Delayed Post a-coming~

7-11-2005, Monday, fourth day raya.

A new semester begins! Will, begin actually. This week. Today! There’s been a lack of posts since raya starts. I’ll just give a quick update. This year is the first time my grandmother was not here for raya. She decides to raya in Miri this year. *sob sob*. But all is not lost. Wew managed to cover all the important relatives (grandparents’ siblings) houses on the first day. And that’s rare. Usually we go there at night but we got home not long after noon. So um, yay. Second day, we have an open house. Like always. And like always, we have all those unknown strangers that just pop out of nowhere into our house. Seriously, they marked our home on the second day of Eid just to get angpau or something. Hey, its not like we dont want having them here. But they just let themselves in, make themselves at home and wont leave until we give them money! And it didnt help the fact that most of them lack manners! This year its no longer my job giving away angpau :P. I have retired and enjoying my retirement by inviting MY friends over! Mwahahaha! But still, those weirdos keep coming. I can finally let someone else deal with them. And perhaps because I have grown up a bit and no longer held as much compassion for these weirdos, I just dont care anymore if they just sit there with no one tending to them after serving them drinks. The same goes for those kids. They dont seem to mind, why should we care, right? We are good to them and we let them eat and stuff. We do have people to tend to ourselves, btw. It would be rude to ignore the guests you invited. So yeah. That’s what I want to say. Some of them are even as shameless as to say "is your parents home? No, dont have to serve me drinks. I just want to ask for money". Sheesh. The nerve of these people! Don’t they have any pride? Self-esteem?? MANNERS?!
That just ticks me off. So that’s why I let my younger sister handles them. She’s a klutz and messes up a lot, but when it comes to them, who cares? AT least she still have the heart to feel compassions or whatever for them. Me I just dont care anymore. Call me arrogant or anything, but they werent sincere coming to our house in the first place. :P
The eve of the 2nd and 3rd day I slept late because I had to help out in the kitchen. Man, this is why I’m glad raya comes only once a year. Imagine having to do this often! *shrieks*. But ahem, I wanna thanks you guys for coming over hehehe. Maybe I can do the same to you on Chinese New Year eh? hehehehe. I can help you thrash the place. I didnt go out much today. Just one house. My cousin’s. She’s having an open house (on the 4th day? O.o) But its nice having open houses on the odd days where there are few people left to do open house. And laksa sarawak! Yum yum. Its nice when people you invite or people who said they are coming, keep their words. It just pisses you off big time when they don’t. You feel hur and betrayed especially when these people werent sorry. Dont they know people are expecting!? That’s just rude. I amde a point that if people didnt come to my house after I invite them or they dont keep their words, and not giving me a good reason, I will not return the visit. Trust me. Its better this way. :P
