Sneak peak into the BOD 2022-23
Rtr. Manula Pethiyagoda
President
Rtr. Manula Pethiyagoda is a proud product of the Faculty of Science, currently reading for a B.Sc. in Physical Science. Literally exemplifying true leadership ๐ช in all the chores he undertakes; from groundwork ๐ท to uplifting our club name to greater heights ๐ while assisting his fellow members in the friendliest way, this endearing young gentleman ๐คตโโ is the perfect example for the definition of a caring ๐ซ president.
He may seem strict ๐ง from the outer perspective but is completely the opposite in reality and having a little chit-chat with this individual will prove it to you ๐ซต๐ป. Being a funny character will make you think โhow is he even doing that?โ ๐ค but just as being funny and very calm in nature, he is also well focused ๐ฅธ in everything he does at all times.
When it comes to F.R.I.E.N.D.S, this guy is a diehard fan ๐ฑ, and even a person who gets to know him today will definitely be able to tell that right away โ๏ธ. According to his batchmates, he has even attended lectures by the name; Chandler Bing proving without a shadow of a doubt that he is the King ๐ซ of the F.R.I.E.N.D.S fandom. So, come to him to know anything about F.R.I.E.N.D.S! ๐คฉ
Heโs got a mystery girl ๐ฉ๐ปโ๐ฆฑ๐ in his heart (the girlโs got no idea that he likes her though ๐คซ) and he might try to give a hint ๐คญ about the girl during this joyful year. Letโs be attentive to his motivational speeches!
A person who does not eat meat or fish is normally called a vegetarian ๐ฅ๐, but according to him the dictionary is wrong (heโs a vegetarian but eats fish ๐ and some eggs ๐ฅ as well) and he has had many instances where heโs had nothing ๐ to eat at gatherings.
As it is said, among the avenues of RACUOK, Mr. President Community Service Avenue เถเถเถง เถญเถธเถบเท เถเทเถฉเถเท เถเถฏเถปเทโฆ ๐๐ฅฐ and other avenues are เถดเทเถฉเทเถฉเถเท jealous ๐คจ about that fact.
Nowadays, whenever we get power cuts during meetings ๐ค, the next second we are to expect a message from him in the group, "current na guys, kadi kadi ahenneโฆ" and then the next second he comes with a flashlight on ๐ฆ being the saviour of the meeting ๐. Even powercuts doesn't have the power from stopping this dedicated personality attending a meeting! ๐ฅณ
Never ever be shocked ๐ฎ๐ซฃ if a meme or a sticker containing what you did inadvertently ๐คญ has been shared in a group; he is always on the lookout ๐ง for such things, but also note that comparatively, the number of stickers made for him is higher (a good poser ๐บ).
So ladies and gentleman, here we are proudly declassifying Mr. President; the captain ๐ซ ๐ป of this amazing voyage of leading the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya for the year 2022-23, Rtr. Manula Pethiyagoda! ๐ฅณ๐
Rtr. Kisal Ekanayake
Immediate Past 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. ๐Continuing the saga, this guy has mastered the art of convincing anybody to do anything for him using his amazing set of skills (๐ง ahem! )
A pro at storytelling, his action-packed tales would unmistakably make you feel like youโve watched the latest Marvel movie even before its premiere. ๐ฆน๐ปโโ๏ธ Even the most inconsequential meetup would be boring without him being there to deliver his เถฑเทเถเถฝเท เถบเถฑ speeches, which he promises to keep very short (โbut the thing is guysโโฆโฆ๐)
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, ๐ง๐ฝโ๐ณso everyone is just looking forward to the uni to re-open so we can try out his fantastic cuisines. ๐ฅ
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 โitโs okay itโs okay เถเถฝเถถเถฝ โเทเทเถฑเทเถฑเทเถดเท no issue!โ 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. ๐ฃ๏ธ So, before dropping him a text even amidst the utmost urgency, make sure to check if youโve got your earphones with you. ๐ง We are pretty confident, youโll 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. ๐ฅฒ (The rumour is, some have even celebrated the very moment they got to know this! The parties had gone off for hours ๐ค)
Proving that โเถฝเทเทเทเถฑเท เถเถเทเถเท เถเถเท เถฏเทเถบเถเถง เทเทเถบเท เทเถธเถญโ isnโt applicable at all for phenomenal peeps like him, this multi-talented guy revealed the inborn star personality within him, with his melodious singing ๐จ๐ปโ๐คat the โRota Sonduru Sajjeโ most recently. Though the unquenchable curiosity of the gang about his selection of that particular song almost reached Holmes uncle and Dr. Watson, ๐ต๐ปโโ๏ธ this venture undeniably made him the STAR of the club overnight. โญ

