Happy Eid Mubarak 2017

Although I do not celebrate Hari Raya, I would still respect this celebration in my country. This celebration is a part of the culture in my country, same goes to other celebrations like Chinese New Year, Harvesting Festival, Deepavali, and Christmas. Despite all of that, I'm glad that I had multicultural friend circles.

On the 3rd Day of Syawal(Raya Day 3), my friends and I decided to visit a friend's open house. Only the four of us were able out of seven in our group who could make up time to visit. It was around 6.30 in the evening. The day was already dark as the cumulonimbus cloud was already forming and a little bit of drizzle started to give in. It was not that easy to get to my friend's open house, though we made it eventually. It was around 1900 hours by the time we got there and we were welcomed with open hands. Talked a lot about what we were doing, how's life was going and mostly sharing our experienced predicaments. By the way, she should be proud of her home-made cakes because they were so delightful in my mouth.


On the 4th Day of Syawal(Raya Day 4), I had other friends to visit to. Like 4 houses to be exact. It was tired but it was worth it. Open houses are for getting our community to get along. That day was a wrap for this year's Hari Raya celebration.
