Sneak peak into the BOD 2021-22

Kisal Ekanayake

President

This charismatic gentleman is a proud product of the Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, majoring in Financial Engineering. Literally exhibiting the very definition of being a true leader, he is the perfect package from engaging in the groundwork to leading his fellow members in his most superior way. 😌Continuing the saga, this guy has mastered the art of convincing anybody to do anything for him using his amazing set of skills (🧈 ahem! )

A pro at storytelling, his action-packed tales would unmistakably make you feel like you’ve watched the latest Marvel movie even before its premiere. 🦹🏻‍♂️ Even the most inconsequential meetup would be boring without him being there to deliver his නැගලා යන speeches, which he promises to keep very short (“but the thing is guys”……🌚)

A role model in balancing everything, this young gentleman is already an entrepreneur running his own business. Being a great chef, his top-notch culinary skills are behind so many visually appealing dishes, 🧑🏽‍🍳so everyone is just looking forward to the uni to re-open so we can try out his fantastic cuisines. 🥗

If you ever messed up while completing anything related to the club and report to him calling immediately, this super cool boss would swiftly reduce your anxiety with his “it’s okay it’s okay කලබල ‌වෙන්නෙපා no issue!” would make you feel like a heavy burden has been lifted off your head right away.

Apart from these, his other expertise is sending voice messages. 🗣️ So, before dropping him a text even amidst the utmost urgency, make sure to check if you’ve got your earphones with you. 🎧 We are pretty confident, you’ll be able to easily publish an audiobook if you collect his distinct voice notes ranging from milliseconds to long minutes. After getting to know this, WhatsApp was prompt enough to introduce the fast playback option for voice notes. 🥲 (The rumour is, some have even celebrated the very moment they got to know this! The parties had gone off for hours 🤓)

Proving that ‘ලොවින් එකෙක් එක් දෙයකට වෙයි සමත’ isn’t applicable at all for phenomenal peeps like him, this multi-talented guy revealed the inborn star personality within him, with his melodious singing 👨🏻‍🎤at the ‘Rota Sonduru Sajje’ most recently. Though the unquenchable curiosity of the gang about his selection of that particular song almost reached Holmes uncle and Dr. Watson, 🕵🏻‍♂️ this venture undeniably made him the STAR of the club overnight. ⭐

So ladies and gentlemen, hereby declassifying the captain of the voyage, who’ll be guiding the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya 2021-22, none other than the president, Rtr. Kisal Ekanayake! We’re so sure that you’ll continue being recognized as the President of the Month throughout the year!

Nipuna Rambukkanage

Immediate Past President

This skilful gentleman, who is a proud product of the Faculty of Computing and Technology, sets the prime example when it comes to leadership.🤵🏻‍♂ His poise and the ability to take sharp decisions has paved the path for him as well as the whole club to strive towards excellence. 🪄 He is such a good listener and is always willing to listen to others’ opinions (and in case if these ideas have the potential to be executed as a project, the rest becomes history! 🏅) He is undoubtedly a night owl who prefers to take meetings past midnight! 🦉 Anybody who would sit for a meeting with him can easily experience the dawn of a new day since those meetings are supposed to get dragged till the sun starts to expand its soft light rays! 🌤️ (it is only then that this group of night owls can go to sleep peacefully)

This gentleman has a heart of gold, and he always inspires everyone around him to be successful in whatever they do. 💫 He seeks opportunities to grow in every moment, which must be the reason for him to be renowned as “a star wherever he goes”. 🌟 However, underneath his serious demeanour, there’s always a fun-loving person who loves to party and enjoy his life to the fullest 🕺🏻, somewhat of a father figure to his dogs. 🐶 Anyway, please be mindful whenever you’re walking alongside him. This guy almost always tends to trip and fall wherever he goes, may it be an uphill or a slope. However, when it comes to his journey, his clear vision has never failed him. This very quality has perpetuated him to become a great leader. ✨ His influential guidance was one of the key factors for the club to skyrocket and strive towards being a recognized and award-winning organization. 🏆

It is with great honour that we present you the Immediate Past President of the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya, Rtn. Rtr. IPP Nipuna Rambukkanage! We extend our heartfelt gratitude towards your untiring dedication to the club while wishing you to reach higher and higher destinations which you indeed deserve!

