Raya Night Thoughts

Hi,

Raya night, and I'm here, watching the little monsters (ahem, angels) finally crash out. They definitely squeezed every last drop of fun out of Raya – pelita lighting, bunga api and the fireworks. It's their once-a-year 'no bedtime' pass, and they used it wisely.




Me? Well, let's just say I was a bit of a 'Raya robot' during the final prep. Everyone was buzzing around, doing a million things at once, and I was...also doing things. But mostly, I was just kinda...blank. Like, my body was moving, but my brain was on 'loading' mode.

I'm not even sure what's going on in my head right now. It's like a weird mix of 'Raya exhaustion' and 'existential pondering' with a dash of 'where did I put my new brooch?' It's all a bit much.

But hey, even confused Raya robots deserve to wish you a Selamat Hari Raya, maaf zahir & batin! May your Raya be significantly less confusing than mine. And may we all find our brooches...eventually. 😁

Eid Mubarak, everyone! 🤝
