Festive rush...

As everyone knows, Eid is coming very soon, and whenever Eid approaches, people start preparing for it. Of course, it is a very happy occasion, and everyone likes to make some kind of preparation for it. It is a special time when markets become crowded, houses get decorated, and everyone seems excited. Although sometimes the day of Eid itself can feel a little boring after all the excitement of preparation, the happiness of the season still makes everything feels special..
But when it comes to shopping, I am completely different from most people. I hardly ever go to the market for shopping because it feels very difficult for me. Whenever I go to the bazaar, I honestly don’t know what to do or how to choose things. Because of this, most of my shopping is done by my parents. My dresses are usually made by my father, and this year they were already prepared before Eid shopping even started.

However, my mother and my aunt always try to take me to the market so that I can learn how to shop properly and develop some sense of choosing things for myself. Personally, I actually enjoy online shopping a lot and I can easily choose things there, but going to a crowded market feels very overwhelming to me.
This time my mother and aunt finally convinced me to go with them to the bazaar. We only needed to buy a few things like jewelry and shoes because my clothes were already ready. The interesting part is that I don’t really wear much jewelry. I prefer very minimal jewelry, while my mother loves jewelry a lot. She often buys it for me even when I tell her not to, and in the end I rarely wear it.
These days in Pakistan "کشمیری چوڑیاں " Kashmiri bangles becoming very popular and almost every other girl is wearing them.

I actually love bangles a lot, but strangely I still don’t wear them very often. Every Eid my bangles are bought, but I might wear them only once. This time my mother also wanted to buy bangles for me, but I decided to choose them myself. The funny thing is that I didn’t buy the viral designs that everyone is wearing. I chose something different according to my own taste. Now that I have bought them, I will try my best to actually wear them this Eid.
During the days before Eid, the markets become extremely crowded, especially the bangle shops, because girls love buying bangles. Even though the rush can be tiring, the atmosphere of the bazaar feels very lively and beautiful. Everywhere you look, people are busy with Eid preparations, choosing clothes, buying shoes, and selecting jewelry. Seeing everyone excited for Eid makes the whole environment feel joyful and festive.
Even though shopping is not really my thing, moments like these still make Eid preparations feel memorable.
