Is There Such Thing As A "Belated Open House", People?
Salam Aidilfitri! Still very much in the raya mood eh? Yeah, I guess so. With loads and clashing open houses' invitations to fulfill plus packets of angpows to fill in too, for that matter; raya is still very much in the air. It's alive, it's alive!
Ramai gak kengkawan & officemate yang tanya bila nak buat open house bla bla. Looking at the calendar, it's almost impossible to squeeze in anything in this one-month celebrated ocassion. With friends' & families' open houses invitations, weddings,... I much doubt it, really.
1st Raya Weekend (5th - 6th Nov) - Flew back to KL from KB, raya belah Hani plak. Visited some relatives and close friends
2nd Raya Weekend (12th - 13th Nov) - Punk kawin. Flew back to KB with Zaki & Thina. Open houses GONE for Hani & Danish. Left my wife and son at my in-laws'
3rd Raya Weekend (19th - 20th Nov) - The 1st time we are attending open houses invitations, loads of em', you bet! Too many that we had to actually narrow down and sadly, cancel a few houses according to time and road loop. (Sorry!) Bukan tak sudi tapi coz of time constraint & traffic jem due to the heavy rain. Nak kena jaga jugak Danish punye tido and all kalau ye nak jalan pon or else I'll come to the office tomorrow morning with those big sacks under my eyes!
4th Raya Weekend (26th - 27th Nov) - Family dari KB datang berkampung kat my crib due to my cousin's wedding in Shah Alam, Zaki's Open house
Last Raya Weekend (3rd - 4th Dec) - Ayoi; ex-housemate kawin kat PD, Adik Zura kawin kat Jln Kebun, Abun; ex-schoolmate kawin kat Keramat, Open houses invitations...
6th December - Annivesary!
8th December - Mum gi haji.
Fuhhh, memang tak sempat nak buat any open house during those weekends. Tapi memang nak ajak jugak kengkawan datang umah. Bukan open house la kot, just a simple makan2 invitation. Kalau nak tunggu weekend, by the time I'll be able to gather all my friends and officemates, raya pon dah basi dah. Maybe kena buat a different day for different friend groups. My house pon ciput jer nak ajak smua datang skali. Serius cakap!
Anyway, tengok la camne. To all my friends, jangan risau gua akan panggil gak mai umah nanti, insya allah. Apa2hal, I'll keep you updated! Take care.
