Then went back home for a while before going out again with my cousin..
It's been a looonng time since i've hang out with her.. and also at causeway point, coz it has been ages since i last stepped into the mall to walk around and chill.. i mean, eversince im in poly, 85% of my time was spent at the east side.. so, i pretty much dont know wads the latest updates within woodlands.. like some total stranger that is..
Anyways, accompanied her to get her stationaries for her school.. LOL..
her shopping for stationaries reminded me the times whereby i used to shop for such stuffs during secondary sch times.. like green pen for correction, red pen for peer marking, blue ballpoint for exam/test.. colour pencils, those 2b pencils.. haha..
Now, its juz a pen, pencil, highlighter, calculator at least.. coloured pens are just for writing cards and such decorative/design purposes..
after that, went to walk ard.. saw quite a lot of kool stuffs that I wanna get.. gosh, which includes another new cap and an earphone.. LOL! but aint getting it soon coz im reaching to broke level.. darn!
Decided to go to her house aft that.. and on the way there, saw this kuda kepang ritual under a void deck..
So, both of us went to check it out...
hmm... this kuda kepang thingy is like a taboo for some ppl... and can be classified under deviant in sociological terms...

It is like some form of a performance, more or less a ritual, whereby these grp of ppl performed the kuda kepang dance while riding this horse-like prop.. and get themselves possessed by spirits as the gamelan beat got faster after their normal dance..I was very amazed as it was my first time to witness such ritual..
These guys who are possessed behaved so unhumane that they left the crowd running a distant away from them each time they get nearer.. theres a lot of aggressions like banging their head on the walls, tables, kicking the chairs, climbing onto walls, raging, and also the infamous eating of glass pieces.. all of such, done by these wide-eyed possessed kuda kepang dancers..
noticed one of them bleeding profusely on the forehead due to such aggression, the other had a reallly bad hit on the shoulder blades after falling from a stack of tables.. but its sad as they cant feel their own pain due to the possessed state..i shall say no more.. let the photos do the talking..
It was seriously freaky..
I mean, for myself to witness it for the first time... it juz made me speechless..
Al those hectics.. with tables and chairs being thrown, kicked, damaged..
At first, i tot they were juz acting.. but the more i started to believe it was real when no one response to the injuries that the dancers faced.. and the fact that they eat the glass pieces, weird movements and shaking of body and all.. it was just as mind-blowing..
It was said before that one who doesnt have a strong belief and is weak-hearted, the person can easily get posessed by the same spirit if the dancer attacks him/her.. so thats y, parents with their own child/toddler within the crowd are advised to back away as far as they can while they witness the ritual..
So, enuff bout this and lets move on..
Went to my cousins house.. helped my aunt with the 'Just Married' fonts for my distant aunt who's getting married in 2 weeks time, that was supposed to be pasted onto the back of the car..
Not long after that, i went straight home.. lol
updates again yo!