Manula Pethiyagoda

Vice President

Being a studious undergraduate from the Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies, 📚 this guy is famous by his nickname, ‘මොණරා’ as he hails from Monaragala. (Let’s just assume that his peacock-like attitude has nothing to do with this 🦚) Also he is identified as an enthusiastic learner who loves to learn anything which he is not good at.

This handsome gentleman is currently eagerly waiting for his princess on a white horseback to arrive! 🌝👸🏻 According to our sources, this guy leads the scoreboard when it comes to boasting.😌 It’s better to keep in mind that he is a kind of a person who disconnects calls 📞 he himself has taken, saying that he’s busy and will call back later but never does so. Anyway, his close associates are well aware that he is an easy-going and friendly soul. 😇

We are really pleased to have Rtr.Tharindu Warnasooriya as the Vice-President for the year 2021-22 in our director board.

She is a perfectionist and capable of completing her due tasks most flawlessly.👩🏻‍💼

The first meetup with her would make you perceive how introverted she is, which only would last just a couple of more days until you get to know her completely. 😌 A fan girl of Shawn Mendes! Btw, this girl is the very definition of ‘roaster’ who gets pranked quite easily.🌝

She changes dps faster than Usain Bolt could run the 100m (pretty sure it’s changed since you started reading this) and depending on her mood, her dp could be anything from a pretty picture to a weird little meme template.

If you ever wonder what is at the top of her favourite list, there shouldn’t be any doubts cuz as all her friends say, ‘where there’s cheese pizza, there is Avi!’ 🍕

Hereby disclosing the Secretary for the year 2021-22, Rtr. Avisha Malalaratne. May your perfection prevail throughout the year!!

Treasurer

This gentleman is a proud product of the Faculty of Computing and Technology, currently specializing in Computer Studies. Hailing from දකුණුලකේ අගනගරේ, 🗼 there will be plenty of opportunities for you to witness his (so-called) proud moments (obviously followed by lengthy boasts) of being a proud citizen of down south. 🌝

Being an avid cricket fan 🏏, even if the ලෝක විනාසේ is destined to happen tomorrow, this guy would religiously fulfil his duty to watch the match until the end (and obviously comment on it). Considering his commentaries, even we feel that he’ll be the best option to be selected as a selection committee member of SL cricket!😌 On a side note, to read some of his intellectual WhatsApp status stories, the viewers might require the assistance of a philosopher. 🧑🏽‍🏫

While being somewhat famous among his friends for his quick temper, he would not at any cost tolerate the high-headed behaviour of anyone. We believe we have brought out the best in him however through the 3+ years us Rotaractors have tested him patience. 🧘🏽‍♂️

However, underneath this tough demeanour, there is a super cool guy who would genuinely give his maximum not just for the club, but also for any task he’s responsible for. A tech geek 👨🏽‍💻 and a pro when it comes to balancing finances, 💸 he would be the first one to ask you to start preparations to submit the finance report 📑 even when the project is yet to start!

Hereby, we introduce the Treasurer for the year 2021-22, Rtr. Malith Kavinda. We’re pleased to have you onboard!!

While his utmost duty is to look after the discipline of the club (I know now you’re wondering who’ll be checking his then?🙃), the famous quote he utters these days is ‘send me the screenshots/ මතක ඇතුව ස්ක්‍රීන්ෂොට් එවන්න’ as he needs to keep the records of the participation of hundreds of members at other club events.

He is well known for for his exceptional skills in chess♟️♟️. He loves online gaming 👾 and is an amazing graphic designer too🧑🏻‍💻. He is such a supportive, kindhearted character who would give a hand to anyone in need under any circumstances without saying NO 😇. A friendly character with a cheerful and a fun-loving attitude🤩.

