Raya greetings.

Back in my high school days, I've always been known to be the one who has endless words to pour out when it comes to birthday wishes, graduation night cards, good luck banners, and festive greetings (e.g: Raya Aidilfitri, Raya Aidiladha, Chinese New Year, Deepavali, you name it).

However, it didn't take me long to jump off that bandwagon and become undeserving of being anywhere near that infamous label.  People used to look forward to what I had to say about them when their birthdays came around.  People hoped and waited for their birthdays solely to receive a long-ass handwritten card by me (Well, perhaps not solely, but meh.)

So, all the throwbacks aside, I just realised that Ramadhan flew off in a blink, and here's Eid rolling around the corner like it's no big deal.  Like, hello, my body's not ready for you yet, Syawal.  But that's the reality of time nowadays, I guess.

But back to my point, just to show how exponentially bad I became at Raya greetings (or even just replying back) :

Not only did I ignore his Raya wish, I had to be honest about it too. *smacks forehead*

But hey, I made up for it the following year!

Made sure that I was the first one this time around.

Just goes to show how much things could change in a year.  Looking forward to many more Raya(s) with this one, and the rest of my loved ones.  

Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir & Batin.
xo.
