This year Raya is celebrated like it never existed. I totally forgot about it - that’s the first issue, another is because no one in Perth is celebrating it…!
GeeeZ.. I still remember last Raya was a lonely one… I ‘ran’ to Johor because I was alone in Singapore... It happened kinda impromptu actually… I blogged about the looniness first then decided that “this is not it…!” So, I packed my bag and went for the border… while trying to contact Cat (a Malaysian friend who’s also working in Singapore – and still is, who owns a house in Johor at that time…) just trying my luck to get hold of her so I can crash at her place for the night…
Anyway, JB ended up in Johor with me too…! I can’t remember how/ why JB had gone with me back then, but it was at a time that I didn’t know he’s got his heart on me yet… I guess he might have sounded casual that I say: “Yeah why not? Come along and I’ll show you Johor.” <-- sounds like me?
So we went to the movies, karaoke, and talked cock… Then as the night comes, we parted ways as I went back with Cat to her house… girl talked and played with her dog – snoopy... *wink*
And I guess that’s about it… my memory of the last Raya that I have celebrated…
I’m getting used to it now… missing out on the celebrations back home… sometimes it feels like I am losing my identity… but I prayed that it’s not the case… because every inch inside of me still feel and beat like a Malaysian…
cock here means Malaysian/ Singaporean way of talking none-sense/rubbish
