(just in case you all think I freeze to death over here in TO)
Kara Fire Fete was good but let me tell you that the people here don't know how to Jumbie at all. I was doing the Jumbie in the crown and can you believe that people were giving me looks like I mad!!! (It was a site though, one of the few white girls and the croud and she one of the very few that knew the Jumbie LOL)
All though I had a good time it can never measure up to a true TnT fete. To start off I waited in the frickin cold for AN HOUR AND A HALF!!!! Yes 1.5 hours you are reading it correct. Thank God for the water bottle in my pocket that Megan filled up with White Oak, I just keep sipping that to keep my sanity. Then there’s the bar issue - it closes at 2!!! I forgot all about that LOL I was glad to see the corn soup man when I was leaving, it put a smile on my face.
But definitely had a time and with that said just want to let you guys know I grabbed the tickets for Soca or Die, Megan is coming along as well. So get ready to Jumbie :)
(Ok well I guess I could of just emailed you but my blogg needed a post)
How are all the other bloggers??? Hope you are all doing well. I just here working and ting deciding on plans for my next trip which I feel is going to be Vincy Mas YES - with a couple of days in TnT before or after :)

OMG Buuble you partying all over the world. Vincy mas? How that one come about?
Jumbie dem! lol
Well actully my "man" lol ;) in trini going and he have family we can stay by. He want me to go bad so if I can work it out for sure I will be there.
I'm crossing my fingers and if it go through it really going to be a year full of mas for me: Trinidad, Toronto, Hamilton, Vincy - THEN BACK TO TnT FOR 2008!!!
Man, why the 1½ hr wait?? Yeah, I never liked feteing before May, no fun, I'm never in the mood to go when it's cold, it doesn't feel right, & now after going to T'dad, I know it won't feel right until like July! Outdoors at WWK or Mkhm Fgnds is the closest "feel" to T'dad. Did your leg hurt? :(
But still, Soca or Die'll be good, us cow folk'll show 'em how to Jumbie! LOL! :)
Well I could see how men could watch you funny. If Machel himself didn't stand up on the stage and demonstrate for me to see how to do this dance, I wouldn't have beleived this is the new hot dance for 2k7. I mean really, it have no wining or gyrating and for the most part you doing it by yourself (or in a circle or line dance fashion, but yuh not grinding on anyone. The dance look a little odd. Ah mean, if you hold your arms out just rignt, you could look like yuh playing air guitar.
But is nuttin, Machel say to Jumbie, so we go jumbie dem .... RAAAHHH.
Thanks for getting tickets for us.
I looked at pictures for fire fete... Was Machel playing that night?
Some guy came out and was teaching the jumie saying we had to learn it for Machel and I left that fete just past three and I yet to see Machel so I can't say for sure. Can we say REFUND!!!!
I looked on Torontlime too and there are no photos of him.
No problem re the tickets :)
Aye just read your comment on Saucy's blog about your leg. Damn that sounds painful. How you getting on?
WTF, no Machel!?!?!!
It's like this every year w the latest dance, we don't know them here until the performer, often Machel, comes & demos it in a fete. Bc we don't get soca videos here, which is so insane!:(!! We now have MTV & VH1 on satellite but no soca!!!! Grrr.....
But I want to hear more about the 'man' lol. You have a trini 'man' or man 'friend'?
Well Icahwait you need to give me an email address to hear that info LOL
you fave facebook :)
I know Kara - I wish we had soca videos here - it sucks!!! We will have a Soca Monarch night - I'll come over with the video (and some greens) and we will drink a little
