But since its over, ntg much can be done..just hope for the best;) seriously HOPE pls dont make me disappointed again ;p
Just to share some of the pics I took during the Raya Week.

The specialties : Ketupat, Nasi Beriyani & Ayam Masak Merah
Besides the main course, there was another table full of side dishes like curry puff & spring roll.

Not to miss out, the huge varieties of cookies n cakess + bandung +cincau...yum yum;)

Sincere thanks to the stafford Peeps who hav done a good job preparing all those yum yum foods;) credits should be given to Vivi & Ali who has exam coming up but still bz cooking for 1 whole day just for this open hse...Thanks to ALL!


After having a filling brunch at Stafford, I was invited to another one at Everton Hall..this was for my late lunch n early dinner perhaps;p
There were delicious mihun soup n rendang served, since my stomach not allow me to fit much more so I just tried out the desserts instead ;p there were roti pudding, kek batik, choc ball, choc cakes, yummy cookies, jelly...I feel so Contented. Sweet.FULL! haha

Thanks Kay for inviting ;) do appreciate it..
Dint manage to take a group pic with all the host since they were all bz cooking n preparing the food at the kitchen, so just manage to snap one with Ain;) that is better than ntg..

Just the welly students itself hav make the Dewan Raya Packed, now plus with evyone from all over. Wow~ it was really ALot More Packed! hahaha but the more the meriah, that was the spirit isnt it? It makes me think of chinese new year somehow..
Dewan Raya was nicely decorated;) very in raya atmosphere.. since we wanted to accomodate more ppl, so no chair for the day ;)

To share the joy, I choose to wear my baju raya ;) although it was not a new one but it was still good after all this yr. believe it onot...this kurung was from my mum..haha;)
