This is the moment of a lifetime to make a wish and blowing up the candles!

I got the opportunity to participated in one of mum's colleague birthday batch that I acquire to accumulate...
A social event not to be miss to honour their favored prince's anniversary of life...
I like to think and wonder what it feel like being a king for just one day once a year
and surrounded by loving peoples singing you a well-wishing song!

Bring along with my good girl cousin!

Kid burgers, hotdogs and french fries stimulated us as the appetizers whilst get connected to the crowds

and guests expecting for fun amusements in the next hour...

The party will be incomplete without the main event or a suprise package waiting to deliver...

For the main show it's kind of chubby mammal wearing a special apparel recognized as merry entertainment...

or it's a man in disguise working as performer bringing you excessive joys and a bear hug!

My bro doesn't want any closed-call with untamed bear!

Now... As I said this is a special kind of bear stand out as a mascot for widely known brand...
It had been stood in Malaysia for almost half a century and still going strong and proud...

But something amiss me by it's oddly appearances and exotic behaviour of it silent mode...
Hmmm... Something is beary fishy and strange here...
It can dances and acted stooges while entertaining most of us in quiet and gentle manners...
I tried to observes more... Here it's some of the peculiar footages that I've captured...

Some of the participants getting charms by it persona... 

One thing for sure, It's definitely a ladykiller!

It's getting strange and strange-r... playing the raya song altho the festival has been bypast months

A journey to the past memories with salams and doas for the deceased final resting place...

Visiting the cemetery is a good reason to believes the values of life...

Balik Kampung ritual... No matter where we live, how high, or how far we've travel, we're bound

to return back to our root... The place where we've grown, solemn and bred until we've grown

and independent of our own leaving our folk back  at hometown... This is the essentially rational 

reunification by bringing our own family and shown our success of living abroad to our kinsfolk...

Why must you stay in the city staring at the concrete jungle? Go home as your parent's waiting for you...

Road Blocks... 

and traffic jams...

Attitudes and awkward driving were the common matter we should wary for...

Thanks to the forces we're taken care and advises of our cautious whilst on the road...
