it was the start of something new..a whole new group working together,never meet up before,bt yet,all were moving as one,singing as one,making jokes while working,to keep the spirit up..or as they all say it..keep the momentum up..together as one they were..from a rowdy bunch,to an organize team..a united team,who say ppl cant change in one day..we did..we did something that no one expected us to be

we got a day off from work,well sort of,went down to the place...bt the workers wasnt there..soo den we off wen back to camp..den visited misty mountains..the tea plantations..it was a treat goiing up seeing our first mountain view..the view was splendid..

i know..amazing right,to be soo close to the clouds

sitting down there..it was one day before hari raya..my family called me up..i was in tears to hear that all at home were missing me,as i type this,i still recall,sitting down at the steps,wen my mum call,she was the first to talk to me..den it dawn on me..everyone at home misses me,n so did i..every year witout fail,the night of hari raya would be a special one,sit down wif the family for dinner,bt i couldnt be there,for once,frens n all that were put aside,n it dawn on me..is this gonna be like if im gone from the family,if i would have start a new family..it taught me that..even no matter how far u are from home,the one thats always closest to u are u family,they are always in ur heart..the guys were concern,bt then again,no one would know wat it feel like to be away celebrating hari raya away till uve experience urself,the view there manage to calm me down..

as the night came,sitting down outside,viewing the starts..wif the mist dat has come were gone..it was again n a beautiful sight to behold..forever wishing that night,will always come again..the night prayers,or takbir as it is called,were held at night,wif all the malays dudes n mats n the malay teacher,mr hussein,he shed in tears..soo did a few..i was holding back mine..nt sure bout mimi..everyone sees life different,have a different life,bt dat nite,the takbir raya was like music in my ears..softly touching my heart..bringing back all those memories of home.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA..

it was the first day of raya,we went for the sembahyang raya at the mosque there..it wasnt grant..it was very very very very simple..again was the takbir..it was like a universal language for us den..everyone was juz rehearse over n over again the verse..that one verse.was strong enough to bring back sanity to everyone there,to be human once again..the ustaz or imam there,was delighted n overjoy to be seeing other muslim of the the world..which he mention in his tamil or malayaram spoken language,mentioning bout us..we were gratefull for their hospitality..

den we went back,where some use the phone,to call family at the local booth,i waited for awhile,waiting for the time to call home,i did cal finally,went out of the bus,n walk abit down the road,n gave em a call,my mum pick up the phone,after uttering a few words,again she was in tears..writing all this down aint easy..thats the beauty of a love.. finish up the call,den headed back to the bus..mimi manage to call his younger brother whom he misses alot..wen up back the to the hostel..where everyone was abit solem,the malays that is...
