Raya Holiday

I am not a keen blogger. I don’t blog every single day. The initial purpose of my blog was to keep track of the things that I’ve been doing in my life. The purpose remains so.

Two weeks of holiday are nearly over. I met up with my friends, I celebrated by birthday, I went for an overnight at my friend’s house, I ate kampua and mooncakes, and I watched a lot of movies. I jogged every two days, and I do some push-ups and sit-ups everyday to keep myself fit. After this holiday I will go straight into the exam halls. I have been studying, not really into it, but hopefully I will do well in the coming exam.

My birthday was normal. Nothing impressive really happened. It will be my last birthday here before the 3 years overseas. The celebration is not important. I just hope I have cherished my time here more. The present from my friends was a bit unique, but I’m not really sure it will be of any use. Next time buy a more practical one, okay? I would choose a headphone over that, seriously. But again, will there be a next time? :( I guess the greatest moment of that day was when I opened the present she gave me a few weeks ago. I have to say, her birthday card was really pretty. Kind of revoke my longing to draw using water colors. Haha..miss those times.

Coincidentally, my birthday fell on the first day of Raya. And in case you don’t know, or you’ve forgotten, Sibu people celebrate Raya using firework. Chinese style. LOL. And the second day was the Independence Day of Malaysia. So I heard a lot of firework sounds on my birthday.

The next day I went to stay overnight at Kuen Luen’s house. Playing Dota all day as usual. We really enjoyed ourselves I think. Lose or win, doesn’t matter. As long as the atmosphere and fun are there. I slept the earliest that day, partially because of my promise to my parents and girlfriend that I would sleep early. And I woke up the earliest too. Oh yeah, good job!

Once in a year, for three years in a row, I will visit my closest Malay friend, Haziq during Hari Raya. This year we went as a gang. Had a great time there chatting and taking photos. Lawrence, being insanely crazy over photo-shooting after getting his DSLR, did his non-stop clicking as expected. And I think those pictures on this entry are all taken by him.

Three more days and I will be away from home again. Every time I come back I will miss my home more. I guess the feeling of leaving Malaysia is daunting me. Wondering, will I miss my home badly when I go oversea? Only time can tell.
