Hari Raya holiday

Today is Saturday, eve of Hari Raya Puasa. I get 4days off for Hari Raya which is the weekend plus Mon and Tue.

It was a pretty wet holiday here in Penang. Yesterday night's rain was a heavy one that comes together with strong wind. Even now at 3pm in the evening, there was not much sunlight, but greyish sky.

I decided not to travel back hometown this holiday. You can expect more update in this blog for the coming few days. I've got a couple of reasons behind this decision but deep deep inside, I feel that there is only one main reason. The rest are just excuses made up to further strengthen the main one :P

I'm sitting here on the bed, typing this while waiting to feel sleepy (not that i need to be sleepy in order to fall asleep). It should be a nice cool day to sleep in. I seldom take afternoon nap, because when I do, no alarm clock will be able to wake me up until I'm done with 3hrs sleep (at least!).

Before I end the post, I have one good news to announce:

"I finally learned how to tie my shoelace correctly!!"

It's embarrassing to admit that it took me so long to learn such simple thing, but I'm happy I finally did. I just found out that it does makes a different whether you make the loop with your right hand or left or whether it is right on top of left or the other way round.

I do tie my own shoelaces since I do away from those strap-type of shoes, but the way I did it all these while was not correct. Which explains why my shoelace always comes off easily. Back in my secondary schooling years, my hiker friend actually help me to tie my shoelace when we go hiking together because he cannot tahan that I had to constantly slow down to tie the loosen shoelace. At one point, he just said "come lar come lar, I tie for you :P"
