sheryl1188's picture

Hello lovely people,

Raya is coming soon. I bet some of us has already bought some stuff for your own and families as well. So mind sharing what did u buy so far?

As for me... err.. errr... let's see.... hmm...

1. 2 pieces of kebaya (again! as I'm a kebaya freak I guess so!)
2. 1 baju kurung
3. Baju kurung for my mom
4. Clothes for my siblings
5. Some nice things for mommy from The CC and a pendant for myself too!

Did I leave anything else? Huh-huh...

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

Wah raya sakan Sheryl...

I still have not finished shopping baju raya for my nieces and nephews-something that we do every year. Was at Metro yesterday but didn't buy anything because they said that the sale will start middle of the month.

Okaylah tu..cover 1st to 3rd raya. I masa kecik-kecik dulu demand baju tidur raya and seluar dalam raya....hehehehe

Yes, Metro mesti sale punya. For card members, the sale has started.

Besides Metro, my sis said masjid india's version of Tom Abang Saufi's fashion dah berlambak kat situ.

I knew it you'll be laughing re. my name. Sempatlah jugak rasa ayu with that name for half a day. Sebenarnya, I pun gelak gak when Sheryl refer to me as Lina.

Sheryl,

CK,

thanx for buying and promoting them cookies :) yang i pulak beli cookies from another person coz nak tolong orang lain jugak, hehehe.

anyways, what have i bought for raya this year? basically nothing yet.. coz memang tak sempat nak ambik cuti to go shop for the kids clothes but Harith's baju melayu dah ada because ada nasyid kat sekolah ugama and the school asked us to make new baju melayu of blue colour so dah siap la. as for other kids, Tihani will wear last year's baju kurung as it's still new, Mirza will wear last year's baju melayu and Kamilia will not wear any baju kurung coz she's still too small to wear one. don't want her to feel rimas in it actually. as for us the parents, myself dah tempah 2 pasang baju just because i don't want my mom to blabber on me not having a new baju but hubby will wear some baju melayu frm previous years.. so belum tau colour apa lagi :) apart from those baju melayu and baju kurung, clothes for the kids yang my MIL bagi dah ada sorang satu :D

also, tahun ni langsir tak yah tukar baru coz gune langsir previous year's, hehehe. kuih raya dah ada.. cuma nak fikir nak masak apa for first day raya as my parents will be coming back from their umrah trip on first day raya. ada harapan we all beraya in KLIA, hehehe

Rose,
Bestnnnye boleh guna last year's baju raya. I can't do that to my son because it's either he grows out of it or the pants (part lutut) dah koyak sebab jatuh.

Sheryl,
Why malu? You don't know what. If you meet me face-to-face, I think you pun tak nak panggil I Lina...

CK,
I have a friend who calls me Lynn....lagi ayu hehehehe

Hazlina,

my kids memang best coz baju either can hands down or boleh pakai at least 2 tahun, hehehe. Not that they didn't grow tapi entah la tak tau kenapa. recently i put aside baju yang dah tak leh pakai.. boleh tahan jugak banyaknya. Ialah, "gerabak" i kan panjang :)

anyways, sidetrack sikit, ada ke tempat yang i boleh hantar those bajus eh? kalau tak de, i think i nak kena buang jugak la nampak gaya. sayang actually coz ada yang still OK tapi memang my kids dah tak leh pakai. if ada yang tahu ke mana boleh disalurkan, pls let me know eh..

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

Alamak with all the discussions here, it makes me rather panicky la. I satu haram pun belom beli for myself. For the hubby and for the son dah ok lah tapi for me belom ada time yet. Lg pun tak boleh nak melaram lebeh2 this yr, sebab itu perut sudah mcm tong drum.

Rose dear,

Just got this email. Perhaps you wanna sedekahkan the clothes as per below?

ASSALAMMUALAIKUM WRM. WBT.

Ketika ini, masyarakat ISLAM di Selatan Thailand , Pattani menghadapi serangan besar-besaran daripada tentera-tentera kafir Thailand. Pemimpin tertinggi mereka mahukan masyarakat ISLAM dibunuh setiap hari terutama golongan lelaki dewasa. Inilah agenda golongan kafir untuk memusnahkan komuniti dan institusi masyarakat ISLAM yang telah lama bertapak sejak dulu lagi.

Ketika ini, ramai sungguh anak-anak yang kehilangan bapa, isteri-isteri yang kehilangan suami angkara perbuatan terkutuk golongan kafir ini. Ramai yang menjadi yatim piatu , tiada tempat pergantungan.

Oleh itu, kami mewakili Surau 338 dengan kerjasama Ustaz Malik Salleh daripada JAWI, memohon kerjasama dan bantuan yang termampu daripada muslimin dan muslimat untuk mendermakan PAKAIAN-PAKAIAN TERPAKAI yang boleh di pakai oleh anak-anak yatim ini. Bantuan ini boleh diserahkan kepada TAMJID (Tingkat 12, 338) sebelum 25 Oktober 2005. Hasil Kutipan akan diserahkan terus kepada wakil daripada Pattani dengan bantuan Ustaz Malik Salleh dari JAWI pada 25 Oktober 2005.

Selamat menderma dan bantulah saudara ISLAM kita di luar sana. Selamatkan bumi Malaysia, Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Pattani.

Thanx for fowarding the mail here :)

Good question Rose. I pun ada gak yang tak bagi-bagi lagi orang. We had a project with rumah-rumah anak yatim and when I spoke to them memanglah dah tak heran with baju dah pakai. They prefer new ones...

