Balik Raya

Masa taip nie I was on my way from Subang Airport to KLIA by taxi bajet. It took me almost an hour with the quite helpful traffic. Being virtually penniless, going back to Malaysia for Raya selama seminggu is never in my plan. But human plan, and He plans too. So here I am back in our beloved tanah air. I seem to fall in love with this tanah air words a lot lately.

Kenapa tetiba balik ? 

Sebab nak tunang hikhik.

Siapa percaya ayat atas tu dah boleh hantuk kepala kat dinding. Sebenarnya sebab cuti raya kali nie boleh tahan panjang which is 9 days  lepas tu aku extend beberapa hari buat cuti aku sendiri jadi total cuti 12 hari. Bear in mind, beberapa hari yang di extend tu adalah untuk perjalanan balik dan pergi sahaja. So still masa berlibur (?) di Malaysia adalah 9 hari. Nie antara sebab aku tak suka jadi orang pantai timur haha sebab perjalanan sahaja take 2 days nak boleh sampai rumah. Kikiki

Tahun nie raya mana?

Macam biasa, family aku tak raya Terengganu. Kenapa? Sebab nenek sebelah ibu memang duduk KT so hari hari boleh jenguk. (walaupun tak hari hari pergi) . Tapi ayah asal Batu Pahat dan nenek sebelah ayah cuma boleh jumpa bila ayah dapat cuti panjang je which is antara satunya masa raya Aidilfitri je. Sedih kan. So kira macam ibu beralah lah tak pe je tak raya sebelah Terengganu for Syawal. Aidiladha biasa ayah tak cuti (oncall every time) so celebrate raya haji selalu kat Ganu.

How's Raya? 

Since nie first balik raya after three years, dia punya perasaan to the moon takyah cakap lah. If I was asked cuti mana paling best , this was it. I met everyone that I want to meet. I hugged everyone I have been longing for. 4 tahun tak jumpa. Lama gila tak jumpa and everyone dah besar matang sihat semua. Thank you for taking good care of yourselves so well. Terharu gila aku diorang ingat aku. And a few jiran nyai (nenek) in Johor still recognize me. It hurts me that now they are aging, I'm afraid this will be our last meet. 

Dan 2016 juga kali pertama aku beraya dengan kawan-kawan di Terengganu. 21 tahun hidup I never get the chance to celebrate Eidl Fitri with any of my schoolmates. Sebab biasa we (me and family) spent like 8 days in Johor before going back to Terengganu. And once dah sampai Terengganu, dah start sekolah balik. 

So here a few raya picture. Ehehehe.

To my surprise, I didnt have any photo of me myself in baju raya. It's such a wonder untuk seorang makhluk yang gemar kamera like me actually. I guess being together already satisfied me enough to not even bother to take photos. I took a lot of my family's photos instead. Haha



Upon boarding the plane, I get all misty eyed at the first sight of sky. But considering I had wuduk , I held in the tears and quickly performed Solat Asar in flight. Actually I was quite embarassed too with a pakcik Cina beside me if I sobbed too hard. I once cried macam tak ingat dunia lepas tu orang sebelah pandang pelik. Eleh Ganu-KL je pun drama kan. That must be his thought masa tu pfft. 

Sampai ketemu again, Malaysia. I already miss you now. But Y is with me now, and the pak cik teksi too. Takkan nak nangis depan depa . So memalukan if I did cry betul-betul kann.

It amazes me how the blue sky gives you different feeling at different times. It is the first thing I looked up for once I arrived hospital every morning . And it is the last thing I wish I would see every time I need to leave Malaysia. One morning, it inspires me . And another day, it hurts me a lot.
