Ramadan is coming. And I can't wait to do all of these like fasting, tarawih, 'berbuka', sahur, the excited-ness waiting for 'buka puasa' time, and lots more. If last year I went for tarawih at Surau Taman Ukay Bistari and sometimes at Masjid Taman Melawati (behind the SKTM) but this year I'm planning to go to Masjid Bukit Antarabangsa. This masjed is the masjed that I went for last year Solat AidilFitr. And this year my responsibilities also been added one more. Before if I'm just my mom's assistance to cook for 'buka puasa' but this year it is totally my responsibilities as my mom doesn't really in a good condition. Hurm.. Hopefully I can cook deliciously because I'm not used to cook without tasting. Haha I wonder how is it going to taste.
In addition, if last year we celebrate Eid ul-Fitr in Kuala Lumpur there is a chance we might going back to my 'kampung' in Kuala Kangsar, Perak. Gathering and BBQ-ing and playing the 'mercun' aka fireworks. The preparation for Eid ul-Fitr hasn't started yet but soon it is going to be insyaAllah. To me, the last minute preparation is much much more fun as the feelings is more. (as I'm writing I'm smiling as I can't wait for it!). Well not so many things to be done for the preparation as I don't really have a big family that would come visit here at our house except my brothers and their family and some of my mom's siblings.
For the attire for that really special day, I might go and get Abaya and 'Baju Kurung' for myself...!! Can't wait to do the shopping! Girls will always be girls tho! Shoes, no need as my dear already give me a wedges for our anniversary last time. And it is still really new as I'm more to a sport shoes girl! I love walking fast and with those I can't. But I can't deny that my dear really good in choosing wedges. It really suit my taste. Like an EXPERT! For hijab, I might get one to match my new 'Baju Kurung' insyaAllah if I have extra $$ else I will just use the one that he gave to me! As he also loves seeing me wear it! Because he says that white really suits me but then I'm really contrast as whenever I shop, my stuff will be black in color! So if I need variety, I bring him along with me. I guess that's all for the attire.
For 'Kuih Raya', we already book it with my aunty's friend. We going to have approximately 3 types of it. Chip cookies, 'Kuih Tart' and another one I'm not really sure. Can't wait to get it! And taste it. Then the day before Eid ul-Fitr as usual since for the past 4-5years, I'm going to buy 'lemang' near the Zoo Negara! The best one. The place that sell it have this banner said 'Lemang Pak Ajai'. Well they really had the best one around this area. We tried few other places but none of them can beat the taste of their 'Lemang'! Nah talking bout it making my tummy craving for it now!
And last but not least, 'Kurma' aka dates. Something that is wajib for me to have for 'buka puasa'. For now at home I already have this dates from Khartoum. Which is real one. Not the one that have been dip with the sugar and all the other things. It's somehow like the nut. But really nice!
Ramadan and Eid ul-Fitr is still far but my imagination have bring me to that extent. May this Ramadan is going to be better Ramadan.
Marhaban Ya Ramadan!
