Wow! Time has surely gone by so fast. Just yesterday I can recall myself walking through the halls of Piper as a little Freshman. Now I'm a Senior and off to bigger and better things. One of my last memories would have to be the "Prom" I attended. Me and my friends decided not to go to the real prom, but instead make one of our own. We all decided to go to a Big Chutney Concert in the park. We didn't have to worry about spending hundreds of dollars on fancy dresses, crazy up-dos, new shoes and acrylic nails. We were able to spend our money wisely and at a place where we enjoyed the music and knew almost everyone there. After the concert we all went clubbing and I got to shake hands with one of my favorite Trinidadian artists, Ravi B! It was surely a night to remember! The things we did that night were unbelieveable, but we made the best out of everything and it's an event I will never ever forget!! CLASS OF '09!!!

WHERE IN THE WORLD...?
I would love to go back home to Guyana! I was born in Gerorgetown, Guyana, but left when I was only eight months old and never went back. Guyana is located in South America, right between Suriname and Venzuela. I've never been able to explore my home country and to do so would be a dream. I would finally be able to say that I lived life like how they did back home. In Guyana, there are many farms and each family usually has a cows, chickens and many other animals to tend to. It would be cool to actually take part in doing those things. Also, I could go and visit the gold and diamond fields as well as Katieur Falls. There would be so much to do and so much to explore if I ever get the chance to go back home!

A FREE POST: RAVI B.
Ravi Bissembhar, or better known as Ravi B. is the lead singer of the caribbean band "Karma." He took second place at the Soca Chutney Monarchs in Trinidad for his famous song "Dularie Nani." He is one of my favorite singers and very good looking too. I had the opportunity to meet him in person and shake hands with him. (You know I didn't wash my hand after that meeting with him!) Even though he is new to the Caribbean music industry he is very talented and has already won the hearts of many. I hope he continues with his many great chutney songs and that I get to see him again soon! I LOVE RAVI B.

SAFE "SEXTING?" NO SUCH THING, TEENS WARNED...
It's stated that young people do not think about the consequences of their actions. "What they think is an innocent joke or harmless flirting can be very damaging if it falls into the wrong hands," said NSW Community Service Minister Linda Burney in a statement. One girl even commited suicide when her nude pictures began circulating around her school. Officals urge that parents speak to their children about the matter and keep an eye on their Facebook and even their MySpace profiles. It's best to be safe, rather than sorry.

SENIOR PRANKS
Senior year was finally coming to an end, but no one knew what their senior prank was going to be. They had ideas of letting mice loose in the hallways or releasing crickets in the cafeteria. Those pranks were pretty fair, but the graduating class of 2009 wanted to do something a little more original. After school one day, a majority of the seniors huddled together and started planning on what they could do to leave their mark on the school. They came up with a week full of ideas. On the first day, they filled the drinking fountains with soap and as soon as someone turned it on, it began to foam and bubble out into the halls. For the next prank, they filled the air ducts with tuna and as soon as the air came on the next day, the school reeked of fish! Everyone had to be evacuated until the odor was gone. The third day was completely priceless. They hung bras and jock straps from a tree and just let them all sway in the wind. The principal of the school was getting fed up and made an announcement that whoever was responsible for these acts would not get to walk the stage for graduation. Of course, the seniors didn't pay much mind to what she had to say. Day four came around and the students decided to saran wrap one of the most hated teachers classrooms. All the chairs, desks and even the ceiling had saran wrap hanging from it. But the last prank the seniors pulled was completely genuine. They sent out text messages, myspace bulletins and whatever else they could to get the word out. It was 12:00pm and all senior eyes went to the clock. The plan was for all the seniors to get up and walk out of their classrooms! Some students chickened out, but almost all of them left their classrooms and walked out of school. Security just stood dumbfounded as the students walked right past them. The Principal came on the intercom and made an announcement that if anyone left, they would be suspended. Of course, she couldn't suspend the whole class, so she as well had to let them go. The class of 2009 definitely went down in the history books for this one! And of course no one was suspended and they all were able to walk the stage at graduation.

INTERESTING NEWS: DIVORCE THROUGH TEXT MESSAGE
For those that want to avoid the confrontation of a mean and nasty divorce, you can now get it done through a simple text message. In Malaysia they have now made it valid to divorce your spouse through a text message. The government's adviser on religious affairs, Mahathir Mohammed, says along as the message is clear and unambiguous, it is valid under Islamic Sharia Law. Dr Abdul Hamid Othman, of New Straits Times daily newspaper, said that "SMS is just another form of writing." That why it is legible to do it this way as well. The man who first sent the text message, Mr. Shamsudin sent the message saying, "If you do not leave your parents' house, you'll be divorced." Just as quickly as it was sent, the marriage had been annulled. It may seem very brief, but even in Islamic religion, a man can say "talaq" (I divorce you) three times and the couple will be divorced. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/3100143.stm

