The weekend that was


Crazy!
Is all I can say about the weekend. My escapades on Friday saw me end up in Kisementi at Fat Boys. Boy that place happens! I left just before 5:00am to head to Bugos just to have enough sleep before the super 14 game at 8:30am. Thank God the game was delayed by over 30 minutes because I would have missed the entire first half. Someone turned off my alarm clock for some reason.

Then there was Saturday. Boy oh boy! It happened to be my friend's birthday so four of my friends came over to watch the super 14 games and before I knew it we were off again. Time check 12:20pm. We stayed home till after the Man United game and by that time two crates had gone down. Obviously I prefer to watch the Premier league games in a bar but this was different.

Talking about watching soccer in bars. I think bar owners should start paying some money to the Barclays Premiers League. These people's sales go up as much as 20% during the season. Seriously if you love soccer, stop watching it at home. Find a bar near you. It's so much better. The feeling as you look into your opponent's fan's eyes as you thump them is so.... I can't describe it. And of course the unlimited flow of your favourite beer or whiskey or soda for that matter.

Eh, back to my Saturday night. I managed to convince my friends to stop at the Smirnoff Raev Street Jam, and street jam we went. We had a lot of fun, the fireworks was ballistic, but there was no Beebie Man and that is the line I used to convince my friends. But they quickly forgot about it after the fireworks and some good performances from our local boys.

We left the Street Jam after about two hours and headed to Steak Out. Steak Out was on fire so we stayed. I got many phone calls to go to Equator at the Sheraton among other places and kept turning the envitations down but only managed to do that for an hour or so as I finally decided to go. Crazy! Again, Kampala people know how to hang out. This place is at the Sheraton! I know many people who would shut you up the moment you mention drinking at the Sheraton and I don't blame them. But this place also has its people, and they are not few. I'm going to trying it out again this weekend. Before I get high...

Today is the last Tuesday of the month and The Maurice Kirya Experience is on at the Rouge at the Plaza building. This is one of the best live music performances in the country. Maurice collects the country's most talented musicians and poets and puts them on the same stage. He also invites real talent from other countries to spice it up even more. This show is always Lege.....ndary! It only runs from 8:00pm to 10:00pm but for 10k, we get more than we pay for.

And of course being a Tuesday, the Campus night at club silk is on. I missed very few of these during my time at campus and I regret missing them up to now. You want to know why, go find out for yourself.

The Super Tuesday is on at Steak Out today and this is one of the reasons I love my Job.
See you there..
