All those who know me well enough, understand very well that when I say I am a party animal I’m not being entirely truthful. And that is correct but for those occasions when the control over the senses is lost or rather let me say let loose. So on my first weekend in Sri Lanka, on the Saturday to be more precise we were planning on going to this party which was being organized by some fellas (read radio station here) and some famous DJ from down under was coming down to make us dance to some famous trance tracks. And yusssri and lauren, the nice people they are, got us tickets to that party. Yussri picked us up at 10 or so and we went to lauren’s house then off to PARTY!! Turned out to be a small party with some 100 odd people there on the beach side and some temp playing some music. The news was that the DJ was coming and we were supposed to while away our time till then with this music. We decided otherwise and went to the mount lavina hotel. Had some drinks and juices and I tell u that place had one of the best views of an ocean. And guess what we could actually spot a cruise with all its lights in full glow, prolly some good party going on there as well. And we headed back to the party at 1240 or so, and guess what the DJ was already there. Met a few advertising folks who were in contact with yussri and lauren thru some of the earlier AXE parties that we had organized.
I really like being in a party. Seriously. And that’s because we have had a few good parties in college. And its always been with a whole lot of people there. All of whome we knew. But today was different, I knew only 3 fellas here and none of them were in a mood to go totally PAARTY!! The music being played was good, the crowd was decent, there was even that small brawl between 2 fellas to make u realize that u r in a real party even some foreigners (I am not talking about d indians here :P) Somehow it did not fit well today that we were in a party and that feeling just did not come. Probably its been quite sometime since I went to a party where I knew only a handful of people. There is only one learning from this party which came to an end at a premature time of 2 am – Try to go to as many parties as possible and go to those where u can make some new friends.
This post ends here with me signing off. Looking forward to a good Sunday where we can watch the IPL finals as well as a good time at the galle face (the beach side in Colombo)
