Eid Mubarak!!
Assalamualaikum wrh. wbt.
I'm currently all decked out in my raya clothes on a
Monday (yes, ICV announced that
today is Raya, although I've heard that there are discrepancies throughout Australia, usually based on which mosque you attend), and sitting before one of the PCs in the IT lab, dowloading podcasts by
Dato' Harun Din (thank you,
il-bloop!)waiting for my Chem class, to which I will be early for the first time in a fortnight.
Talk about another momentous first.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone I know a hearty
Selamat Hari raya 'Aidilfitri, or as my
Indonesian friends would say it:
"Selamat 'aidil wal fa izin."Remember, the word
'eid' is more important than are 'hari raya', because they mean
'triumph', and 'raya' means....
... 'celebration'. I think.
Someone get me a
Kamus Hall please.
Anyway, I want to minta maaf zahir dan batin; apologize and hope for forgiveness from everyone I have wronged in the slightest way, whether it is on purpose, or by mistake -- and those that are apparent, and the not-so-apparent kinds.

Have a wonderful Syawal. Say a mighty takbir. Because the takbir is meant for the triumphant and the victorious, and not for those who are meek and ignorant by choice.
Taqabbal Allahu minna wa minkum.Wassalamualaikum wrh. wbt.
P.S:- 'Saya ingin mengambil kesempatan ini untuk mengucapkan Eid Mubarak kepada keluarga yang dikasihi nun jauh di sana, serta para sahabatku seantero Australasia dan New Zealand. Tidak lupa juga semua yang mengenali diri ini di LITW. Biar jauh di mata, jangan jauh di hati, sudah.
Kalau nak kirim duit/biskut raya, you know where to find me. ;)'
