This year, we celebrated 1st Day of Aidilfitri at Ipoh i.e. ayah's hometown. As raya fell on weekend, we left KL on Thursday to help Tok Chah kemas-kemas rumah and did some last-minute shopping. We went to Jusco Ipoh with Maksu and Kak Lissa (psst...her parents were still working on the last day before raya...so we kidnapped her to Jusco).
Oh ya ! Ayah and me kena selsema. So we went to Ipoh Specialist Hospital to get some medicine. You know what ? The service was very lousy. We were pushed from one building to another just to get clarification on medical benefits of ayah though the hospital is listed as one of the panels. As we opted to see Medical Officer only and not specialist, we were asked to go to a room where all accidents and emergency cases are treated. The hospital does not have a proper room for a doctor to examine outpatients. Huh ! We have blacklisted the hospital for any medical treatment. Hospital saja besar tapi service macam 3rd world country ! Well...sorry for blowing out of proportion. Ayah just want to let the steam out of his head on the very last day of puasa ! hahahah
Back to the raya story, Pak Long, Mak Long and Kak Lissa balik Raub right after buka puasa on the last day of Ramadhan. So, Raya this year is pretty sempoi without my cousin. Only Tok Chah, Mak Su, Ayah and Umi at home. When I think about it, raya will be like this forever as Ayah and Pak Long have decided to take turn celebrating raya with Tok Chah. Mmm....
Rumah Tok Chah ada nasi minyak, lemang, ketupat and rendang ayam on the 1st day of raya. Yummy !!!! We didn't visit anybody on the 1st day of raya but few people/families visited us including budak-budak basikal yang datang dari kampung mana tah datang beraya and nak kutip duit raya.
On the 2nd day, we went to Penang to visit Tok Long, Tok Teh, Tok Lang and Tok Su. Penat...memang penat...
