COMMON QUESTIONS DURING EID
1. Tak keluar hari ni? / Not going out today?
(usually asked when you are serving drinks)
Duh...you are here @ my place and it's already 10pm!
2. Bila aku dapat rasa nasi minyak kau? / When can I taste your Nasi Minyak?
(trying to beat around the bush, asking 'when are you getting married')
Usual answer: Every Friday, pls come to my mum's stall cos she cooks Nasi Briani/Minyak.
3. Nani drive ke? / Did you drive here?
Guilty...I'm too lazy. I hate finding parking lots during Eid.
When I admit, they will comment 'then why have a licence in the 1st place?'
4. Dah sekolah ke kerja? / Are you still schooling or already working?
Indirectly helping them to decide whether to give you green packets or not
5. Banyak buat kuih tahun ni? / Did you bake lots of cookies this year?
Errrr...you can see for yourself, all laid on the table :p
6. Wah...beli kerepek ni kat mana? / Wow...where did you buy all these snacks?
My parents' favourite place of course, Tanjung Pinang
Eid Mubarak to all my Muslim friends!
