to liven things up a little. it's not fair (or nice) to make people feel depressed reading my blog.
so to spruce things up, hari raya is approaching! in... 9 more days! all my hari raya cookies are done (finally), and now my back's aching from making 2kg worth of pineapple tarts just now. i'll be shopping for my songket baju kurung in JB this saturday. since i won't have any school from this saturday all the way to next wednesday, a lot of hari raya preparations can be done. this includes baking all the cakes, changing the cushions and curtains as well as shop for shoes (i hope Charles and Keith have nice heels) and bags (or rather, a wristlet). then on thursday, i'll be busy helping my mum to prepare the ingredients to cook the hari raya dishes which will have to be cooked by friday afternoon. and i want lampu lap-lip.. you know, those colourful lights? i saw my neighbour's on the opposite block and i am so jealous. lampu lap-lip adds to the hari raya atmosphere. but apparently i can't find cheap, nice ones in the woodlands area.
and i just realised that i'll be able to do add maths better when i'm listening to dikir barat music and hari raya songs. seriously. in the afternoon i was listening to random tracks by peterpan and ungu and i couldn't seem to know how to do. sekali at night, switch on dikir barat and hari raya songs, i can do those questions pretty fast.
i like this song; it's a must-have spin on the radio every year since it was released a few years back:
it's a happy song, the tone that is pretty common in most hari raya songs.
and i like the lyrics.. i forgot the literary term, but it has something to do with repetition.
and Siti Nurhaliza's pretty as well as have a sweet voice..
and my rose has bloomed!
i'll spare you the agony of me typing out lyrics to The Rose by Westlife.
