"Mamachu! Stop kissing me!"

Amirudin Mahmud Girls.

Had a very big day today, where all the girls in my family went Baju Raya (Raya clothes) shopping. Ramadan starts tomorrow where muslims fast for a month and Hari Raya (Raya Day) is an islamic celebration that marks the end of Ramadan. It usually a two day celebration where we dress in our best traditional Malaysian outfits and visit people's houses, give or receive ang poa (packets of money) and eat until we pass out.

Usually i am big on Raya shopping because i get new clothes, shoes, handbag and etc. But this time...i couldn't care less. It took me less than 5 minutes to decide what colour and style i want - Black/Baju Pahang (Different states in Malaysia have different styles of traditional outfits). I felt a little bad that i picked a morbid colour cause Raya celebrations is supposed to be about happiness, unity and forgiveness. Black is the opposite of that. So i decided to be cliche and match with my parents - Emerald Green. Best part about the day was hanging out with my niece!!! She has grown so much since the last i saw her!!! I was worried she might not recognise me but hey, she has the coolest *Mamachu! she came running to me!!! 

*Bongsu pronounced as bong-sue means youngest in Johor (a state in Malaysia, where my parents are from) slang, but the slang evolved from "sue" to "chu" like choo-choo train. Alani calls me Mamachu because im her youngest "mama" She can easily call me Aunty Kay, but i like to make things harder for her :P

In a month time, you get to see me in my Baju Raya!
