The last Eid

Wowee! I had a blast at today's Raya celebration at our hostel. Personally it seems to be the best Raya I had in our 6 years in Volgograd. The food was scrumptious, the events were plentiful and ran smoothly (despite a few PA glitches) to make sure the guests are not bored. I mean, the organizing commitee made a vigourous effort to realize all this. Kudos to all who helped to organize this successful event (Amboi mengalahkan Sany pulak ucapan aku, thee hee).

Next year will surely not be the same - we may be celebrating raya at our home towns, hell we may even be 'enjoying' Raya at the hospital. I was all aware that this is our last Raya fete that we're going to celebrate together. But deep inside my heart I couldn't feel any jolts that can yank my emotion asking to miss these moments. Yes I felt a bit sad realising there is a possibility to miss these events after graduation. But at the same time I'm a tad exhausted of having the same photography session where ppl , mostly boys would almost always dress in their last year's Baju Melayu ( including me). But I still wanted to take some photos because this our last Raya you know. (Gosh Im sorry you guys I really appreciate all the efforts, and yes I truly enjoy this particular Raya party), but some times this is what i feel. But hey, maybe I will miss this when we've GRADUATED!

Okay enough of the rambling. All in all, I love certain Raya celebrations at Hiroshima (today's certainly on the top of my list), I love to dress up, I love the food, I love to take pics with you guys callmeintehmorning and closetdreamer!

My questions are - did you guys enjoy todays Raya? Will you guys miss these events afterwards?

Answers with ang pows only. =P

honestly...I feel I'm gonna miss this celebs much more than I realize now...

I mean, yeah...its all tard boring with almost the same appearance, photo session, bla 2..but at the end of the day, that what I really want..to enjoy my day of triumph with all that is close to me..with all the ppl that I knew so well I could guess what they wear underneath that colourful baju melayu...(ok, thats pretty too much)...

I know celebration with family, kat kampung, will all be sentimental...

but truly, its the part where I got to ziarah my friend's house is the most anticipated event of the whole festive month..

and I really enjoy that day's Raya :)

and for Ang Pow, u can claim mine from Sany :)

It was ze' bomb!!

I loved it, despite the sound system being so disastrous! Freshmen were awesome! But aint awesome enough for me to have a crush on em, ahem!

And yes, I will miss all this very much, being our last year here and all. Ah, memories.. memories.. I'm gonna miss you guys more, that's for sure. I don't think I've came quite close to having best friends HERE before. Kisses to you both!

Btw, I made a dedi for you guys at the event. Did they read it out? Hmm.

to closet: that's PRETTY intimate to know what is worn underneath! lol.

to teh: The performance was great, too bad nobody of my taste performing. This blog hopefully will link us after graduation. Mwahss to you too. I didn't seem to hear the dedication read out. They were too many anyway.
