Raise up your flags, Malaysians

As the clock struck 12, I hear fireworks cracking as I blissfully enjoy my last day of holiday. As unpatriotic I may be, I think it should still be etched in my mind that it has been 52 years since our country gain independence. An important day to remind me that I'm able to live in such a peaceful and beautiful country for almost 20 years. And after reading another splendid book by Khaled Hosseini, 'A Thousand Splendid Suns', I have came to realize that I'm truly lucky to be in Malaysia, a country where I can sleep on with the sounds of firecrackers instead of gunshots.


HAPPY
INDEPENDENCE DAY, MALAYSIA :)
