anyways..i cant say enough how i feel that my mom is such a terrific cook. us girls spent the whole day in th kitchen starting at eleven and ending only when our guests start arriving. on the menu was my mom's famous mee siam (i never eat anyone else's mee siam), spagetthi bolognaise (which was wiped clean, i think because i prepared the pasta..hahaha), nasi jagung and ayam masak merah(my personal favourites!) and lots lots more with the other families bringing more food from sushi to donuts from Dunkin Donuts. Kak Ya brought us yummy cupcakes that she baked. it's really tasty, i love the fact that the cupcakes were not cakey with lots and lots of icing.
Then i decided to join them for their trip to the Bazaar. Although i live at Geylang and practically beside the Bazaar. I very very very rarely visit it and today was my first time this year. but of course despite the heat and the crowd, it was still just nice to look around at what they have. well it's similar to previous years. The sparkly kebayas, fake goods (hehhe), bunga api which the Eastwood family had their chance replenish their stock. Thank goodness cos Hari Raya Eve last year we had to drive around looking for bunga api....hahaha...the boys got themselves capal. so now besides matching baju kurung, they have matching footwear. us girls decided to be cooler than them. got meself my Hari Raya clutch! woohoo! white to match my shoes.
im very sad to hear that they are already airing Hari Raya songs :(
so ten days into Ramadhan. hope everybody have been having a fruitful Ramadhan. sem break next week! time to catch up with projects and assingnments. i've been holding up fine these days just a little bit of hiccups here and there. the thing about me is that i tend to look back a lot. but im taking life a step at a time. so i'll be signing off here..hopefully everybody would be able to collect extra "points" this Ramadhan.
so today it was my family's turn to host iftar for our extended family
