Hari Raya Aidilfitri is just around the corner.

Just one day away.

Have you guys and girls made your preparation?

I haven't.

Maybe tomorrow I'll start picking up things to do for this year Hari Raya.

Anyway, for the past few days I have been cleaning up my room.

Okay, not few days..a lot of days!!

Haha, almost two whole weeks.

I took everything that I ever own in my closet and put it out.

Sorted each thing that I still want to keep one by one.

And after that clean it all and put it all back into place.

It was tiring really.

But it was worth it.

I found so many childhood things that I cant even believe that I still kept all these years.

I kept it all in my personal box.

Yes, I have this box that I kept every gifts and cards that I ever received from everyone.

Before this when I got a present from someone, I would open the gift,

read the card once and put the card away.

It never really meant a lot to me.

I never thought that after I look back and read it all back.

I would have this sense of warmest feelings thrown over me.

These cards that have kind words and at the same time teasing words.

Made me realized how wonderful life actually is.

Since there are too many things in my personal box,

I cannot explained and upload all the pictures in one post. 

So I decided to make a segment.

'Throwback Time'

This segment will show every memories that  have ever received from reunion to birthday and etc.

Why I am doing this?

To be honest, when i start to read all those cards back and all my diaries back..

I cannot really recall what actually happen.

Who was the person that send me these cards?

I had no memories of it at all.

and it made me realize, I am just a human being.

When I get older, I seem to easily forget and 

I cannot remember and recall every little things that happened in my life.

So as long as I could remember, I think it is wise to take a picture of every memory

that I had and post it here in my blog with descriptions.

If not, the memories will be forgotten.

such a waste huh? 

So if you are a big part of my life and you once given me something.

even little things as a present, I will upload it here soon.

For those who never gave me a present, no worries.

I still remember your good deeds.

The effects are different.

It is hard to tell, but its there. ;)

Alright, let me get to this post right now.

As you can see on the title, it says Kad Raya!!

No, I am not talking about e-cards.

No, I am not talking about a facebook post.

I am talking about a snail mail.

The REAL KAD RAYA.

It is really sad that technology had taken such a turn that a kad raya sent by
snail mail is forgotten completely.
maybe because it is easier to send it online.
I mean there are no need to ask them for their home address.
Just one click away, done.
When not much effort involved, the meaning is less huh?

I think one day i will surprise my friend by sending these snail mail to their house.
If I dont have their home address.
Just give it by hand when I meet them.
Cool right?
Okay, that is something that I should keep my mind on the next raya.

Okay, enough chattering.
These are the kad raya that I had received through out my life.
It may not be a lot like you guys have.
But it means a lot to me.
Thank you. :)
