Reminiscing My Last Ramadan

Ramadan, my favorite time of the year. When I was still going to school, I remember how we, our whole classroom, wished that it's already Ramadan. And also at home, my sister always blabber that she wished its already Ramadan.  And there is one thing that we are certain after Ramadan, many people tend to be so generous and stuffs. And I remember my very first Ramadan, and it was our very first arrival here in Saudi Arabia. And it's been few days since we arrived, I have no idea on where we are and what are we doing in this country! But anyways, daytime, Ramadan period, no eating or drinking or smoking outside, and I was young and stupid back then. 


And since this is my last few months here in the Kingdom, there are somethings that are only done or can only be done in Ramadan. Why don't I make a list of it? Then, maybe not. 


When I leave, I have to admit, I will cry, call me gay or mushy or something sissy, but I don't care. Even though I am not an Arab, I learned to love this country despite some restrictions that really push my buttons.


Well, I guess this is my last Ramadan, so I am greeting you all a "Ramadan Mubarak!" or "Ramadan Kareem!" , whatever works for you.