Vice President

On a side note, for some reason, he believes he is going to be single till 2026 ๐๐.
This vice president is a perfectionist to the point which at times is annoying they say ๐คญ. If thereโs a voice message from Dinura, be ready everyone it's more than that; a podcast most probably ๐ซข.
With all his extracurricular work he is always busy and an expert in making fun nicknames ๐. Rtr. Dinura Liyanage is a totally dedicated personality who puts in his fullest effort when it comes to work. He is extremely helpful, caring, understanding and friendly ๐ซฑ๐ปโ๐ซฒ๐ผ.

Rtr. Samadi Perera
Vice President
This VP, Rtr. Samadi Perera, nicknamed โSamโ, is a proud product of the Department of Statistics and Computer Science of the Faculty of Science. She has an elfin face with a charming personality ๐ฉโ๐ฆฐ. She craves to be in a relationship, but when guys do propose to her, she refuses all at once weirdly ๐ฅถ. And she once said that she is in a relationship with, none other than her ownself!! โค๏ธ๐
When taking photos with her, youโll always have to make sure that she stands on the right (apparently her right side is her most flattering side) ๐. She loves anime and she has a strong desire for piercing. Sheโs still looking for a place. Maybe you could suggest her a good one! ๐ Most importantly, she loves her little puppy, Leon very much, that she always has a special place for him in her heart ๐ถ. However, she doesnโt like yellow walls. She says yellow walls look like a hospital ๐ฅน๐จ.
Sam is especially open to face challenges- a determined soul full of self-confidence ๐ค. We believe it is this positive attitude that made her for whom she is now. Rtr. Samadi Pereraโs remarkable presence will make the RACUOK reach more heights ๐๏ธ๐.

Rtr. Priyankara Madushan
Treasurer
Rtr. Priyankara Madhushan is a proud product of the Department of Finance of the Faculty of Commerce and management. Heโs famous for his beard among his colleagues. They consider his beard that of a pirate ๐! However, heโs not a pirate. Heโs a humble and honest guy who is deeply in search of a true love โค๏ธโ๐ฉน. He has the most dashing personality one could ever have ๐ง. He loves travelling with his bike. He adores his bike although it is an antique one - this guy believes in the saying โold is goldโ ๐ต. Heโs fat like โSoora Pappaโ ๐but his name given by the university is completely different. It is none other than โGotaโ, the nickname of the former president. With that name on him, his colleagues would often crack jokes on him saying of course futile things that the former president used to say.
When it comes to his real personality, he is a very good friend to everyone out there and willingly helps others ๐ฅณ. He is a very trustworthy and dutiful person and that is one of the key factors for him to be assigned as the treasurer of the entire club.

This bossy gentleman ๐คตโโ๏ธ canโt hide anything from his sister (he is afraid ๐ of his akka) and thinks he is tall (but he is actually short). There is a lake around his house ๐ (now for sure you are wondering how lucky ๐ he is that he can go for a swim whenever he wants), but note that he canโt swim! ๐โ
He is obsessed ๐ฅฐ with เถดเทเถฝเทเทเถธเทเถถเถฝเท and เทเทเถฝเทเถธเทเทเทเทเท เถถเทเถฏเทเถธเท and will be totally satisfied with these two in his plate ๐.
Twice a week he is receiving this call ๐ฒ for sure; a video call from Viraj (his best friend who lives in India ๐ฎ๐ณ now) just to talk for hours about their sad ๐ single life.

