Selamat Hari Raya to all!!!



Assalamualaikum and evening everybody,

2 more days we are going to celebrate Hari aRaya. Yeay!
Everybody in Kuala Lumpur started to go back to their hometown and make that congested city quite silent and not many cars or buses on road.
It's more like a city-fully-infested-with-zombie type of city - if you love to play games like resident evil and stuff, you will know what I mean.

So tomorrow, I'm going back to my hometown in Kelantan by car.
My friend asked
"Why with no flight ticket?"
It's because if my family all using airplane to go to Kelantan, than we don't have car to travel and visit my relatives.

My grandmother is staying alone and no transportation except her favourite old-and-rusty bicycle.
I once asked her
"Why Tok Ma don't want to change the bicycle? Even better, change to a motorcycle?"
She replied
"That bicycle still can be used, why need to spend money on something unnecessary?"
Well, I don't really agree with my grandmother. At least try to change it to a newer bicycle with almost same shape but she insist to keep that one.
Maybe that's the different between a city boy with a old lady living peacefully in Kelantan.

Because of that, my family need our own transportation.
Quite same with my principle though.
"If I want something, I rather buy one than keep on borrowing other's"
Two greatest drivers in this house, which are me and my dad, might be not fasting tomorrow to ensure the safe journey along the way.
I'm posting about not fasting here not because I'm proud or what but I soon realize that as a family leader, you need to sacrifice something just to promise your family safety.
Obviously we need to replace it back though.

Last year on 30th of Ramadhan, the very last day of fasting, me and my family were on the way to Kelantan for Raya Celebration - as usual.
I started to fell very dizzy and cold.
My mom aware with my condition at that time asked
"Something wrong?"
I said
"My head spinning and like want to vomit right away."
Then suddenly my dad, whom also a doctor and my idol, said
"Give me your hand."
I replied
"For what dad? I'm not feel very well right now and if possible I don't want to move a lot and try to sleep."
He said next
"Just give me your hand."
I give him my hand and he was holding it for 2-3 second with my brain keep guessing what was my dad doing? My head spinning over here!
"Hypoglycemia" He abruptly mention a word which is a jargon to me (at that time but not now).
He can deduce things while he's driving. OMG, I hope I can be a doctor like my dad too.
And because of that, I break fast right away and eat a lot of chocolate in front of my brothers and sister. XD
