So, It's already the second day of Ramadan, and i'm already feeling like i'm fasting for ages :)
Saturday night, we had a goodbye party together with a birthday party (both for aiesec interns in zurich), so it was quite cool, lot's of people, lot's of fun. The best part was, arround 4.00am, when we start starving, and most of the people went to sleep, after being so drunk, so Andre (my brasilian flatmate, me, and 2 italians, we went out to zurich downtown, looking for a kebab (turkish fastfood :), It took us quite a while to realise that we dont have any chance of finding a food place open !!!! We had to go back home at 5.00am, and we decided to cook pasta !!!! Of course, me and Andre, we had to chill while our italian friends took care of the Pasta :))) It was so good, especially that i had to hurry before the sun come up, and it was just on time !!
so, woke up the next day, and we went directly back to Basel. Where i had to prepare my meal, and i had a video conference with my family so i could see them breaking fast on LIVE :)) so i kinda had dinner with them :)) I prepared some Rice with chicken + baked potatos, and an omelette, and a salty salad.
Today at work, i was really hungry, especially when everyone left for the lunchbreak and i stayed with my computer.....some people couldnt believe that we can't even drink water, and they were like : bloody hell, that's not healthy, your god is so demanding !!!!
how funny is that ?? :))) At the same time, they know that my god is their god, and if it wasn't hard, there's no point of making it !!!!!
So, finally i managed to leave arround 17h.00, made some shopping and then i start preparing the dinner (again :), it was time for some TAJINE, and pasta with chicken (again :), and i we were 4 people arround the table, Andre, Asia (polish Flatmate), and Sonal (canadian trainee who just arrived 2 days ago). It was good to know that my Tajine was appreciated :)) (like usually) And then, the usual conversations about Ramadan, why is that, and how do you feel, and blablabla :))
Anyway, we had a good time, especially that it's raining outside, and we were so full that we couldnt even move to the living room :)
Conclusion : So far so good, im still able to keep the good mood and the smile (yeah, especially that i've got my job contract on friday, and im really happy because of that).
Will try to find out how/when can i join for prayers in the mosques here in Basel, probably during the second half/last 10 days of Ramadan, to feel the event !!!!
Gotta go and get some sweets now :)
Untill later.
