Last Saturday, I had a chance to host a gathering session with my friends from Sunway College. It was a last minute plan but I'm glad that everything turned out fine. I was so nervous at first and Zaid was very concerned if the food was not enough. My anxiety didn't kick off until Zaid mentioned the number of friends coming. Oh dear. Actually, I had not seen my friends for almost three years. I forgot how big our group has become.

I decided to cook Nasi Tomato, Ayam Masak Merah, Daging Rendang, and Acar. I cooked Daging Rendang a day early. For the dessert, I ordered brownies from Mamasab. I was a bit disappointed to see how hard the brownies were. The seller told me to reheat the brownies because it was put in the refrigerator overnight. I didn't listen to her and thought if I let the brownies out for an hour, it would have soften on its own but I was wrong. Nevertheless, everyone enjoyed the food alhamdulillah.

We had a great time catching up. They were hanging out up until 9.30 pm. Before we bid farewell, we took a group photo. There were supposed to be 16 of us in total, however, Durra and Daniel couldn't make it on that day. They had to be in Johor to attend a cousin's wedding.


The last time I attended a gathering with them was in 2020

I look so underdressed here haha

It was definitely a good experience to host my friends at home. Honestly, I had not been doing this since 2015 haha. So, if I'm being honest, the pressure was real. I would definitely love to host again in the near future. In fact, another group of friends from my time of studying in Brisbane are planning to do a gathering session soon inshaAllah. Anyway, that is all for now. I will update more soon.

Take care and stay safe everyone.
