Party by the Pool

Before you get too excited, it was (yeap, the party was held last Friday!) not a typical party that u've saw on TV or in the movies. It supposed to be a thanksgiving party, well not the typical American thanksgiving party, but a simple majlis kesyukuran which happened to be held at the swimming pool area of my place. And no dress code or specific theme for the said party.

The event was co-organised by Azzril, Ajoi and myself and each one of us was allocated with 15 guests each. Taken into consideration that this makan-makan was to be held after office hour on week day, I've shortlisted 15 of my close friends who I think could make it to the party. Alhamdulillah, all my invited guests had turned up at the party while Azzril was short of three guests and Ajoi's two.

Although it was raining a bit at the begining of the party, alhamdulillah it did not stop the invitees to come and get together with friends. And thank God, the majlis went smoothly and without any mishaps (not that we've anticipated any!).

And I took the opportunity to throw a surprise birthday celebration for Konda and Azzril. Walaupun Hafez agak kurang setuju pada permulaannya, tapi aku rasa alang-alang kawan-kawan rapat Azzril ada pada masa itu, baik kita ambil kesempatan yang ada. I'm so sorry Hafez if that has disrupted any of your in-coming plans.

Ramai yang tanya tentang objektif parti ini. Aku pun tak tahu macam mana nak jawap. Apa-apa pun, cuba tanyakan Azzril ataupun Ajoi. Dah nama pun thanksgiving, pastinya untuk mensyukuri rezeki yang ada.

As always, I've learned a valuable lesson from this event. It seems that some of my friends (althought they were not specifically in my list of invitees per se), have the habit of do not bother to confirm their attendance. Or that concept is too alien for them? Bukan apa, kalau mereka mengesahkan ketidakhadiran terlebih awal, sekurang-kurangnya pihak penganjur boleh memajukan jemputan kepada orang lain.

Bak kata Izal, lain padang lainlah belalang.

Anyhow, on behalf of Azzril, Ajoi and myself, thank you very much for coming, friends. We really appreciate it. Terima kasih daun keladi kepada yang membantu, terutamanya Ajim dan Ade.

Jangan serik semua. Kalau ada umur yang panjang, boleh kita bermajlis kesyukuran lagi!

Welcoming Party

I just returned from the Richmond Park Bar, attended the Welcome Party specially held for the Ladybarn & Linton residents. It's almost 12am and I've yet to perform my Isya prayer and it's far over my bed time. Sorry guys... only pictures for today's posting. Good nite and sweet dreams.

PINK Garlic, Rusholme

It was quite cold (to my standard at least) yesterday. It rained again in the afternoon and got very breezy in the afternoon, slightly before I went out from my flat to go to Rusholme to attend a dinner organised by the Islamic Society.

I saw quite a number of Malaysians there but there was this friendly brother named Zahiran, of course from Malaysia, greeted me with his big smile on his face and asked me whether I was a first year student!

Well, he's not the only to have that idea of me as an undergraduate student (and first year student!) because a couple of Pakistani students also asked the same thing. I guess it may be because of my small frame and youthful look (hehehe).

The dinner finished around 9.00 pm and before I went home, I decided to visit Fendy since I already in his neighbourhood. He said he was doing nothing but listening to music and surfing the Net. He offered me some of his Raya cookies brought from home. My God... banyaknya! I politely declined his generousity since I don't like modern cookies, yeah like Almond London, etc. Anyhow, syukran brother. Syukran.
