October this year..

Hi y`all!
My lil brother, Jai is now 25 years old and I was happy that he received the special parcel I sent over to Lubeck on the Oct 15th. Boy! Was he a happy man to see the goodies I packed inside. All gratitudes, touching words and many thanks aside, I actually had the intention to send him stuff for quite sometimes. And since his birthday this year coincides with Raya season, it’s all the more reason to give him some cookies, kerepek, rempah ratus and what nots. Oh! I also bought him a baju melayu too! because if I’m not mistaken, he had only 1 black baju melayu which he brought to Germany ages ago. We had many chat sessions during the holidays and seeing him through the webcam at least had cheered my parents a lot! Especially, Mak who is not very well and just being diagnosed with Diabetis during Ramadhan. My sister, Kak Chik who passed away in year 2000 was also born in October. Al fatihah to you, Chik

Raya this year was fun! I noticed that I almost never had same Raya celebration as compare to the previous year(s). That is actually what I’m looking forward during the festival. I always know that I’ll be chilling around house, eating delicious food and channel-hopping in front of TV, but greeting people who came visiting and catching up with old friends are more meaningful to me. This year, cousins & their families from N9 drove all the way to Pahang. Their late mothers and Mak are sisters. And I did managed to visit their house last weekend when I was back in KL. It was good to keep in touch with cousins whom we were so close since child, I don’t know whether it’s the distance or for lack of communication, over these past years we somehow only had minimal contact as in not in each other’s loop. So it’s good to catching up with each other’s life and their kids have really all grown up now!

Well, after Raya, it was back in the office and many open house invitations are going around in KL for these few weeks. Not helping at all with my diet plan. Erghh!
