WS: Can you Handle it?
Feb 22, 2009 under Expat Living, Singapore
The last couple of weeks I have been lucky enough to witness several cultural events in Singapore, one of them is Thaipusam Event in Singapore.
What? You want more pictures
and details on this event? I have them at this post on my expat living blog.

@ Yeah it was amazing to see it upclose.
MommaWannabe on Feb 23, 2009
@ sassy mom – Yeah truly Ouch! There were women too but they didn’t carry those heavy things. They only pierced their mouth with metal things.
MommaWannabe on Feb 23, 2009
@milet – Yeah and they have to walk several kilometers barefoot too.
MommaWannabe on Feb 23, 2009
@ Mauie – yes I think he’sabout 9 or 10 years old. I admire him for doing this but I don’t think I’d let my future kid do this.
MommaWannabe on Feb 23, 2009
@ Mhay – Thanks!
MommaWannabe on Feb 23, 2009
@ iska – thanks! Yes it was really cool to witness this cultural event.
MommaWannabe on Feb 23, 2009

@ Connie – it is really insane to see it in real life;)
