Raya is Here Again

Earlier i had planned not to go back to my hometown cause i have tons of work to do (yeah, sounds so cliche of me which i usually use coz i actually hate going back :P  )But anyway, i got a "distress" call from me sis saying that she had to go to her in laws on the Raya's eve so she need somebody to drive mama back to Perak.

Nevertheless, it was quite awkward going back to mama's hometown this year. Not only i hav to do all the driving (hehe, normally i could just sit at the back of the car and relax, got other ppl that'll drive) but also this time i'm the only male in the family that's available in my Aunt's house..

i reached Jelapang, Perak around 1am with all those heavy rains and traffics.. then we had the relative bonding chats till 3-4am... After that i got a short nap before i had to wake up for Raya's Prayer.
Its not Raya if u dont hav ketupat :P

Well, the followed activities were as usual kind activities that ppl do, visiting a few cemeteries, relatives houses.. etc.. etc.. Pretty bored i'd say..

Anyway, on second day of raya, i packed up my things and drove back to KL alone cause there's alot of work to do and i need internet connections to do it (yeah, i know there's 3G/gprs/ or wutever u guys are using, but no, i dont hav it :p ) My mom however will be staying in Perak a few days more where my sis will instead fetch her home.
Dangerous Act : Do not drive and take pictures :)

There was heavy rain again during my way back to KL, but at least this time the traffic was smooth. The journey was quite boring and i tried to SMS one of my frens to eliminate the boredom, but she seems not interested. SO end up a sing along to wutever there is on the radio instead.. huhuhu...
