I'm not a "Selangorian". Back in KK we dont have public holidays for Thaipusam. All these year i would watch the Thaipusam celebration in TV and get awed by all the really realllllly reallllllly unique guys with all the metals sticking out on their face and skin.
now THAT is cool!
Today i finally been given the chance to go to Batu Caves and watch these people myselfs!!!
Unfortunately, i cant make it.
My mom thinks it's too dangerous to go there as there'll be a MASSIVE crowd and i need to finish up my assignments. She knows i love cultural things and traditions, so it was a moody thing for me not to go there. She asked me to be realistic, give the Hindus the chance to take my place. So i let go of the opportunity to watch the peoples and experience the celebration in Batu Caves.
I tell you, someone should bring me to Penang one day and let me experience this unique celebration.
To Petrina: thanks for inviting me, although you barely knew me. Invite me next time. Infact invite me all the time to these celebrations! Love you!
Love,
Jacqkie.
