Malam raya. It was my favourite night ever. I felt so excited, my raya mood is turned on wild, hahah. There was a lot of colourful fireworks on the sky, which made me more excited to celebrate rayaaaa. My female cousin suggested to do some henna so yes-- I agreed but I didn't put it on my pure fingers (lol) because... I'm not sure whether my school will let students wearing henna or not so as precaution, I decided to not put any henna on my fingers. Oh yessss, I LOVE HENNA. The smell of it turns me on. On that malam raya, we spent our precious time by doing henna. We used traditional method-- picked up some daun inai and smashed them using mortar. It was tiring but fun-- I gained some muscles, hahah.
Pagi raya. It was the busiest and noisiest morning ever. Whoever gets to wake up early, he/she is very very lucky because my kampung's bathroom type is 'first come, first serve'. For your information, that luckiest person was me, hahah *hidung kembang. After performing Subuh prayer, I was just laying down and looking through my phone. My Whatsapp was flooded with 'Selamat Hari Raya' wishes, huh, really can't handle the sound of notification so I turned the Mute mode. In my opinion, Mute is more peaceful than Vibrate. Jangan contohi saya.
I waited until 7.15 a.m. to take a bath. It was too cold for me if I take my bath on 7.00 a.m. There was a lot of difference, okay. Bla bla bla and then I wear my baju kurung-- floral purple and a plain, purple shawl (nice combination, right? Heheh but sorry to say I don't have the #ootd picture). That style was totally simple yet stylish. Hmm, baju kurung nowadays have high sense of fashion and too much of elegant element. I prefer the simple one due to one this reason. Just one reason. I had to wash the dishes, top up kuih raya and buat air. Wait-- I mean, 3 reasons, heheh.
It took so long to wear the shawl. I spent almost 12 minutes to choose the suitable style because-- I looked through many shawl style and there was A LOT , LIKE -- OH MY GOD. I tried this style, that style. Yes, I wasted 30 minutes just for a shawl. What the fish. Lilit sana, lilit sini, pin situ, pin sini and tadaaaa! Phewww, satisfied. If my shawl was in a bad condition, I also would be in a bad mood the whole day. I really wanted to wear makeup for the first day of raya, put some bb cream to cover my darkspots and apply lipstick on my lip but I decided to not doing that. My type of skin is sensitive skin so I don't want any breakouts occur. It's so hard to take care of my face, anyway.
After that, I looked through my group chat, Poopies Squad. We had an agreement to online together in the morning of first day raya. WHY? We had given kad raya from each other, respectively so we planned to read our kad raya together. I was so touched after reading their wishes and felt happy at the same time like-- I almost wanted to scream and tell the world I love my poopies so much. My pretty Mak Cik, my cutie Pikachu, my precious Lepat and my lovely Cekodok. Nice nickname, right?

Please spend your time with the relatives, family and friends. Raya setahun sekali je, the only celebration which a big family can gather together so appreciate the moment. By the way, I feel like first day raya happened so fast. Well-- time flies so fast, you know. Sometimes, I don't like my cousins and sometimes I like them but we're still close as we're siblings because we grew up together since we were kids. We argued but then become close again. Blood is thicker than water, okay, hahah.
