Tired out from hari raya.
Hari Raya used to be sooo enjoyable for me! Not only cos of the green packets but course of all they very lively gatherings that i'll have with family and friends.
This year is pretty different though. Having school during raya and with tests to study for, hari raya outings are really not on the top of my list. So far i've cleared the people whom I have to visit and I am not looking forward to any raya outings till my mid=terms are cleared, my catching up with school work is done and all lab reports are handed in.
There's just so much to catch up with! I don't really dread school just wished I had more alone time for me to catch up with tutorials and much needed reading!
3 more days to Organic Chem Test. 4 more days to dateline for Lab Report.
Even though I'm not really that enthusiastic for raya outings at this point, I had fun. I managed to roughly clear my mum's and dad's side and also got to meet my father. Dear accompanied me to meet my father cos I know it gets quite awkward when I meet him since I'm not so close to my father. Met my father's mum and his brother whom I've not met for 6 years or so. My father lives in Chinatown with his mum and his brother. I felt so weird wearing baju kurung in Chinatown.... so out of place. Must be wondering why my father, grandma and uncle live in Chinatown right? My late Grandpa is a chinese so my grandma moved in with him and stayed at Chinatown. They've been there ever since! Lol.
uncle, grandma, me, father.
my love and i!
After meeting my father, we headed to my grandma's place at Woodlands. Grandma's been asking me to bring him to her place for hari raya. So since we were already out, we just made our way there. Grandma's sister from Malaysia was in Singapore to celebrate hari raya. My youngest cousin and uncle and aunt, however went back to KL already. My cousin won't be able to enter singapore for 2 months cos she extended her stay here le. I miss that naughty girl already!
 Grandma's sister, Me, Grandma, Sayang!
My Uncle Chu and I. :)
Uncle Chu's nu peng you, Auntie Nat!
:) my love and i again!
I didn't really update about the first few days of raya. It was super fun being able to meet all my cousins and family again. I have photos to show! :) We didn't really go raya visiting much this year cos of the secondary school examinations plus the fact that I have exams. We still reached home quite late thougth. Pretty shagged over this few days but I guess, this only comes once a year. Owh wells! The spirit of raya. Haha!
First Day of Hari Raya
All my cousins on my mum's side. (minus my elder sisters who had to work!)

Well, i best be off to lala land. BS104 lab later!
