My Eid...

How was evertone's Eid? I hope you all had a wonderful time!

The Eid vacation is still on! So, take full advantage of it! lol

So, how is your Eid like? Mine is pretty traditional...

On the first day, we'd go to my father's side of the family. Meet & greet at my uncle's & stay there all day. Sometimes, I'd go to visit my sister's in laws at night, or go out to dinner with my cousins.

On the second day of Eid, it's my mother's side of the family's turn. We'd gather up at my uncle's & have lunch & stay till evening just like with my other uncle on the first day.

On the third day, we don't go to visit anyone, but usually my sis & uncle would visit us.

So, our Eid is pretty traditional, as I mentioned earlier. But I love it more when things change & we go out to a restaurant or hit the malls or do whatever differently. It's nice to have a change every once in a while. But usually, we'd do these things after Eid... (you, know how CROWDED! places can be during Eid!)

So this is pretty much what my Eid is all about.

So, how is yours??

:)

Eidkom Mbarak :)

I just wanna wish all Muslims around the world a blessed Eid Fitr!

Taqabalah Allah ta'atkom, wo kul aam wontow b'khair! :)

Today was an awesome day! May Allah bless us all with so many Eids to come, ya rab! & may we all be joyous & happy all round year! Say Ameen!

Love you, & wishing you a happy Eid :)

So hurry up Sophie Kinsella fans!!! RSVP to the event now before it's too late! The event will start from 6:00 pm till oo:oo am KWT.

I'm sooooo HAPPY! I have only dreamed about this. This is the closest for me to meet her in person! And now that I got a chance to actually 'interact' with one of my TOP fave writers, I really don't know what to say or ask her! LOL

But I can't wait!

I wish I get to really talk with her! Pray for me! hee hee

If you are a fan of hers, what would u say to her? What would u ask her about? (I still don't know as I mentioned above).

What are your fave SK's? I loved all the ones I read so far, but the ones I re-read more than once are Can you Keep a Secret, Shopaholic & Sister, & The Undomestic Goddess. Bunch of hilarious laughes! hee hee

I can't wait to read the rest! Esp, Remember Me (which I have bought & poor dear is begging me to find time to read it! hee hee), & Twenties Girl which sounds so charmingly new! Can't wait to get it!

So, feel free to share your thoughts with me (& Sophie, in case she pops in here! :D )

***

For those of you who might not be too familiar with the name of Sophie Kinsella, remember The Confessions of a Shopaholic movie? Well, she's the writer of the novel of the movie adaptation :)

This pic is a special dedication for u 6amoo7a ;)
