Selamat Gawai

....Gayu Guru Gerai Nyamai Nguan/Ngibun Menua...Berkat Allah Taala Enggau Kitai Belama Lama Iya....
I hope I am not too early in wishing all readers be they Ibans or Bidayuhs celebrating the Harvest Festival or non of the two, all the same....May all of us be bountifully blessed in everything that we do.
Soon everybody,well almost everybody will be making his/her way home to his/her respective longhouse to celebrate Gawai with loved ones. Some are already declaring their own school holidays by taking off earlier than the actual school holidays. Some friends are not even thinking of Gawai at all. They are thinking of getting the airtickets,booking hotels,planning this & that & getting things done as they should be as they prepare their children to continue their studies in the various higher institutes of learning. Dear Lord,please provide for the needs of those parents...you know their minds,their thoughts & their worries,in Jesus' name we pray & ask. Amen.
After being indecisive (because of H1N1 virus ) for the past 3 weeks whether we were to go ahead with our Euro trip,my 5 friends & I +18 others from KL itself, if the Lord is willing,shall be leaving for our long awaited trip to Europe. We'll be leaving on 30th May for KL & Bangkok. At the stroke of midnight (31st May) we'll be leaving for Rome by Thai Airways.The tour of Europe would take about 12 nights & 5 nights extra in London. Ya,almost 2 weeks +.Actually we wanted to postpone our trip but we were told we had to pay penalty which was half of the tour price. What to do..pergi saja lah..went for a flu jab & leave everything to God for protection.
Anyway,itulah cerita nya.
Til then...good night. My mind is blank..wish I had more things to write about which I have but not for public consumption.
