hihi.. Raya! raya!

Backlog on entries... I figure I might just sum it up. :D

This year we try to spend in moderate for ramadhan.. :D for the past years.. I have been breaking fast with baby and the APS people (since there’s no one at home for me to break fast with)…Was with Baby’s friends @ Tropicana on the 12th, APS on the 14th and unofficial APS on the 14th.. It was great... I was busy with work until Friday… L oh.. I think that APS has taken a whole lot more out of me..

Anyway.. RAYA peeps!! Raya journey to Kemaman was definitely tiring.. all u can see (ahahahahahah sure baby sakit hati baca ni.. I was actually sleeping ¾ of the way).. reword.. all I can see whenever I opened my eyes was CAR! Cars everywhere!!!! (nakKena kumpul duit lah nak beli helicopter.. senang sikit.. baby citer arwah pak su ya dia dtg naik heli je.. so tak payah nak redah jam.. berapa ringgit ye sebijik helicopter.. ahahahaha DREAM ON!.. )Anyway, Spend early of the night with Mommy in Klang.. and the rest of my family..

the happy lot of no.9

cars... cars.. and more cars..

IN kemaman.. Things are not much different. Maybe because there’s only me,baby umi n abah.. : D all my in-laws are spending their raya at their spouse’s place. Umi actually ordered most of the Raya feast so there’s not much to do… she only prepares the kuah kacang for the satay.. And a wee bit of rendang.. And here comes my RAYA DISASTEROUS ATTEMPT in SABOTAGING my MIL Rendang ..(hiks hiks my mother in-law now finds out why on earth.. I don’t cook when my mom n sis around).. she asked me to prepare the ingredient for rendang and kuah satay.. (in which.. they are almost the same.. except for few condiments je) .. I sway through the kitchen.. lalala here n there.. Gallantly I told her.. ok everything dah siap.. 5 min later she asked me.. wheres the ingredient for kuah kancang? OMG!!! I was soo into rendang.. I blend the kuah kacang and rendang ingredients together!! Eiissshhh… kesian my MIL.. Kuah kacang dia tak sebest selalu… and the rendang had too many ingredients.. here are some pictures taken in kemaman..

hiks hiks with koki.

its his 4th nasi dagang!! oh baby.. 6! nasi dagang in a day!

First raya without your own family, was hmmmm.. it was ok.. although my family do spend the raya differently.. Usually in the morning we went to the mosque for Raya prayer, then off to the cemetery, then of to nek esah (my late grandmamma bestfriend) then breakfast.. then .. mama tido.. apis tido.. ahahahha I watch the telly.. kak ni off to the inlaws.. Later in the evening baru kelam kabut.. Getting ready for the sg.udang clan to came, the nek esah clan.. SAME ROUTINE EVERY SINGLE YEAR

one of my fave poem

"Daffodils"

I WANDER'D lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;Beside the lake, beneath the trees,Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:Ten thousand saw I at a glance,Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:I gazed -- and gazed -- but little thoughtWhat wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;And then my heart with pleasure fills,And dances with the daffodils.

By William Wordsworth (1770-1850).

:) i first read this poem when i was 15. indeed.. i fell in love with it immediately.

Eid Mubarak Everyone!!!

Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri from both of us.

:) i will update on my 9hours journey to kemaman, my evil effort sabotaj-ing my mother in law's rendang... :) my first hari raya without ketupat... and the ramadhan summary.

be back soon. :)

to anonymous: why make religion a taboo thing.

:) my previous entry was on ibadah on ramadhan.. and i was wondering why many fellow bloggers prefer to write about food and iftar's places rather than religion thingy. We make things difficult with religion by putting it as a taboo thing.

rather than saying 'Alhamdulillah, she realised what is ramadhan is all about' .. an anonymous reader comment 'cakap pasal ibadat tapi aurat rambut apa citer?' i am okay with this comment, but what worries me.. if there are another 1000 anonymous-like reader, people will tend to stray away from Islam.

And if anonymous is someone i know... it should be better.. because he/she knows me. But if anonymous is only a passer by.. a bloghopper.. then IT IS definitely worrying... to just read an entry.. n the only thing in his/her heart is disgust.. is definitely worrying. :) then u r a weak muslim either.

anyway, a friend told me.. sending good words are fardhu ayn, :) i am reminding myself and everyone else. and just because you have weaknesses, doesnt mean u cant talk about Islam.

to anonymous: think about the consequences, what if a person stop talking about islam because of you? hihi.. no need negativity in Islam. aight?

arent they the cutest thing eva?

kena pandang hari hari so kenan! kekekek *wink* *wink*
anyway.. :D its friday and i'm procrastinating as usual.. miahahaha .. *tiba tiba kena bendung rasa riak.. sebab i settled some things switfly* - i am good in arrester modelling hiks hiks

:D hehehe i was bloghopping these few days, and found that not many had mentioned about the utmost important activities in Ramadhan.. Ibadah. Me and baby, had the chance to performed teraweeh.. not everyday tho.. :D. just a reminder to me and baby and everyone else... Its Ramadhan.. try to do as many good deed as possible.. 9 days left.. and we are not too late.

so.. cepat cepat harvest pahala peeps.

'If you turn to Him, He will turn to you, too. And if you turn away from Him, He, too, will turn away from you'
