It is 5.56 am in the morning. I just got back from "sahur" a.k.a supper with some of my friends. Actually, we went to hang out at Cheras Downtown, which is one of the most popular midnight markets in Kuala Lumpur. Yeah, I prefer to call it a midnight market. Don't ask why. You have got to see it by yourself. It is truly a shopping heaven and as it is 5 days to go before Eid-ul Fitr, the place was packed by a sea of people and vehicles swarming every inch of the area.
I bought a "baju melayu" for my big brother which cost me a considerable RM65.00. Before that, my big brother had listed 4 colours for me to choose for his "baju melayu". Gold, maroon, pink or Manchester United red. I'd always thought that he would look great in maroon, so I decided to buy the maroon one. Not that he wouldn't look any better in those other 3 colours, but I thought maroon would enhance his fair skin. Haha. So there you go, maroon won! It wasn't hard for me to buy the "baju melayu", even though I never bought one before. That was because I had a bunch of guys, Saeful, Remy, Bidy and Ikhwan who were together with me looking for it. They had helped me so much in terms of choosing the suitable fabric and nice pattern for the "baju melayu". I also managed to get 3 beautiful "baju melayu" buttons for RM7.00. Credit to those lovely guys.
Oh and I also bought some cookies for the big day. Almond London, Pineapple Tarts, bla bla. And oh, guess what? I haven't bought my Raya clothes yet. Huwaaa. I haven't decided yet but I'd always thought about getting a black "baju kurung". I will pay a visit to Tunku Abdul Rahman Street on Saturday, so let's hope that I can find something nice for me to wear on the big day.
So, I would love to end this entry by wishing all of Muslims in the world a "Eid-ul Fitr Mubarak" or "Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri" to all Malaysian Muslims. For all the wrongdoings, I would like to ask for your forgiveness and let's hope this coming Eid-ul Fitr will strengthen our relationship.
Tiara.

Sedak nyo...
I've been wearing the same baju melayu for 3 years already. Last year it was very frustrated because I haven't got the buttons on it (even though it looked fairly sexy with chest-open haha). So this year I bought three for the revenge! Hahaha.
And my advice is, since you have a camera, always keep that in your hand wherever you go and take a lot of photos! 2 or 3 years later you'll be laughing or crying... or flat face looking at the photos. You won't regret. The most important thing, HAVE FUN!! Don't let things like "baju kurung aku tempah tak sempat siap" or "pakwe aku tak leh raye ngan aku tahun ni" let you down. Happy Eid and Maaf Zahir Batin!

Thanks for your advice Faris.
By the way, things are looking very rosy for Raya this year.
I'm sure will have fun with my family and friends.
Same goes to you too, although you are gonna wear the same baju melayu.
Haha. Faris wore baju melayu with chest wide open? That was err...haha.
And no, no such things will ruin my Raya.
The camera is gonna perform, no matter what.
Happy Eid and Maaf Zahir Batin to you as well and Good Luck with the buttons!
:p
