today is 12th syawal. some people say raya is for a month so its the 12 day of raya lah. for some raya only lasted for a week. it really means "aku dah malas nak hidang kuih ngan air. kite lepak kat kedai mamak je kalau nak minum-minum". understandable.
so how did it go?.. for me, well, slightly different from last year although much or less it was the same. i'm sad and happy.
sad because once again i didn't feel the raya spirit again.. same as last year i have no emotion what so ever when i kissed my parent's hand while asking for forgiveness. no sadness no nothing. hmm, i did felt a bit sad la but no tears flowing. just a sense of guilt of not being a good son.
happy because this year i met a few of my long lost friend! a sort of like 'compensation' for my dull raya. and also for the 1st time in so many years i had other friends visiting other than mr. fareed, my good friend.
shanty pero. nice meeting you. my secondary schoolmate. met her by chance. i was attending my booth at the ramadhan bazar (i'm a temporary salesman selling shoes and shirts.. remember?) and there she was standing in front of me. aku pun tegur la. she was bit suprised (hey, who wouldn't right?).

reza-rizvy. thanks for coming bro. he was my junior in primary school. and that day when he came, he offered me to go beraya. so i joined him la because i had nothing to do. from then on we visited 6 houses. none i knew what so ever because all are his friends. he send me back at midnight! and he drive like mad!! i think he was imagining he drove a ferarri or an f1 car or something. at one point i was fcuking scared. damn!.. haha.. but it was fun though.. =)
azmin and ayu akida. great meeting you guys. i went to visit their house. both husband and wife, are my friends. ayu (wifey) was my classmate at smkbl while azmin was my neighbour during my matriculation days in chermai jaya. love blossom during those time and i'm proud to say that i played a part in the match making process.. =) now they have a wonderful family along with 3 beautiful kids.
nurhidayati. currently holds the record of my longest long lost friend. my secondary scoolmate. last seen in form 1. she transfered to other school the next year. met her in a very strange place-at a parking lot in at tabuan jaya business area, at night, when all the shops already closed!.. haha.. met for only 10-15 minutes but it was worth it. thanks dear.
