Raya Raya Raya

Aidilfitri dah masuk hari ke-8. It has been quite a good raya for me. But in terms of celebration, taklah semeriah macam raya-raya yang lepas. Tahun ni pun shopping raya pun tak banyak sangat because I don’t have anything to buy pun. My baju melayu is still in a good condition. I used my last raya punya. To me, there’s no need for you to waste if the baju melayu is still good. Maybe next raya I will get a new one. 

My first day of raya was pretty much the same as previous years. Went to my uncle’s house and granma’s place. The best thing about raya to me is the food and of course, this is the only time you’ll get to have everyone together. Yelah kan, usually semua org akan busy during the normal days so susah nak jumpa dan bertanya khabar.

The rest of raya days, ada yang I ikut my parents pergi beraya, ada yang duduk rumah saje dan ade jugak I went out with my friends. Like the other day, I went out with one of my friends, Wan. We went for karaoke because he was bored and so was I. We karaoked (is there such word? Haha) for almost 3 hours. From Sogo (the karoke place, Red Box Ria) we jalan kaki to Masjid Jamek LRT Station.

Sambil-sambil tu, melihat-lihat la jugak keadaan bandaraya Kuala Lumpur. I would love to take pictures but my phone camera is not that good, so malas. Sampai dekat situ, ingat plan nak tengok wayang because malas nak balik rumah awal-awal but then after spending almost half an hour time looking for cinema’s phone numbers and show schedule, we cancelled the plan. Instead we jalan kaki again from Masjid Jamek to Puduraya’s area. 

I’m not really familiar with that area and I’ve never actually jalan kaki around that part of the city. Sampai area Puduraya, I was feeling hungry so we tried to find any place to eat, but my appetite was more to real food instead of fast food, so we couldn’t find one.

I joked, maybe we should walk from Puduraya to Bukit Bintang because malas nak naik LRT. Guess what? We did. We walked. It was damn far and tiring but it was something fun because I’ve done that before in my whole life. I think we walked like around 2 km? Crazy huh? Yeah. 

Then we arrived kat Bukit Bintang area and we chose to eat at one of the famous nasi ayam restaurants over there. Actually, I chose to eat there and he just followed me. Thanx =). After we had our dinner, we walked straight ahead to Sg Wang plaza and did some shampoo shopping. After that, sebab dah penat and it was around 9 pm dah masa tu, we decided to just balik. We walked from Sg Wang to STAR LRT Hang Tuah’s Station. 

Yes, it was like a marathon. Damn tiring but like I said, it was fun. I had fun that day. 

Anyway, that was few days ago. For your information, I have actually left marcusevans. Why? Because I have this brilliant plan of furthering my studies. I actually asked for a transfer from the sales department to the marketing and my manager asked to write a resignation letter and wait for the marketing people to call me because he already forwarded my resume to them. 

The problem is now, they did call me like few days ago, but the person yang call I didn’t know the real situation. I guess he wasn’t supposed to know pun kot. Whateverla. I screwed up my “unexpected” phone screen. So basically, I have totally lost my job. How sad right? So I ended up applying jobs using jobstreet. I was very worried because I was unemployed, yet again. 

I applied for a job with Mongoose Publishing, located in Menara Ambank (somewhere around KLCC for those yang nak tahu, the tall building behind Public Bank HQ) and they called me for an interview which I went on Friday, and after a good session of interview, I got the job! 

Alhamdulillah. I didn’t expect to get a job that soon, but prolly it was meant to be. They offered me a good salary and I’m going to start on the 1st November. So I have like 2 weeks of free time to waste now. Yuhu! Oh by the way, my position in the company would be, Research Executive. 

Things are going pretty well for me. Alhamdulillah. Berkat raya maybe. Haha. I have so many other things to write, but at the moment I’m so sleepy. I guess I need to get some sleep first because tomorrow, I would be slightly busy than usual. Why? Raya la! Hehe

I guess it is still not too late for me to wish my readers, Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Maaf Zahir dan Batin. Goodnite =)

p/s: I miss you so much Awak. Dunno why. But I do.
