Raya SMS Part Deux
Now that Hari Raya frenzy is starting to slow down, and what I meant by that is all the SMS-es that people usually send just a few minutes before midnite before Hari Raya. A bit odd though that this year, I received very little sms compared to last year. Prolly because I didn't reply to many of those who sent me Raya SMS last year but I have also noticed an influx of Hari Raya e-card surfacing again. Those sent to Friendster or e-mails which have flashplayer graphics and music. Imagine several years ago, when you received Hari Raya cards, it was just a piece of card with some writings. Nowdays you get moving graphics, animated cartoons with Hari Raya songs.
This year, I did not receive many creative Hari Raya SMS-es. Many chose to write mundane things like Selamat Hari Raya dari Abu dan keluarga kinda stuff. There are a few worthed mentioning and here it is in random order.
- BeTiK iS PaPaYa, RoCk Is BaTu, SkRg Da RaYe, SoRy ByK2 ye u...tHiS iS kUlIt KeRaNg, FiSh ThE iKaN pUyU, i CkP TrUs TrAnG, i Nk DuIt RaYa dr U...! Hehe - Linda GTi (very very original. Haven't read anything like this coz it sorta rhymes but it doesn't)
- Selamat Hari Raya, enjoy ureself tanpa gangguan dari canna - Mike Tay (straight to the point and I can't appreciate more)
- Di pagi syawal yang mulia ini, kususun jari tanda kemaafan.."selamat hari raya dan maaf zahir batin" - Nazreen (okaylah, very slightly better than the standard Hari Raya SMS. actually shouldn't even be in here but heck..just to fill the empty spaces)
- KATAK PISANG KATAK PURU, sembang bwh pokok kasturi, Jgn PErasAN ATau tERharu, Bukan nak UcAP Kata RinDU, cUMa nak uCap "Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri". - Wan & Siti (starts off really well and thought the ending would be better but...well Selamat Hari Raya to you too)
- For things I did wrong, For words which might hurt, For jokes you can't take, For advise you can't accept & For all e madness + lame jokes + sarcasm, 1001 apologies..hope you have a gr8 hari raya!SALAM AIDILFITRI MAAF ZAHIR BATIN - Jihan (awwww...)
- Pelita dpasang pnarik seri, ramadhan dignti c aidilfitri, msej pndek pganti diri, tnda erti sntiasa d ingati. Salam aidilfitri. Maaf zahir batin - Azlin (this one surely lazy to type the full word, either that or the handphone can only text 40 words max)
Okay those are some the Hari Raya SMS which are worthy of being mentioned. The standard ones well, are just standard. The best Hari Raya SMS for 2007 goes to...
No fancy poems and no funky pics, but just a simple 'Selamat Hari Raya' from me, the one and only Maharedza. (very original, direct and so him. appreciate the SMS bro)
And to all those who have SMS-ed me and I never reply...thank you. All your SMS-es are treasured and thank you for making Maxis, Celcom, Digi richer by the day so that they give us better call and SMS packages. Hopefully next year MMS with video will be FOC so we can send Video MMS-es with Raya Greetings. Cool idea huh? Hope you had a pleasant read and Selamat Hari Raya to all!

so funny
