Family gatherings can sometimes test the limits of our endurance. There’s the constant barrage of deeply personal questions from family such as: “When are you getting married?”, “Where’s your bf/gf?”, or even “How much is your company paying you now?“.

But at the end, family is still family, and love or hate them, we can’t help but relate to these following family interactions, brought to life in Watsons’ Raya video.

1) Greeting A Relative Cooking In The Kitchen—And Getting Chased Out

Picture this: the main chef is cooking in the kitchen and we go to greet them, only to be chased out of the kitchen as we’re in the way.

2) Sitting In Awkward Silence

Some relatives, we only meet once a year. Cue the awkward silence and cricket sounds in the living room, until someone breaks the ice.

All around me are familiar faces, worn out places, worn out faces

3) Judging & Rating Our Relatives’ Outfits

As someone who never really dresses for the occasion, I often get the brunt of my family’s judging looks. To keep things fair, I also do my own share of internal judging.

Judgy looks all around

4) Having Embarrassing Past Stories Dug Up Again & Again

Most relatives are experts at pulling out those old stories from days past, complete with each embarrassing detail I still try to forget on sleepless nights.

5) Acting Too Cool For The Family Home

There’s always one person who’s trying to rebrand and refresh their image. We’re not ashamed to admit we’ve tried it too. At least Loca B legit looks cool here.

Not everyone can pull this off, not me for sure

6) Calling Everyone To Eat Way Too Many Times

Though we love our food, sometimes we get too caught up in the catching up, leaving the poor cook from scenario one to demand that everyone gets up to go and eat the meal they painstakingly worked on.

7) Having A Family Pet As The Favourite Child

Not as awkward as the rest because we’re also guilty of the same behaviour. This was just an excuse for us to put another gif of the adorable cat.
