Eid Party

Eid Sa'eed!
Eid Mubarak!

This was my first Eid away from home! I had an odd feeling - no one from the family to meet up with, nobody to go to after the prayer. Anyhow it wasn't without some relief, which is that I didn't have to run around the city distributing meat to all my extended family members.
I had this dissertation proposal to submit on the next day of the Eid. Really, I wasn't feeling like writing anything on that day but I had to. It accounted 60% of one of my module's marks! So I had to sit it through till the end after the Eid prayer.
But, yes I did celebrate the Eid here, after the submission. Yesterday, me and my friends prepared Biryani and Sheer Khorma. I just love it! Friends came over and they liked it! :) I hope they really did, because frankly, I was not satisfied with the taste of Biryani. Anyway, it was my very first attempt to make it and it was not bad!
InshaAllah, I'm gonna try that again some day! All in all it was good day and we all had fun! :)

Finally I'm feeling a bit more okay here now!