Hailing from the hills, this guy a.k.a කන්දේ කුමාරයා regularly faces signal issues and the thought that occupies most of his time is, අද මොන ගහටද නගින්නේ?🌳 🤔 when a virtual meeting is due. You’ll realize that he is a real whatsapp sticker material worthy person if you ever get a chance to see the countless number of stickers made with all his amazing poses during virtual events🤣. Yet his profile dp’s suggest that he is very much photogenic since he knows how to pose to get stunning, stylish and impressive photographs 😎📷.

He is a super talented, joyous individual and one of those dependable friends on whom you can always count on ☺️!

Introducing the Seargent-At-Arms for the year 2021-22 Rtr. Mahesh Jayawickrama. Looking forward to your persevering commitment throughout the year!

You’ll find out about her care for stray dogs and cats if you just once view her status stories on Whatsapp.This girl loves animals and frequently talks with any dog or cat she encounters. 🐶🐱

Her favorites lie in quite a range. She loves to watch Korean dramas, and Bollywood movies (especially late 90s and 2000s) are also fine with her as long as they don’t end on a sad note. Being a die-hard fan of detective stories, she would directly go into a binge reading session if she gets to hold any book from Sherlock Holmes🕵🏻‍♂️ to Agatha Christie’s novels 🕵🏻‍♀️. Despite her age, she would love to be secluded in her own world while wandering adrift along with the characters in any series by Ms. Enid Blyton. 🪄

This girl is a great foodie who tries different types of food and goes out of the way to make food a priority🍔. Swimming 🏊🏻‍♀️ is her favourite among all the sports that she knows. She’s a well-known sleepy head 🥱 among her close circle of friends and has got an extraordinary talent of falling into slumber pretty quickly 😴😴.

She wakes up by 9.30 am nowadays which she considers a significant improvement in her sleep routine 😅. She is good at annoying the people who are in her comfort zone and has an extremely wacky laugh and yes what you think is right- she is a very loud 🔊 and talkative person.

Nipuna Ratnayake

Co-Director - Member Relations

He is a proud product of the Faculty of Science, currently reading for a B.Sc. in Physical Science. He was one of the frontline members who had given his utmost contribution towards the elevation of the award-winning project ‘Track the Spread’. 🏆

This tech geek 👨🏻‍💻 is the namesake of our beloved Immediate Past President. Anyway, in order to avoid the miscommunication where the junior and senior Nipuna used to face it quite often back then, our IPP named him with the ‘පොඩි නිපුණ’ card, which made him quite popular among the fellow members of the club.

When asked about whether he has any interests (particularly hobbies), this witty guy slipped from the question with a mischievous ‘prefer not to say!’ at a speed where even an eel couldn’t win after competing against him. 😂 (I’m sure no more lengthy phrases are needed to describe his extraordinarily mastered ලිස්සා යාමේ කලාව) Though he did not disclose it, he is a great photographer who is able to capture phenomenal shots with his lenses, especially sunsets. 📸

Having such a sharp memory 😉, he would call the project coordinator to provide an excuse as to why he missed participating in a project the previous day whereas said project was actually due to happen on the day after leading to a lot of confusion all around.

Here’s introducing the Co-director of the Member Relations Team, Rtr. Nipuna Ratnayake. It is a pleasure to have such a witty guy like you on board!

Gimhan Rupasinghe

Co-Director - Member Relations

This charismatic gentleman is one of the best examples of a multitalented personality, currently majoring in Economics at the Faculty of Social Sciences. A skillful athlete in track events. Not only that,🏃🏻‍♂️ but also a talented basketball player⛹🏻‍♂️. An all-rounder who possesses talents for dancing, acting🎬, and debating.

His command of language may leave you with a doubt, that he should have majored in marketing instead of calculating the rate of inflation at the Dept. of Econ! 😌 When it comes to promoting an event, we’re pretty sure even a top rated advertising agency can’t beat this mastermind! 😎 Apart from that, he’s a pro when it comes to experimenting with a number of new styles! 🕺🏻 A genuine and kind-hearted soul, who’d do anything for the success of his friends. 😇