A ROTI SHOP DISASTER!
Dhlawattie had just gotten off the phone with the vending manager and he had given her permission to open the "Dhalwattie's Roti Shop" at the Chutney Show on May 9. She had gotten all her flour, baking soda and water needed to make the roti's. All she needed now was to hire employees to cook them for her. Dhalwattie hired three young adolesents to come work for her, two girls and one boy. Finally, May 9th had arrived. As she was setting up her booth, she recieved a phone call. "Ellllloooo!" she answered joyfully. "Oh, Parrot-batti! It's you gyal! How you do?" As the conversation continued she noticed a young lady and two boys walking past her booth, but the girl was giving her a wicked look. Dhalwattie stared back in confusion. "I don't know where these lazy chillldren are, they were supposed to come help me set up," she said into the reciever of her phone. "Oh wait, I tink I see one now. Lawwwd look how she watching me funny. Gyal I will call you back laatah...tek care...bye." And she hung up the phone. "Aye you gyurl over there, you think you can get away from working? You all get over here now!" The girl smiled widely and called her two friends behind her to go into the kitchen. There Dhalwattie gave them their uniforms and ordered them to start making the roti's. The crowd at the gate was getting overwhelming. One of the girls friend, asked if he could go get the equpiment from the truck. Dhalwattie sweetly replied, "Aye bai, you nah do nothing, stay right here and finish your cookin, let one of dem gyal go and get the stuff." She sends the girl out of the park to go get the equipment and when she comes back, the girl turned into a boy! "How did that gyal turn into a bai(boy)?!" She exclaimed. Dhalwattie figured something fishy was going on. She turned around and she saw three people walking toward her and they were already dressed in chef's uniforms. After putting two and two together, she realized she had been bamboozled! She picked up a belna(rolling pin) and was going to go after the three imposters. But before she could, the three of them had dropped the uniforms and had to run out of the kitchen. Dhalwattie said some nasty things under her breath, but let it go. The children were gone and there was nothing she could do about it. This was going to make on heck of a story to tell her friends!

STRANGE NEWS

The leader of this Ministry, Queen Antoinette, is charged with ordering the mother to deny the child of food. She claimed that the child was a "demon" all because he did not give thanks for his food. According to authorities, after the child died they placed him on the couch and danced around his body, trying to make everyone believe that they could rise him from the dead. When they realized that he was not returning from that state, they packed his body along with moth balls and fabric softner sheets in a suitcase and relocated to Philidelphia. Javon's remains were found in a shed behind the home of an elderly man who had befriended the Ministry's members. Ramkisoon recieved a 20 year prison sentence.

AN ARRANGED MARRIAGE...
The day she agonized ever since she was a young woman had finally come. It was her wedding day. For most, a wedding is a joyous occasion to celebrate the joining of two lovers. But for Kaminee it was a decision that was going to ruin her life. In the Hindu religion, all marriages were arranged. There was no such thing as a love marriage, but instead your parents decided who you were going to marry. Sometimes even before you were born.
The groom they picked for her was a wealthy man, with a high social status. He was a huge business tycoon, but his personality was horrible. He was a heavy drinker, a smoker, and he had another woman on the side by the name of Shalena. He even told his new bride to be that he wouldn't give up his mistress, even if they were married. Kaminee tried to warn her parents about the man they had chosen for her, but they believed she was only trying to get out of the marriage.
Kaminee had no choice. She was going to have to marry the man her parents chose for her, despite what he was truly like. That even meant she had to give up the one person in her life who meant the world to her. He was the one who she truly wanted to marry. Her mystery lover went by the name of Dev and they had been together for five years, but her parents never knew. If they found out, they would've killed her! So she had to sacrafice what she had and do what made her parents happy.
Finally the wedding day had come. As she sat in her room, staring down at her henna adored hands, there came a knock at her balcony window...............TO BE CONTINUED...............(in another blog story)

THROWBACK: DO YOU REMEMBER TAMAGOTCHI?
One of the best toys to come out in the 90's was the Tamagotchi. The Tamagotchi was a computerized pet that could live comfortably on a key chain or in the pocket of a child. It is the size of a small egg and contains an LCD screen. Here one can feed, play, and even clean up after it, once it's done its business. When this little toy first came out, it was a huge success in Japan and when it hit North America, kids went crazy for it!
The Tamagotchi was also a competition between friends. The better you took care of your pet, the higher it's status would be. The amount of times you played with it and how well you looked after it was recorded into the digital device. But if you happened to be a bad pet owner, your pet would surely suffer and than die. Thus, causing you to have to reset the toy and start all over again to build up it's happiness and health. This taught a cruel, but valuable lesson to most young children who happened to leave the toy in their book bag for the weekend. Tamagotchi's came in a number of colors and had many different characteristics. This was definitely a pet no one could ever forget!
I personally chose this toy because I grew up with one. I remember how fun it was to feed it cookies and ice cream and than clean up it's mess. Sometimes I would purposely overfeed it and it would get sick on me. But that was no problem. All I had to do was give it some medicine and it was happy again. The best part for me was watching the pet grow up and launching off in a space shuttle, completing that generation......