Sometimes it's better to give them away bila you balik kampung (if you still have one lah) Depa lagi appreciate.

But last Sunday, I tengok Nona about a grandma who is taking care of her 3 grandchildren, kesian pulak. Imagine that she goes to market to kutip ikan-ikan yang tercicir on the floor and vege yang orang dah buang just to feed the kids...Tapi they just give account number with no address.

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

Hazlina,

some of rumah anak yatim around KL and Selangor memang mewah coz ramai yang datang bagi derma. ada jugak yang kurang mampu tapi payah sikit nak cari. tapi, bila dah jumpa satu yang kurang mampu, lpeas tu ramai yang datang bagi bantuan. i'm not complaining whatsoever tapi kalau semua rumah anak yatim yang kurang mampu dapat dibantu sama rata, that will be better :)

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

haven't bought anything for myself, and don't plan to. i think it's been at least two years since i got myself baju raya (ni excluding the black baju melayu i had to get for ccd la, which was a necessity). kalau beli pun, jarang pakai. so, no need to buy la.

i have three plastic bags (beg plastik sampah hitam tu, because takde beg plastik lain yang cukup besar) full of baju to be given away, and i think my mom will be passing it one of her mualaf friends to be given away to the appropriate parties.

We had a launch with one ministry and everybody diarah pakai batik to respect the order. Kelam kabut semua cari. My boss ended up sangkut scarf batik kat bahu sebab susah nak cari size. :wink:

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

Hi,

Following some of the discussions - I sometimes collect the bajus, foodstuff etc and hand them over to this charity house kat Kuala Selangor, Rumah Hashimiah. It houses anak yatim, budak2 kurang upaya, orang2 tua pun ada. Basically, it's a charity home - sapa2 pun ada masuk. Orang2 famous nya abang/anak pun ada. But sad thing about it is that it is not funded by the government; it's run by ehsan orang2 lah.

They've been getting some publicity these past few years. While this is good, sebab they've managed to get some corporate sponsors to do up their place (now ada attap zink kat tempat makan, dulu tutup canvas je), tapi these also means more people are aware of the Homes and as such, they've been receiving more people than ever. And like I said, they run on charity from people so kadang2 tu sepit jugak. Like Kak Ana (who runs the home with her husband) said, kadang2 kalau takde duit tu, makan sardin and sayur je lah. The first time I went there I rasa sedih sangat - because the home tu macam run-down sikit (it's just an old "balai raya" and the separate sleeping quarters for boys & girls - and they have no beds, tidur atas tilam on the floor je, TV/lepak area kat luor bawah bumbung zink).

Last time I went they have about erm 200 plus people kot? I'd like to paste some pictures of them here but I don't know how to eheheh *ketawa malu*.

Anyway, Rose and Hazlina (kan?) this is just a long-winded way to say that if you have extra bajus, I'll be glad to take it from you and then I can hand over to them whenever I go there next.

Or perhaps this Forum can make a trip sana as a group activity? :D

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

Leen, I can help you post the photos :) Just email to me, ok?

Your boss is very creative! Hmm... baju batik is really an issue for some as the handwritten batik is considered expensive.

Not in Kelantan though. Particularly if one buys in bulk in one of those factories. As for me, I have quite a number of baju batik as my mum loves batik malaysia. Sure I do love 'em too, but when it comes to ironing..... phew! :P

Leen, I think we can think of something. Since we are doing the Perjumpaan Raya thingy, why not some or part of the fund we collected for the makan2 thing we salur kan some to the Rumah Hashimah Insya ALLAH. Jadi boleh lah sama rata semua dapat Pahala nya kan??

Maybe we can work something out regards to this kan Leen...

I will disucss with Nurul & Rose & sapa2 yg interested with this idea...

Pakcik, you must learn a no.1 rule. Never question a woman about their shoes or handbags collections. They have that permanent virus in them called "imelda m virus" symptom. Unlike the "diamond virus" which comes once in a VERY VERY BLUE moon you see.

So, if you have a gf or wife, be prepared during PMS season, the "imelda m virus" sometimes "resurface" without warning. The signs are there if you notice. Mall hopping - ATM machine visits - Itchy hands and the next thing you know, she has couple of shoes or handbags in her hands. :lol: :P

sheryl,

hmmm...

Pakcik, you must learn a no.1 rule. Never question a woman about their shoes or handbags collections. They have that permanent virus in them called "imelda m virus" symptom. Unlike the "diamond virus" which comes once in a VERY VERY BLUE moon you see.

So, if you have a gf or wife, be prepared during PMS season, the "imelda m virus" sometimes "resurface" without warning. The signs are there if you notice. Mall hopping - ATM machine visits - Itchy hands and the next thing you know, she has couple of shoes or handbags in her hands. :lol: :P

Re:What Did U Buy For Upcoming Raya?

just for teh records coz dah lama sangat tak participate in this forum kan :)

for the last raya, i managed to buy a pair of baju for my 4 kids coz ada one time tu i kena pegi training kat Centrepoint Bandar Utama so dah terlanjur dekat dengan One Utama, pegi la Jusco. ada la pusing 2 jam kat situ coz tak banyak choice. Orang kat dalam Jusco tu pun kurang sangat coz memang baju tak cantik pun :( also, malam raya i bought new shoes for Mirza and Kamilia coz kasut depa dah uzur and in Kamilia's case, kasut dia semua kakak or abang punya, hehehe. But Mirza yang lagi suka pakai selipar tu, will carry around his new shoes while he still wears the old Spiderman slippers :? evntho ada rasa nak geram when he just carry the shoes around, tapi he's so cute when he does that :)
