Raya & balik kampung

Raya is around the corner, thus, everyone seems eager to go back to own hometown. We can hear many of Raya songs aired throughout the radio, calling us to go back home. Thank God I'm at my own home, so I didn't really feel the heat.

So, for this festive season I had listed some of the things to pack before we go back hometown.

1. Traveler Bags

Of course, traveler bags are needed to put all our things, no matter where you want to go. *this won't be applied if your kampung is beside your house and you can go back home anytime you like.*

The traveler bags come in various size and color. Pick the luggages that suit you and the things that you want to bring.

2. Clothes.

Clothes are the essential thing to pack. You won't like to wear the same clothes all the time,right? Don't also forget to pack tonnes of your glamorous baju raya. (Kalau tak, baik tak payah buat.Huhu) *Mine : green. Nak jugak bagitahu. Huhu*

3. Toiletries kit.

Toiletries set is important because you won't live at the hotel during this Raya, right? And I don't think your granny will provide you all the toiletries. Setakat sabun to boleh la kot. Pandai-pandai bawak la,kan? Plus, if you bring your own toiletries, it will satisfy all your needs. And hygienic too. The travelling toiletries kit is a good choice because it won't take much spaces in your bag. *Lantak la kalau hotel punya barang, asal ada. ;-) *

4. Shawl & Brooches /Pins

For the girls that wear hijab like me, don't forget pack your gorgeous shawl included with brooches and pins.

5. Handbags

Girls, don't also forget to bring your Louis Vuitton, Bonia Handbags. It is also helpful to carry your duit raya.

6. Shoes (Stiletto and others)

Pack your Jimmy Choo shoes too, guys or you will be barefooted. Unless barefooted is a new pink nowadays.

Nah, closet full of shoes.

7. Makeup set.

Girls, pack your Mac makeup set also to stay beautiful during the Raya. However, don't make up excessively during the first Raya okay.

8. Charger

Don't forget to bring all the chargers needed such a handphone charger so that you can stay connected to others. * Nanti tak ada la mengelabah cari charger* Feel free to share with other if both of you have the same model. It will save your spaces.

9. Last but not least, Kuih Raya @ Cookies

Don't forget to pack your homemade kuih raya. This is the time you can showoff at your granny that you can really cook. Huhu *Eventhough you only just taking the uncook cookies into the oven because your mother has already done most of it.* For the people who didn't have time or lazy to bake cookies *like myself.huhu* , don't worry. There are variety of ready made cookies sold in the bazar or shops. All you have to do is, to take out your money and go buy your favorite cookies. All done.

Semperit coklat. Been craving for this cookies this year.

Choc chips cookies. My all time favorite. Especially from Famous Amos. *Demand lebih ni. Huhu*

Almond London. My childhood favorite cookies. But I need to throw out the almond. I don't like putting almond in this cookies. So, it can't be called Almond London. London just enough. *wink*

Before I go and start packing my own luggage, I just wanna say Selamat Hari Raya to all Muslims in the world. To all my friends and family, Maaf Zahir Batin ek.

To all the drivers, drive safely. Remember that your love ones are waiting for your at your destination.
