SAMSUNG MALAYSIA please enhance MY 2013 Raya moments

We have a BIG family. Like seriously, my dad have 10 siblings and my uncles and aunties have minimum 3 kids and some of my cousins were married and they have kids too. When Raya come to us it is like a BIG family day!  Every year, we alternate between my dad’s kampung and my mum’s kampong. I am always MOST looking forward to my dad’s kampung first because of the journey (way up to Grik,Lenggong Perak) and second because my dad’s family members is so sporting!

Every alternate years we drove approximately 352km (from kl), well of cos some of my uncles and aunties are from all over Malaysia so basically we drove all the way back to the roots. I remember when I was a small kid, my dad use to give us pop quiz in the car and the ability to answer the question ( it helps him to stay awake while driving haha) will determines our amount of duit raya. He will be asking all sorts of question like where are we now? Whats the name of the lady who sing this song? And all that, it was super fun.  Our grandparents house is very old and due to lack of maintenance we cant really stay there anymore. So, every two years my dad will book a resort called Lenggong Resort for all of us to stay. WE have so much fun at the resort!  

We love to go convoy to the masjid and perform our Solat Raya together and after that we take pictures! And yes my whole family love taking pictures. Like seriously.. you can see all the small kids and even adults automatically smile and pose when we hold the camera towards them. (no wonder I got the “perasan” gene as well)

At night, we have our tradition of family games! We divided the group based on our families and played all sort of games.  We even have mah-jong papers and marker and we also have unlces and unties who sponsor hampers to winners. Muhahaha

One of the things that we most anticipated for is the visit to LATA KEKABU. A very beautiful waterfall that we ensure we do not miss visiting. Everyone play all out and it is really  refreshing feeling when you able to get together with your family members and enjoy the fun together! N yes that’s my uncle putting on “tanduk” without my dad knowing haha

Of cause we are not all about the fun, we also do not miss our visit and give respect to our late grandparents. We dropby and we doa for them. We hope that all their sins were forgiven and it reminds us that one day, we will be there too.

I am really hoping that Samsung would be kind enough to grant me with a nice mobile phone so that I am able to capture all the fun n precious moments together during Raya. I am currently using my always-tend-to hang phone and it would mean the world if I able to have nice phone and share the moments with my family and friends!  PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
