Our first raya together

I can't believe that I have to go to work tomorrow after a 9 days of holiday. Sungguh malasnye...

Time flies so fast when you having fun, right. So how's your Raya? My raya was as usual except that this time, I didn't need to sneak out to call someone on Raya's night at my grandma house. Coz this time, that person was with me all the time... =)

The raya mood started a day before raya when we drove to Muar with my parents and Naqib. The road was surprisingly clear and no traffic jam until we arrived at my Atuk's house. After freshen up we decided to tour the Muar bandar for the sake of wasting time and petrol. So Naqib & I become unofficial tour guide for Zainal as this was the first time he came to Muar. From my dad's high school to the big durian, everything was showed to him. Hehe.

When we came back home, we decided to help my mom collecting duku while waiting for berbuka time. This was my first experience and to tell the truth, I didn't know there's a lot of duku trees behind atuk's house. Furthermore, it was full of ripe duku. We managed to collect full basket from few branches of one tree only. But the worse part of it was that mosquitoes were having a feast with my blood and not forgetting ants were crawling all over my body as if I was their highway. God, that was awful.
Bertungkus lumus...

Raya morning was filled with usual routine: Sembahyang sunat raya, giving duit raya session and followed by photographed session. This time, the increasing DSLR camera was observed during the last session. Adakah semua cousinku ingin menjadi photographer. At least there's no weird photo taking action from photographer itself like last year. Hehe..

I tried to absorb and feel as much as I could on the sights, sound and smell of this raya. I might not enjoy it next year coz most probably I won't be in this country to celebrate. Gonna miss this routine so much though.

Oh, this is the first raya I don't get any duit raya. Last raya was the last one as people still confused if I have worked or not. But this time, when there's a hubby next to you, there's no way you can join the long queue. Oh ya, Pak Sham still give a kesian duit raya to me and Zainal though. Hehe...

Upon arriving KL, the whole raya mood has just dispersed away. Zainal & I went 'beraya' with fishes and reptiles at Aquaria KLCC on second raya and watched 'Kami'. Personal warning: If you don't follow the episodes of Kami, you might not understand the whole story of that movie.

Shark... Grrrrr...

Yeah, I'm having a great time this raya with my family. Too bad tomorrow I have to face my works again.
