#174 - Preparing for the Rainy Days
Life during Ramadan is fast-paced in the morning and super laid back in the evening. Since my work schedule was shortened to six hours (without break), I must move my butt in order to conquer the day. Actually, I could finish my job on time if only my boss and other subordinate will come on time too. I know their feeling, coz I am practicing fasting also.
It's my first time to practice fasting and I could say that it was real hard for my first 3 days.
- I will take
Suhoor between 2:00AM to - 3:00AM.
- Sleep till 7:00AM (work starts at 8:30AM)
- Work till 2:30PM
- Sleep after work and wake up before
iftar (depends on the Sun)
- Going out in the night or Couch Potato style till 3:30AM
Conclusion:
My body was so light and I was too lazy to move. I got a splitting headache and all I want to do is sleep and wait for iftar, but once your body adopted the new system, you can seized the day and the feeling of laziness is all in the mind. I was getting used to it already when my monthly period came and I had to stop fasting until it ends. Then fast again once my flow is totally finish and the feeling of laziness is back.
Anyway, have you tried eating this? These are
Date Palm or Dates..
These are very famous during Ramadan. It's delicious, chewy, combination of sweet and sour taste like tamarind. My first time to taste this fruit and it's good with almond. Dates comes with different variety, some are with almonds, or with coated chocolates or used as jam in biscuits. Some says that these fruits serves as an approdisiac also, check with
KD or
Pipay, they knew so much about these fruits. hehehe
Since i'm fasting, I was forced to eat this first and drink water slowly to stabilize my body inorder not to hurt my stomach, and then I can eat as much as I want. I eat a lot during
iftar, and i'm too lazy to jog in the evening. All I want is tea and watch FRIENDS series till 3:30AM. No wonder I gained X pounds again… hahaha!
Tomorrow is
Eid Al-Fitr, end of Ramadan. It will be a 2-days holiday for private sector and 9-days holiday for students and government sector.
I'll be too busy also coz I'm preparing for my big vacation.
Eid Mubarak to all our Muslim brothers and sisters!
What's on my title? I really have no idea!
