Ramadan

[nathalie]

With all respect ...

But I don't really see the point in don't eating during the day, and "stuffing" yourself during the evening/night.

I should be eating during the day, and don't stuff myself in the evening/at night hehe

*claps* Yay, go Dan, go!

No, seriously though, that's awesome So how'd you do? Did you think you'd die of hunger? Were you pretending you weren't hungry, but was really dying?

EDIT: @Nathalie: The point of fasting is to teach you self-restraint, you know, abstinence Basically, if you can resist food and drink, you're able to restrain from anything. And it's also to show us how the poor and unfortunate feel when they can't afford any.

the first day was difficult, but the second day was quite easy

I just thought of the people affected by the tsunami, and that made me do it, even if it was only for 2 days

I understand that, but then still, instead of eating during the day, you just eat after the sun goes down.

I once didn't ate for 3 / 4 days, because one of my baby tooth was loose and about to fall out, and I was scared to swallow it during eating

i did a 48 hour sponsered fast for the victims of the Tsunami in South East Asia in Janurary.

I raised ?150 all by my lonesome

hey that's great!

So when you say you fasted for 48 hours, you didn't mean nonstop did you? Or did you break it at certain times?

...and that concludes Ramadan, folks Well, for some people that is. For others--such as myself--today would be the final day. But I do think this has been a memorable Ramadan, especially compared to last year's.

Happy Eid!
