Carnival in TNT is one of the greatest shows on earth. And with that, you will do things that you've never done before in your life. You will dance more than you've ever danced, laugh more than you've ever laughed and wine more than you've ever wine. And you'll probably listen to more soca than you thought was possible. And for those that drink who are first-timers or what we call carnival virgins -- you will drink more alcohol than you've ever drank in your life.
And will all the songs that talk about rum and liquor, the non-drinker may be inclined to take a swig or two of a drink and then before you know it..... BOOM!!!
THE LIQUOR WILL CONQUER YOU!

While
I was at Miami Carnival, I ran into this one brother who I met at
Orlando Carnival and Tampa Carnival. His name is Jelani. The dude is
cool people and a promoter and he handed me a flyer about Kes coming to
Tampa on the 18th of October. Now, this was FANTASTIC news because I
knew after Miami Carnival I was going to need a quality hit of soca in
my veins because I'm a soca junkie and I knew the Tabanca would kick in
bad because Miami Carnival was AWESOME (to say the least). So on the 18th of October I went to see Kes at Dunn's River Cafe in Tampa, Florida and I got the fix that I needed. It was a fantastic experience.

Carnival Tip #2 - Make Sure You Pick This Correctly! (It's No Joke)

Waiting until the last minute to get housing or procrastinating will only makes things worse. And
trying to call around to find someone that you can share a room with
could be an ABSOLUTE disaster if you and that person are not on the same
page and don’t have the same PACE. If you have a roommate,
that should be planned out way in advance to. You most definitely want
to room with someone that you have known WELL for years.
Otherwise, this can make for a disastrous trip. Especially when you
combine, liquor, fatigue, impaired judgement and the opposite sex. So
be aware. And when it comes to waiting until the last minute to get
housing, yes, you may “pull it off” and get some housing but that’s not
the way to do things.
Get your housing secured now.

Today we live in a society where noise is
constantly being pumped and “pushed” into our ear drums from our
Bluetooth devices to regular giant size head phones that promote a
“clearer” sound. Whatever the case, you can clearly see how we have
more devices with sound on our ears and person that we did years ago.
Compound this with loud noise exposure a few times out of the year and
you can see why hearing loss and noise exposure strategies have become a
hot topic of research and study.Now, I know it seems cool to listen to the music on the road and in the fetes right up on the speakers, but, all things considered, your hearing is something that is very important and its one thing that you cannot get back when you lose it.
EVER!! Once you lose it – its gone!
