Aidilfitri 2013



1 Syawal, the day all Muslims all over the world celebrated Hari Raya. As such, the routine will be going to the mosque for Solat Sunat Aidilfitri, eat ketupat and rendang (all time favorite) and visiting relatives. For me, it is much the same as others, only that this year is a bit different that before. Usually, my Raya will end at 11.00 am, where family gathering, shake hands and asking for forgiveness and that's it. Off to bed.. That sums up my Raya.

But this year, it is more than that. After the family session, we all went to KL, to visit the grave of a family member, my best and closest friend, which every time I ended up in tears. Really, for me, who has been taking care of him when he was sick until his final breath, it really sticks in my memory for as long as I live. Going there with my family, since he was like a son to my my parents, recited Yassin and prayer for him is just an emotional moments for me. I miss you my dear friend, I will always come and visit you whenever I can.


After that, we went to the family's house, as both are closed. Meeting with Papa (that's what I called him) is something that I looked forward to every year during Raya. Putting all the bad things behind, I treated him with the utmost respect. Then off to Kak Ila's house in keramat AU5 for a short raya trip since we're nearby..

Now this is the best part. On the way back, since we're going in two cars, my sister, which was driving her car, text me.. "A&W PJ". Ayah wanted his dose of Root Beer Float.. Hehehe.. He didn't get it last time when we went there during his birthday.. So, detour to A&W PJ for a mug of cold, root beer.. :)


Done with the Root Beer, came back around 3.30pm, dozed off until 8pm.. Huhu.. Hungry and then off to my parents to have some more ketupat and rendang.. Sheesh... I have to start working out soon.. :)

Ok then, let see what tomorrow will brings.. Ciao.. Selamat Hari Raya.. :)
