers 1st year prayers are done, generally no any celebration of sorts will we participate. Thats why.. silent deepavali it is..

I'm getting awful on blogging nowadays, one good example.. my last blog was Aug-2 which is way 2 months back. Hahh.. im trying my best to allocate small piece of my buzy time for a little posts on the blog, but finding a good time is really awful thing to do nowadays. I need to be get back again to my blogging as blogging is the only way i could express myself in this jungle of many non-understandable human beings..

How agonizing was that! It made me wonder, is this the club that ive been idolized for so long?? The club that lost its fang, fading into the back curtain of emirates stadium. Geezz, who to be blamed? Club's billionaire owners? Shareholders? The manager, Arsene Wenger? or simply the change of attitude of the players? its very hard to pin point this but one thing for sure, Arsenal FC is crumbling down inch by inch. Hope someone or something can change this situation! I cant think of supporting another club. Hopefully the club can be back to its previous Glory! Can it?

Im sure many have seen rugrats the Nickelodeon cartoon series of small babies with their pesky naughtyness in a cute way. Well today while surfing thru, i found a site with very creative idea of showing how the 80's series of nickelodean cartoon character will be in their 20's, grown up, matured and visibly younger teen.
Wow, very very creative indeed. Check out the link below. I felt awsome with the idea!! hahaha just imagine how other comic characters will be in this time from the 80's, few i could think of, sesame street, teenage mutant ninja turtles, captain America, tellytubbies. Hahaha imagination without boundary indeed!! :)

Completed my fathers final prayers to rest his soul in peace. The last couple of days I was extremely buzy with arrangements and stuff. All went well. I must thank the dedication and support given by my relatives countless of days on helping us arrange and book stuffs for us. Without them we are generally doomed. Happy at last.

He is 65 years old, with a medical history of diabetic and hypertension but withoutany history of heart based complication. His death is due to heartattack. I was beside him as he breathed for the last time. I was on tears during the funeral. For me the tears is not for the love or his affection but rather a sign of thanks for giving me an initial, giving me a symbol, bringing me to this world and of course tears of thinking my mothers situation.. husbandless.
Dad
at many times, i thought bad and act bad towards you.
at many times, i raised my voice towards you.
at many times, i acted selfishly ignoring your emotion.
at many times, i disobey you
at many times, i disrespect you
at many times, i hurt your feelings
for all those i can only pray for appologies. I just wish we will meet again some day, some place
and we could make things up.. please forgive me.. and rest in peace.
Your son, Gauthemen.

Planned big but in the end crumbled with multiple unexpected things. I expected to have a wonderfull weekend with my mother at my house over the weekend. Just because of that I had planned and prepared for almost 2 week's. But out of suddent in an unexpected twist everything goes beyond what I dreamt. Now I feel this is the worst weekend and the worst planned event ever. I wondered can I go thru another round of planning spree again?! Certainly no. Not in near time.. here goes my miserable weekend... Crush crush crushed..
