SLEEPING SUN - NIGHTWISH
TODAY, CLEANED THE WHOLE HOUSE EXCEPT FOR MY ROOM (WHICH IS YET TO BE DONE SOON). FIRST, WAS THE LIVING ROOM, NEXT WAS THE MINI GARDEN AND LASTLY, THE TOILET. TOILET CLEANING TOOK ME 4 HOURS BECAUSE I HAD TO SCRUB THE WALLS AND THE FLOOR. NOW, IT'S MY ROOM'S TURN TO BE CLEANED. I THINK I'LL DO THAT IN THE EVENING BEFORE MASHING THE POTATOES. THAT'S MY FAVOURITE WORK! DONE WITH ARRANGING THE KUEHS TOO.
I PREFER CELEBRATING AT MY GRANDMOTHER'S KAMPONG. I LOVE CHASING THE BABY CHICKS. I REMEMBERED NAMING THEM BLOSSOM, BUBBLES AND BUTTERCUP. THEY WERE ORPHANS. THE MOTHER HEN WAS KILLED DURING A FIGHT AND I'M CLUELESS ABOUT THE FATHER. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO CHASE THEM AT FIRST. I TOLD MY COUSIN, FARHANA, TO BLOCK THEM AT THE FRONT WHILE I BLOCKED THEM FROM BEHING. THEY WERE STUCKED IN THE MIDDLE AND I CAUGHT BUTTERCUP! NEXT, I CAUGHT BUBBLES! BUBBLES WAS THE MOST ADORABLE ONE. SHE WAS SO YELLOWISH!
NEXT IN THE MORNING, WAITED FOR THE ELDERS TO COME BACK FROM THE MOSQUE. THEN, THE SHEEPS AND A COW CAME. ONE OF THE SHEEPS WAS MINE AND I NAMED IT ISKANDAR. THE SLAUGHTERING WAS AWESOME! YET, SCARY. ESPECIALLY WHEN THE BLOOD GUSHED OUT SO FAST. IT TOOK A FEW MINUTES FOR THE ANIMAL TO DIE. I COULD HEAR THE HEAVY BREATHINGS OF THEIRS. ACTUALLY, I'VE POSTED THE PICTURES BEFORE IN ONE OF MY PREVIOUS BLOGS. I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT'S THE URL AS I OWN MANY BLOGS. COUNTLESS!
FRANKLY SPEAKING, I CAN'T FEEL THE HARI RAYA HAJI SPIRIT. IT'S LIKE TOMORROW WILL BE A NORMAL DAY. I WONDER HOW THE PILGRIMS ARE DOING. IT'S GREAT TO PERFORM A RITUAL CALLED TAWAF AROUND THE KAABA. I ALSO WONDER HOW WAS LIFE DURING MUHAMMAD'S TIME.
I THINK... I CAN'T WAIT FOR TOMORROW! MEE SOTO AND LONTONG GORENG! *SLURP!* ANYWAY, I WANT TO WISH TO ALL MUSLIMS OUT THERE A HAPPY HARI RAYA AIDILADHA! EAT 5 PLATES OR MORE! DON'T JUST EAT A PLATE. YOU BETTER EAT A LOT LIKE ME! GOODBYE! I WANT TO BUY KUEH TARTS. -_-
