My Family on Hari Raya Aidil Fitri


I hadn't update my blog for days - gosh, I felt like a total loser for abandoning my blog.
Anyway, it is not too late for me to wish "Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri" to all of my friends, from my schoolmates, to my penpals and to whoever knew me, hoping that everyone had a great Hari Raya and enjoyed this festive season in happiness.

So, my Hari Raya was fun, I spent it with my family and relatives, asking forgiveness and forgave everyone. It was a long tiring day, but we have so much fun going from one house to another together. I got lots of duit raya, despite I am getting older. Ah ~ it was a happy celebration, but we didn't forget to visit my grandparents graves with my family. We have to remember them even when they are no longer with us, even when we are having fun on Hari Raya. I went back to my dad's hometown in Perak on the third of Hari Raya and celebrated it with my dad's relatives. It was quite boring, but the journey was quite fun.

Ah ~ I finally revealed my family. My elder brother took this picture on the first day of Hari Raya, before we went to my grandparents' graves, which explained why some of us in the picture wore tudung (even during normal days we don't wear tudung, bad me).

Let me introduce my family members (except for my elder brother and brother-in-law who were excluded from the family picture).

The woman in blue baju kurung and without a tudung (at the very end of the picture) ;; my sister-in-law, a kind woman who knows how to cook very well and is extremely nice. We sometimes contacted each other through SMS a lot.

The girl with white tudung and purple baju kurung (next to my sister-in-law) ;; my well-known cry baby younger sister, two years younger than me but way taller than I am.

The woman with purple tudung and baju kurung (sitting on the couch in the middle) ;; she is none other than my beloved mom, going to retire from work next year and is a perfectionist in almost every aspect of life.

The woman with blue tudung and white/blue baju kurung (next to my mother) ;; my elder sister, who never actually act as if she was the eldest daughter of our family and often act silly though she is very nice.

The youngest boy with t-shirt and jeans (sitting my elder sister's lap) ;; my youngest nephew, Ashraf, in which been called 'the younger brother Oh Wonbin never have' due to many similarities (as spotted by my mom recently) - the same eyes, the same dimples, the same smiles.

The girl with white tudung and purple baju kurung (kneeling next to my elder sister) ;; well, this is me, looking extremely not like the usual me when I am wearing a tudung for sure.

The one and only adult man wearing purple Baju Melayu (sitting on a small rattan stool behind me) ;; he is my dad, who is very kind but recently become really fussy, finally getting himself a new Baju Melayu after years of re-wearing the same Baju Melayu.

The young boy in blue Baju Melayu (sitting next to my younger sister) ;; my nephew, the son of my elder brother and sister-in-law, in which I always confused about his age and always teasing me, every time he sees me.

The young boy wearing gold Baju Melayu with a freaking looking smile (the middle child among the three sitting children) ;; of course, judging from his smile, he is my beloved nephew, Amirul or preferred to be called as 'Little Hongki' by me.

The young girl wearing blue baju Kurung (sitting next to me with a peace sign) ;; my niece, my elder brother's daughter, who is very talkative and very loud but also, very sensitive at some time.

It is already the 6th day of Hari Raya today. I need to post some useful post next time. But I am just too busy. I'll be back soon, maybe an hour later?
