Ramadhan bits

It has been about a month since im back home. Some friends and family members think im fasting and will celebrate Eid-Fitr this year in England. Well, not everyone is on Facebook arent they? Since Naiim moved to Terengganu, and a few others finished with their degree or continuing theirs somewhere else, so i have not many to visit really this holiday. But its kinda exciting when seeing some of them, how shock they were to see me again and hearing these phrases "Oh, its been long since we last met", "Oh, u've been a lil bit different, maybe fairer aye? Maybe some snow flakes stuck on you (lol!)"(Oh, my skins were much darker back then, thanks to my childhood mates who were so tempted to ask me out in the middle of the day, when the sun stood straight on our head). Not to forget " it has been a year/years, u gained no weight still". I have to buat-buat pekak (pretend deaf) again this upcoming Eid-Fitr, like last year, especially most of my close friend's parents, they like to express their disappointment(?) how slim and slender i am. Aiyo, Pakcik and Makcik, what do you expect from someone like me after a month of fasting? Gaining another 5 kilos of weight? Thats why we called Ramadhan, the fasting month, where people dont eat during the day, for 30/29 days. I went to bazar Ramadhan after 9 days of fasting, and from what i saw, people are lesser this year than the year before. But one thing about this year's Ramadhan is, even before the very old guy sitting on big chair announcing which day we gonna start fasting, you can hear firecrackers. Well, almost every night i must say. Been missing this last year, so im going to enjoy every bits of the sound. I still got a month to go before going back to uni, so most of the time i am jobless or part time employer of me parents enterprise. I've re-enrolled last week (since i got nothing else better to do), a bit nervous, sad and exciting to be a finalist next October. Surely very busy, with all the projects and essays, so those finalist-to-be, enjoy your penultimate year holiday to the fullest. We'll be working continuously throughout the year starting next month :S Happy fasting people, no matter where you are :)
