Look what my daddy just surprised me with! (Updated. Just found out that it requires Mac OS X v10.6.4 also known as Snow Leopard. Bummer. Guess i have to hand it over to Phat then. Happy tracking fatty!) And yes i am back with my old hairstyle. Have a good day lovelies!

Salam Lebaran VIII

We were unanimous when it came to the kuih tart. Hands down, they were the tastiest ones we ever came across throughout Syawal so far.

Papa and two of his buddies.

Since no one else were at home for us to visit, papa decided to call his friend whom he had bonded with while on his pilgrimage last June. I swear he is one of the most soft spoken man i have got the chance to meet. He and his wife were such gracious hostesses.

Salam Lebaran VII

Instead of having the luxury to wind down the day with a bottle of Yakult, legs stretched out lazily on the coffee table (and maybe a tub of Ben & Jerry's on one hand), i had to change out of the day's clothes into a baju kurung for more visiting since papa was around. We left right after maghrib and managed to conquer three houses, reaching home minutes before midnight.

Seri was missing as she was out with her friends as usual hence i got to occupy her vacant seat.

I had to crop one third of the picture below because i was stuck at the corner by the railings meddling with the straps of my heels.

Middle east meets lost samsui woman.

One week after...

We swapped our baju kurungs for some laid back attire, casual but still decent and appropriate. My siblings and i were late due to school and we arrived when everyone else were eating. Nevertheless, the brief time spent with them were nothing short of amazing.

What is wrong with my hair and the bloated mass that is my face?

Such poor quality grainy photos! This only proves to show how dependent I am now towards the Nex-5.

Until next time! (40 days after...)

Three days after...

If there is one thing that we can gain from atuk's departure is how his death has brought us together.

I grabbed this from Izza who took this comical shot of Khidhir in his jubah and kopiah.

Once prayers were successfully completed, it was time for us to dig in!

Papa was more concerned with being able to catch a soccer match live from his iPad.

My brother, retired from his ustaz stint, with his fellow comrades.

Hun, thank you for taking time off to join my family and i for our majlis kenduri tahlil. I'm sure you know by now how much your presence means to me and I was heartened by how easily you were able to get along with cousins from my paternal side, most of whom you have only met for the first time.
