UWI Carnival '08.. the day everybody got a ride edition

Well as promised in my last post here are the additional photos. It was a daunting task to pick out some other photos to make a new post as I had hundreds to choose from. I scanned through em, re sized a few and I now present you with the uwival "everybody got a ride" edition. I wouldn't even go as far as saying you needed to be an able body man to get some action that day, tree stumps, street signs, security guards, girls and garbage bins had to endure the pelting of all the gyrating girls pelvises. I am sure these girls here made this mounted campus security day pushing him into blogger history.

The road march was pretty tame in comparison to the judging of the bands. I saw a large circle form on the lawn in front of the library and apparently all the bands where being judged for their energy(read ability to juke and get down on the grass). As soon as I got wind of these activities I went over to view the leggo beasts.

Get down they did. Now I would like to believe that I am not a prude but how does one factor in rolling around in a dust bowl, laying on her side with her legs open and a guy thrusting from behind in their soca dance routine?
I'm sure things got more interesting as day turned to night but I didn't stick around to find out, I had to finish up some work I started earlier in the day.. yah somebody has to do it. So I left as the trucks turned off the ring road and went on to the students union for the big fete.


Oh the irony.

UWI Carnival 2008

Based on the response I got last year with my UWI/UTECH carnival post I had to go back again this year and bring it back to the blog. This time I actually stayed until they made an entire loop around the ring road and came back with so many pictures so lets just start off with some in no particular order.

Free jimmy hats.. free alcohol? wet scantily clad girls? who could stay away?

From the disabled man(who was there last year also) to the paparazzi to the curious onlookers the place was teaming with people. What was disturbing and funny at the same time was a bunch of young boys(~10 years old) that would spot girls dancing by themselves and gyrate their way into position behind them only to be pushed away by the much older college girls upon detection. One such boy can be spotted in that first pic with the disabled guy.



Can you tell that yellow is my fav color? it just brings out the best in people :p [drools]


Lets just hope that he got shot in his crotch.




It's official, this post has reached photo critical mass and the debauchery is still yet to come.. I guess I'll post the rest later.

UWI Carnival 2007

I passed by UWI carnival 2k7 was today like the paparazzi I am. I must say that things have changed since I have stopped going up there after my friend stopped working in the computer lab last year. The first thing that caught my eye was the new stop light at the main gate, this was long needed, I don't know why they waited until I left to put it in.
My carnival friend told me she wasn't going but it was supposed to start at 10am.. I did my Jamaican time calculations and figured it would start by 1pm yet still I was early. I stopped by the new Jucy beef for the first time too and as I finished I went around to the Mary Seacole Hall where things normally kick off.

People started to crowd there and these are some of the pictures I snapped:

This lady tried hard to get my attention from across the road so I could get her picture.. I'm glad I did, I absolutely love those shorts on girls, too bad I didn't see any girls actually wearing them though.. lol


These girls were representing the AZ Preston Hall, my old hall. As far as I was concerned this was the best costume, not cause yellow is my favorite color or anything ;)


These girls in the redstripe band were pretty lively in comparison to the digicel band who was dead like dog, of course they aren't seen above cause that would be a waste of space.

Rain started to fall shortly after it started so us spectators started to take shelter where ever we could find.. the girls under my bush were dancing up a storm.


The rain started to come down so hard that for the sake of my camera I sheltered by the Philip Sherlock Centre. These girls here on the left gave me some serious screw face after I asked them for a picture to remember the moment, they asked me what I wanted it for, I said personal collection.. oops I forgot about the blog. They started to smile after a little bit of encouragement from me though, I hope they don't mind.
