THE HOLY MONTH OF RAMADAN

Today is the start of Ramadan here in the middle East. It is my 2nd time to experience it. I may not be a muslim but not eating and drinking for 8 hours in the morning makes me like I'm one of them. In the office, pantries are closed and only be open at 6 pm after fasting is finished. So imagine yourself working for 8 hours, eating and drinking is strictly prohibited and being in that situation is a very tough one specially when you are starting to have a double vision hehehehe. I am lucky last year since I am not in the head office, I can still eat and drink without being caught, but now it's a hard one, the only option is to eat inside the comfort room. Yes, people here at the head office do it secretly by eating inside the comfort room since pantries are closed. Ladies are lucky enough since inside thier comfort rooms doesn't smell bad, and what about ours,? goodluck! I don't wanna mention how gross it is eating inside men's room. So how can I survive this? Eating heavy meal before leaving the house, drinking plenty of water too. I am also bringing chocolates to give me energy the whole day, but still not enough to keep you full, so i bring small cup cakes kept to my pocket and eat them secretly and banana and I have no choice but to eat inside the comfort room.




This is for one month and I hope I can survive it coz I can't afford to lose weight hehehe. To all muslims Ramadan Kareem to you, and to all non-muslims enjoy eating hehehe.
