Half of the people I know already bought their Eid costumes and started baking eid cookies. I was forced to purchase mine last weekend because my parents couldn't find any other time to bring us down to get them.
I love Eid because it's a festival filled with blessings and barakah but I hate how it's celebrated here in my country.
Yes, 30 days of Shawal means 30 days of Celebration/Eid.
Wallah, I get sick and tired of visiting and all that hustle and bustle of moving about in a group and raiding people's homes.
It's probably because I am not a "celebratory" person because I never get very interested with parties/festivals lol.
The only thing that I actually look forward to when it comes to eid is the night BEFORE eid and the morning of eid.
Otherwise, count me out. I'm the last person to ask along for a visiting session. I usually tag along because my friends insist and because I want to spend time with them.
& No, I am not interested to meet my extended family - so extended that I start to hear about aunties that I have never heard of and when I actually do meet them the first question I'd get would be, "SO! What are you studying?!"
I'd usually just reply "Haha, I live in a cave and I don't study" Okay lol joking, my dad would kill me :(
So, what's up with y'all this eid? :)