Rtr. Dinithi Fernando
Co-Editor
Rtr. Dinithi Fernando is a proud product of the Department of Finance of the Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies. Starting off we can introduce her as a kind-hearted and a dignified personality, although she considers herself weird โฃ๏ธ.

Once she reaches the end of a jaunt she feels lost and needs some time to recover ๐, which goes to show her passion for travelling ๐. Nuzha also considers spending time with her mom and sister to be her hobbies ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐ง. This young lady is a foodie who loves to try out new recipes and cuisines ๐. Whenever she's on one of her jaunts she will definitely make sure to stop at different restaurants just so that she can try their exotic dishes ๐.

She has a very interesting story about โherself and the Cream sodaโ ๐พ which you should definitely hear out ๐คญ. She also has the ability of overthinking and taking things too seriously ๐คฏ๐ซข. In brief she is a beautiful combination of kindness and crack โฅ๏ธ๐คช. And she also possesses a super amazing voice for singing and is quite famous as a singer too ๐ค๐ต.

She enjoys scripting poems and writing creative content as her hobbies ๐๏ธ๐. Though she is not much of a talkative person, Minduli is definitely one of the most amazing and sweet people you'll meet ๐งธโฅ๏ธ. She is so kind at heart, and into proofreading that she even helps her friends with their messages by proofreading them ๐โ . Whoever have come across her would have recognized her as a shy person โบ๏ธ. BUT within that is hidden a number of hidden talents ๐คฏ.

Rtr. Dewmini Abhisheka
Co-Director - Community Service
Rtr. Dewmini Abhisheka is a proud product of the Department of Physical Science of the Faculty of Science. The first thing that comes into mind when her name is invocated is, FASHIION! ๐Obviously sheโs a fashionable girl who spends a lot of money buying clothes ๐ค. She would often peep into her fatherโs pockets for that ๐ฅฒ. Struggle to choose a right attire would be a remarkable struggle in her life ๐ถโ๐ซ๏ธ. If thereโs any special event, you will find her planning about her dress code for weeks. So she actually overthinks bout her outfit. In fact, she is the first who often localizes latest fashion trends. Dewmini has a complicated love life and therefore no relationships yet ๐ถ.
When it comes to her actual personality she can be described as a dedicated, calm and cool person who is very much talented and independent ๐. She would go to the farthest corner of our country all alone โ๏ธ. Her contribution towards clubโs work is highly appreciable ๐ซถ. She is also the tallest among the Community Service Avenue directors. She would easily cheer up everyone around her with her witty talks and crazy ways of approaches. Some of her batchmates think that sheโs a tube light who questions about something over and over again. They also point out her as a one-day learner who would start studying if her exams are tomorrow ๐ฏ. She is good at dancing and she would watch dancing videos on YouTube when she gets some time to herself ๐. Apart from dancing, this fashionable scientist loves music too.
It is obvious that she is interested in many fields and this makes her a multi-disciplined character ๐คนโโ๏ธ. Undoubtedly RACUOK will have a significant journey ahead with this wonderfully awesome soul aboard in the most prominent avenue of the club. Rtr. Dewmini Abhisheka will serve the Commusnity Service Avenue marking the RACUOK a legend in the history of the Rotaract ๐ฏ๐ต๏ธ.
Rtr. Gayani Jayamanna
Co-Director - Community Service
Rtr. Gayani Jayamanna is a proud product of the Department of Statistics and Computer Science of the Faculty of Humanities. To begin with, Gayani is a total โเถเทเถปเท เถดเทเถปเทเถญเถบเทเถเท โ as addressed by her friends because if she doesnโt have her cup of milk in the morning, it would make her feel as if the day never started ๐ฅ๐. This unique individual does not have a specific hobby but is an expert about creams as she tries on different types of cream each month ๐ช. During a panic, She can do weird things (thereโs a flashback behind this one line!) ๐. She has the habit of โnot cleaning her table, where books are jumbled upโ which is a inherent quality of hers ๐๐. She does not need a specific time or duration to sleep, in her books thereโs no such thing as short naps ๐ด๐ค.
She has the many skills hidden such as abilities of handling IT related stuff ๐ป. She is a funny and kindhearted personality and never hesitates to extend her help whenever possible ๐ซฑ๐ปโ๐ซฒ๐ผโฅ๏ธ.

