Hari Raya Celebration . . . Reflections
This year, hmmm I don't think I did a 100% preparation for Hari Raya. Just the normal necessary things (e.g getting a few pairs of Baju Kurung, giving my room a make over, green packets for the kids, etc...).
The best part of the celebration was "The Family Gathering"...I get to meet up and hang out with my cousins...had fun with my nieces and nephews...My fellow colleagues from West Grove Primary School came over to my house too...It was really fun hahaha...I am honoured to have them as my guests. To all teachers, " We should hang out more hahaha you guys are fun!".
My students did not came over to my place this year. Well maybe becuz its during their PSLE and everyone was busy with exams preparations. A few of them did call and ask if I am at home but sorry guys hahaha wrong timing...I was out. There's always next year ok LOL if my P6 students still remember me after going to sec school hahaha.
my name Helmindra Kamal but people call me Helmi...
my whereabout All I can say is, I am staying in Jurong East...in a country called Singapore...
my contact You can just email me at helmi.indra@hotmail.com...
my job I am an IT Teacher in a primary school in the West area...
my activities when i am free Soccer, Reading, Music (listening & playing it), Singing, Fishing, Shopping, Hangin out...
my hangout places Hmmm...let me see...well usually patronise the cafes (Starbucks, Coffee Beans, Gloria Jeans, etc...).
Occasionally, I do hangout at Johor till early morning...and for a great meal, SPIZE The Makan Place is 1st choice...lol.
bands / singers I listen to all kinds of music from all kinds of languages. As long its nice to my ears, its fine with me.
But I have a few favourites of my own. I really love Coldplay. Their latest song "Viva La Vida" was great. Me and my brothers do jam their songs once in a while. "Jie Kou", a classic by Jay Chou from his old album is my fav chinese song. From our local band Electrico, their song "Shadow" was superb.
past time
I love playing music. I play guitar (acoustic, electric & bass guitars) and I have all of them at home...lol just a small collection. I play a bit of piano, just songs that I liked. I learn on my own, never went for any courses. Well, I am planning to go for piano and violin courses in the future hahaha. Wish me luck...!
food & beverages Anything that is HALAL...meaning no pork and MUIS certified. Some favourites that I have are Italian & Western food.
As for snacks, a chocolate milk tea with pearl & a butter waffle at Gek Poh complete my tea break LOL.
vacation destination If I am given a choice, I would love to visit India again. I was sent there during my Army Days for training.
The place was really cool...nice weather, nice people, nice history and beautiful places...Incredible India.
