Syawal 2008 =)

as i'm like too lazy + exhausted yg amat sgt to update my blog after each n every event of wut happened during raya n all, lemme just summarise all the raya thingy-s into one post. so, beware! this is soooo gonna b a long post indeed! heee. =p

okie, everything started 2 days before raya. we made karipap, kueh suci dlm debu, samperit n 2 marble cakes that night. wuhuu~ n yeah, we slept totally late that night which was after subuh. gle mngantuk tyme tuh.

the next day, went for buke puase + mjlis khatam quran + takbir raya at balqis's place. nway, x smpat pun nk bertakbir sesame as it was quite late n me n my hsmates had to rush bak home to prepare dishes for our 1st syawal open house. dat nite we made rendang ayam, kari, roti jala, nasi impit n last but not least, kuah kcg. heee. this tyme raye, x bnyk pun foods. just msk simple2 je. gle x larat nk msk bnyk2. =p

.rendang. roti jala. marble cake in making. samperit.

after midnight, we went outside n played bunga api. gle klaka tyme neh coz xleh nk bising2. we had to play wif our mouths shut!haha. =p nk jerit2 pun tabley coz sume umah pun da gelap. kang x psl kene mrh ngn neighbours!

[one incident: klaka gle witness afiq jatuh tangga masa nk trun pagi tuh. duk khusyuk berlari turun pkai heels smpai terjatuh. haha. sian afiq. =p] nway, went to solat raye at masjid al-khaleel at 1st. but then, sampai2 jek tgk sume org da kat luar da abes solat raye. down gle. =( since sempat agy nk kejar pegi city mosque, we straight away rushed there. luckily, sempat jugak smpai. =D gosh, gle missing home time tuh. dgr takbir raye, sayu je hati. kui3. gle emosi. =p
