my FIRST Raya visit...

My intention to go Raya visiting last Sunday with my family didn't happened. I fell sick. With dry cough, sore throat, flu and spinning headache, I spent the entire Sunday resting at home. Oddly enough, my family spent their time in the car without much success too. Due to a change of plan from my uncle and unanswered calls from other houses, they had to retreat home.

But YES! Finally went Raya visiting. And the first house I visited was... Minah's house?! God!

Our plan to meet up @ noon over my place was postponed to 1pm. Minah, Pakcik, Makcik & I left for Minah's house @ 2.30pm. Waited, waited and waited for Wak & Man to arrive to have lunch together. In the end, we had lunch without them. We assumed that those 2 guys were busy "powdering their noses". =P

Wak & Man eventually arrived wearing purple baju kurungs. Haha!

Six of us then left for Wak's house. We looked thru the many photo albums of our younger school days and simply can't believe that it's been 11 years! Wow...

Over at Man's house, we had Tulang. Us ladies ate in moderation. But Wak was competing against Pakcik and lost. Makan pun nak lawan... This year, Pakcik stained his own shirt. Looks like us ladies will sit far far away from Pakcik (except Makcik) to avoid getting 'spray-painted'.

Mahanom joined us at our last house - the pengantin to-be house. Makcik cooked chicken and Hong Kong noodles for dinner. Or was it supper? Seems like we were constantly eating in each house! 4 houses, 7 of us and 10 hours later, we concluded our Raya outing seeking forgiveness from each other.

See ya all again on Makcik & Pakcik's wedding! =)