Rtr. Dinithi Lorensuhewa
Co-Director - International Service
Rtr. Dinithi Lorensuhewa is a proud product of the Department of English Language Teaching, Faculty of Humanities, who acts as the motherly figure ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ for all the younger ones she encounters and even as the perfect elder sister ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ one could ask for. She is very caring, friendly and lovely ๐ฅฐ to anybody which you could see to yourself by only talking with her for a very few minutes โฑ๏ธ.
She is undoubtedly a night owl ๐ฆ who also tries to transform everyone she works with as night owls too (be prepared ๐ to be awake to experience the dawn of a new day ๐ if you start a task with this girl).
Do not โ expect quick replies from her because she barely answers calls ๐ต and responds to texts right away (most of the time missing online and takes around 3-4 business days to reply). Also, we wonder whether she has a secret loverโฆ ๐ฉโโค๏ธโ๐จ (she stays online till late night but apith ekka text karanne nahaa).
We do get panicked ๐คฏ easily if we misplace our precious stuff (bag ๐ and phone ๐ฑ) right? But this cool individual is a very very chill person ๐ who does not get panicked easily and would just say โah itโs okay, will do this work and check for them laterโ and will stay extremely calm. So, even with the massive amount of workload ๐ she has, you will see her as a very cool person ๐.
Without a doubt, the International Service Avenue will find Rtr. Dinithi Lorensuhewa as one of the sweetest and easy-going characters they'll ever meet and weโre glad to have you on board! ๐ค๐ฅณ
Rtr. Pinsari Jayasundara
Co-Director - International Service
Rtr. Pinsari Jayasundara is a proud product of the Department of Modern Languages of the Faculty of Humanities. Pinsari is usually an early bird who sleeps early, ๐ while most people in the club are night owls ๐ฆ๐ฆ. So they will have to reserve her time the previous day if they want her to stay awake. Outwardly, she seems like a very silent person. But contrastingly she is very chitty chatty ๐๐. She is the person who always send long voice messages instead of texts. And she would speak unnecessarily louder in those voice messages just to annoy her peers. She loves beach and she still builds up sandcastles ๐ชจ๐. Itโs a real struggle when she starts to pick outfits when she goes on trips. When she likes a song, she keeps humming it until her friends really get tired of that ๐คซ.
Pinsari is also very good at planning sudden trips. She will watch dramas even if her exams are tomorrow ๐ฎ. And she used to have a crush on Dinesh Taranga. She was upset when she knew he has a relationship with Shanudrie ๐คฅ. When it comes to Pinsariโs absolute interests, she is very much fond of cotton candy. We can call it one of her extreme obsessions, which one day made a candy floss seller roam along with her ๐คฃ. However, she is an innocent and a lovely person whom for now loves being single. She is definitely a duty-bound personality ๐ฅฐ. She often tries to give her perfect output in every task that is assigned to her. Rtr. Pinsari Jayasundara is an outstanding character whose presence makes the RACUOK incredibly great ๐งโโ๏ธ๐ป.
Rtr. Sanduni Hansika
Co-Director - Professional Development
Rtr. Sanduni Hansika is a proud product of the Department of Marketing of the Faculty of Commerce and Management Studies.
