Theertham and homam

How to share theertham and start a homam... :)

8.30 PM: Many of us gathered around at sam's place and people where floating in & out,. Basically, it was chaotic. There were a few Cranky moments( those snaps where we posed over sameera ;)  ) and a few rounds of photo session. 

9.30 PM: Few of the guys (natu's, jingly..) had to leave due to other commitments... The rest of us lying down here and there... chit chatting.... Watching song videos... etc...

10.30 PM: "Theertham" sharing.... "Homam" valarthufying...  and me .. just watching the rituals.. ( Ena avasaram..?? Adhuku time varum :P :X ).. This goes on till 11.45 and odd...

Jan 1 ,2009 : "Happy new year !!!!!! oooo aaaaahh " on the streets.... And kuthu inside.... Everybody busy with their dear ones on the phone.... Then some more people head back home.. 13 of us stay back...

1.30 AM:  Failed attempt to get to bessie beach because of total confusion and returning back to room. A short halt velachery tea kadai. Police thorathi vitutanunga.

2.30 AM: Naangalam new year ah mangalakarama aaramipom :D ... Modhal velaya petrol thirudardhu... Street la oru bike start aagalayam next morning :D ... Starting Side beach (ECR). Though i was really skeptical about getting there.. ( btwn.. It was really cold and d margazhi dew was heavy)

3.30 AM: Yet another " Bournvita" halt ..this time near OMR.... 

4.00 AM: Side beach la vandhachu.. Pitch black except for "Hoomam" stick lights and a bunch saints lying on the sand. 

4.30 AM: Guys playing pacha gutharai ... few of us lying on the sand wearing helmets for the cold ( which didn't do much help to prevent me from getting sick for the next couple of days), listening to romantic songs, star gazing....

4.45 AM:  Police raid near the bike parking. Somehow managed to escape. 

5.00 AM: searching for the lost petrol tube. Starting back home. Street race between keerthi and me. Winner by 0.5 sec - "vibo" (Poor frozen thiru)

6.30 AM: Home sweet home.

What a night ;) .. peace !
