the raya grinch *updated*

i really cant stand raya jingles.
i hate all the festive songs people seems to play everywhere.
once, i walked out of a store just because the raya they were playing were grating on my nerves.
i hate all the fuss about food to break fast with.
i hate all the fuss about celebrating raya.
i cant stand the chores and workloads i have to do preparing the house for raya.
i hate being in the kitchen cooking for raya.
i hate the food planning, the decoration planning, the clothes planning, the visitation planning.
i hate people coming over for raya.
i hate going over peoples place for raya.
i cant stand cousins looking at you and comparing your raya outfits price.
i hate it when relatives look at you and comment on your current weight gain.
i hate the packing and the rush of long distance journeys for raya.
i hate the same boring food and kuih everyone serves.
i hate the pitiful look aunts give me when they found im still single.
i utterly despise the pathetic matchmaking efforts.
i hate the emotional blackmail involves in inviting friends over or friends inviting you over.
i hate seeing how much older everyone gets year after year.
i hate watching the obvious inbred duit-raya greed parents nuture their kids with.


i hate raya.
im hating this raya. i shall hate the next one.

.:. feeling petulant, jaded, cynical, bitchy, bitter and bored. this feeling would pass.

.:. *update* feeling hasnt pass. more cousins coming this weekend. im buying a uzi.

well, you're lucky our convoy didn't make it past Selangor, or you'd either enjoy our company, or threaten us with a spoon by the end of the day

1st day of raya, had to go to class, had a quick raya lunch n rushed to work till 8 at nite. next day, did nothing remotely raya-ish. id say, my raya was crap. had more fun celebrating halloween.
