Aaah the laziness!

I got up in the morning and put on jeans, a neat shirt and then went downstairs to say “Happy Eid” to my mom. In this eid, we don’t dress up from the morning like Eid al-Fitr, but we leave all the dressing up for the night, at least our family does. My mom was in the kitchen doing everything from cutting, poling, grilling and the smell was just delicious. She at occasions like these does not trust anyone to do the work but her. So I was by her side, just watching, and as I was doing so she kept saying stuff like: “When you have your own home. You’ll be doing this soon!” Oh my dear MAMA! I could never do it as perfect as you do.. besides, it sounds like an exhausting job >_<

I went inside to wake up my brother who kept saying “I’ll wake up I’ll wake up” without actually doing so. At that time, my dad walked into the house, he was neatly dressed and you can tell that he had the Eid spirit. All of us went to him, kissed his head and with a smile he gave us the money! :P Afterwards we went to our grandmother’s house and had lunch with her, a tradition we kept for years.

Today also happens to be my big sis’s birthday, she’s 4 years older than me, engaged to be married and I just adore her!. I finally managed to get her a birthday gift yesterday. However she did get some earlier gifts, An apple Mac book from her fiancé, – I guess he was depressed with the HP laptop she always brought with her– and a cool wallet from her close friend which looks exactly like mine but she never dared to say that to her.. it's a gift so who would? >_<

Me and my cousin surprised her with a chocolate cake at my aunt’s house. It was so much fun seeing the surprised expression on her face. I brought her a golden D&G necklace, and I was relieved to find her very happy with it. Afterwards we went out for dinner, just the family at the famous Lenotr. We had a table outside and the weather was just magnificent! To make things better, at the end of our meal, it started to rain simple drops to present us with a perfect atmosphere of freshness.

HapPpY Eid ALL :*
