the last time i fasted away from Malaysia..was when i was at uni....i still remember breaking fast in class with a bottle of juice and bar of choc....only to comeback home to halls to a plate of takeaway from the chippies down the street...sedih kan..tapi thats uni life....this year will be the 1st time fasting away from home...but as a wifey and a mummy and im starting to think like mama now....plannning out what to cook for 1st day of breakoffast and...the next..etc...funny actually..i use to never care wat to eat as i know they will be good food on the table when i comeback from work!
in cairo...ramadhan is very big....apparently its more meriah the ~EID itself...all the lampu lip lap are up now..and everything single shop..even the tiniest corner shop is fillled with nuts, dates, dried figs...macam macam..i wanted to buy some the other day and i couldnt make up my mind...berjenis jenis kurma! and of course not forgetting all the ramadham lanterns...i havent got one in my flat..maybe ill get one...:)
the working times here during ramadhan has changed too....everyone finished of at 2pm....enuff time for a little siesta before buka puase...one of my cairenese fren told me that, during ramadhan, they hardly sleep....some even sleep after Sahur..some just eat all nite...some pray all nite..some just wander in the streets...shopping malls are super packs these days...i went to carrefour yesterday and it was impossbile to even push a trolley without bang in the next trolley!!..ARgghhhh.
so too all...muslims..`RAMADHAN AL KAREEM'
