now now.. calm down.. i know you're all eager to hear the most fantastically funny joke.. be patient.. all in due time.. first, i shall tell the great weekend i had! again, my mission was food! open houses were the main attraction this time.. mmm... food, glorious food.. this was the first raya i celebrated in 2 years! so, nothing was going to stop me from going.. be it hail or storm, nothing will get in my way.. not even my exams, which i was going to sit on the very monday.. ':p
on the very night i arrived, the heavens opened up to me.. there was an open house already that evening! i changed and was eager to go out the door towards the smell of good ol' hari raya food. i couldn't stop smiling.. i soaked in the wonderful atmosphere.. colourful traditonal clothes.. well lit beautiful homes.. food that could feed the whole africa.. people talking to eachother having a pleasent time.. hari raya, there's nothing like it.. how i missed it so..
after stomachs were full and very satisfied, we went back and rested both mind and tummy. regaining energy was very important for the following day was to be a really long day.. since the night before, i didn't eat a thing.. i calmed my growling tummy.. "be patient.. you won't be empty for too long.." i reassured.. 3 houses were to be visited that day.. food, glorious food..
slowly and in tiny portion.. that is the golden rule in 'all-you-can-eat buffet'. same rules applies with open houses. slowly and in tiny portions were my strategy all throughout the endless eating bonanza. i had almost everything that were on the table (excluding cutlery and the host's flower decorations), i had a try at everything! mmmm...
half way through the third house, my stomach had enough and called it quits.. ofcourse, after a full stomach, the eyelids stops funtioning.. man, was i sleepy.. and the 6-hours of walking around had a factor in it as well.. after when we called it a night or rayaing, we went back.. but the night was far from over.. iffah, amy, nadiah, fez and i went out for a movie. saw 3 was playing. amy was very eager to watch it.. too eager.. hehe.. it was a good movie.. very gory.. but a very good story and twists to the plot was well done.. amy emphasized it often.. we started to get worried about her.. i could just imagine her being jigsaw and torturing people but with a sweet smile..haha! after the movie, i finally went to bed, i couldn't help but smile.. it was a wonderful day.. ':)
i planned to go to keele and visit my sister for their open house but couldn't make it.. too expensive to get there just for the day.. sorry sis.. i promise to see you next time..
okay! on to the joke! it's copyrighted by amy amalina (since i have a lot of amys that i know, i shall refer to you as that.. hehe). the joke is soooo good, i had to hear it, i don't a dozen time in 2 days! ok.. here goes..
what is the difference between a mosquito and a fly?
give up?
a mosquito can fly but a fly can't mosquito!
uuggghhh... i know... i got 2 groans and a 3 rolled eyes after i told that joke to people.. sigh.. haha!
on a completely unrelated matter to today's post, i just wanna say, i'm relieved and very very happy.. details are undisclosed until further notice.. hehe.. ':)
i'm out.. thanks for a great weekend guys! i'll see you real soon!
