    "I'm a new soul I came to this strange world hoping I could learn a bit about how to give and take.
    But since I came here felt the joy and the fear finding myself making every possible mistake."
    - "New Soul" by Yael Naim
    My niece would be celebrating her 44th day anniversary tomorrow. And according to Malay/Muslim tradition, she would have her first and only 'cukur rambut' ceremony.

    The cukur rambut ('cut hair' in Malay) ceremony* includes prayers, a feast and of course as the name suggests, the 'highlight' of the ceremony is to cut a lil bit of her hair. The weight of her cut strands of hair (per gram) would then be multiplied by the cost of gold per gram. And the money would then be donated to charity.

    "Oh man, I feel old..."

    *I'm not quite sure how the entire ceremony really goes, been to only a couple when I was younger.
