Assalamu'alaykum warrahmatullahiwabarakatuh
Alhamdulillah, in couple of hours we can meet again with blessed month,
Ramadhan! Yes, Ramadhan is coming. Ramadhan is here. So excited and happy to
face RamadhanThis is the month when we will get lots of peace in daily life.
For Muslims, this is a month full of worship with many blessings that can be
obtained. Before i tell you about my experience in ramdhan i wan to tell you
about fasting in Ramadhan. may i? ok check this out! Normally they
will fasting for a month before Hari Raya and usually start from dawn
until dusk.We are prohibited from eating, drinking and engaging in negatif
activity. Besides that, they are also encouraged to control their negative
temper such as anger and addiction. Therefore, fasting helps to develop
good behavior.there is special exemption for a girl who period during
the fasting month, but they have to replace it after that. Most of my
friends, they replace it when near to another fasting month which is another
year coming soon. There is a reason why they replace at that period.I do
ifttar with my family and i experience it, fasting actually also make
us close to each otherespecially with friends and
family. Iftar refers to the evening meal when we break our
fast. Normally when they break their fast, they will Iftar with their
friends and family. This is the moment, where they can spend time, sit and eat
together. For family, mostly parent will cook. Its also can be likefamily
gathering. That's why all my friends leaving me here all. and went back
home to eat mom's cooks. Besides that, all of their sibling will go back home
as well. So, they can meet all the family members and spend time together.Then
i also found out something that i like during fasting month, which
is Bazaar Ramadhan~
This is day five we do fasting. I know it is hard for the kids to wake up
and have early meal at three. There those men fall asleep after finish their
meals have sleeping.And for Ar and Ir, this is the first year they do a full
fasting, from shubuh to maghrib. About 14 hours. It is dry season now, and days
are pretty hot. With the daily activities they keep doing, it's wonderful how
they can pass it well.
I hope they'll keep the spirit to the end of the
fight.Ramadhan kareem. Have a great fasting month, everyone.Bazaar meaning
market. In around my home, when it come to Bazaar Ramadhan, there is a lot
of variety foods and drinks. You can get a lot of indonesia
traditional foods which is not all the times we can get it such as my favourite
food, risoles, tofu eith some vegetables in it, Ondeh-ondeh, donnuts, and so
on. there are some drink too, such as : ice cendol, ice fruit and etc. But
there is one thing that i don't like is, sometimes the seller took this chances
to mark up the prices and also sold foods at small quantity. in bazar
ramadhan a lot of people there, there are children join with their parent,
brother or their sister. the bazar ramdhan usually open from 4pm until before
we are iftar. bazar ramadhan always there are in ramaadhan every year. it's
nice :)
Beside I iftar with family , Iftar jama'i
with my friend in indrakila street, I really happy can iftar with them. because
they are my past friend, they school in pondok pesantren, there are live in
lamongan, samboja and bandung. fiah, milah from samboja. and jundy from
lamongan, and gilby from bandung. miss theem so badddlly!!!! but if ramdhan

Tik..tik..tik.... oh time! We only have 5 days, i.e.
120 hours before the end of Ramadan. Half of that time will be spent sleeping,
eating, and working, so you roughly have 60 hours of Ibadah time.She just tell
Yani to wake me up to help her make cookies.Officially this is my first time to
make cookies by myself. We make it because we dont have any cookies for
entertaining our guests in lebaran. Usually people make it before Lebaran but i
dont have time for it due to my office activities and my duty as marching band
player of kabupaten tangerang on independence day. So we just buy some cookies
and my mom make it some. But that cookies already give out, so we make it.After
I made it, I just thinking that it is easy and cheap. I will make it for
everyone.And I will browse on internet some easy receipt cookies and make it
for people around me.I will find rainbow cake receipt for my farewell party in
office. Maybe I can make it for my friend in office :)My mom said that being a woman,
we should be smart and creative. So we can make some money too.and I think
woman's job like cooking or sewing is fitter for me than others job. Because it
makes me happy,although I can do better for others job than my rivals.
:p Yeah, I am me, I will try everything. Curios about what you can do is
fun .I know I’m going to miss Ramadhan when it’s gone, but I feel like I’m not
making the most of it.
Dearest Ramadan can’t believe that your
time with us has come to an end.Before you arrived I worried about how we would
manage to accommodate such an honoured guest into our home and family. I need
not have been concerned.Your arrival, as always, was one of joy and
blessings.You brought light into our home. Your presence made sure we ate together,
even in the early hours of the morning, experiencing the joy of family meals.
You helped us control our tempers, and be that little bit kinder to each other.
You allowed us to remember Allah together – and talk about The Merciful in
greater depth.Some days, having you in our family was not easy. You demanded
and challenged us. That, however, is what a good teacher does. You taught us
that we can be self-disciplined. You showed us that we can rise to the
challenge. You made us aware that we can better than we are. For all these
things, and more, THANK YOU! We are going to miss you, but pray that we
can welcome you into our home again next year.
