The Girl With No Face

there’s like no way to stop it from happening!! there’s no where you can go to run away from it!! ramadan starts whether you like it or not!!

what is it about Ramadan that feels hypocritical to me?
I’ve always thought that the whole point of Ramadan is to have more compassion and empathy for the poor and the starving, and this whole compassion thing is ment to make people be more humble which will lead them to be more generous, which will result in ending poverty. (i figured THAT is the reason zakaa is given after ramadan — or am i wrong?).

another reason why i think Ramadan is necessary is because its a sort of detox. I once went to this health spa thing somewhere in czech, and part of their treatment would be to fast one whole day a week. i mean 24 hours. you can only drink water. they say its very good for the body to rid of all the toxins or whatever the bad crap in your body is called.

there’s also this treatment, my Bulgarian friend told me about, for people who have rashes or some kinds of diabetes where the patient gets to fast for like 12 days or something .. apparently it cures.

i get it .. i get it .. fasting is good. ramadan is good. but people have gotten it all wrong. its strange to me when i see people be more religious in ramadan (its funny cause everytime i ask this question, my sister sarcastically says: don’t you get it? God only watches them in ramadan!!) people who never pray, start praying, and they start giving you all this advice.

ok ok.. i’ll try not to judge.

the things i HATE about ramadan are the fact that there’s like nothing to do, also that there’s this necessity to buy clothes even if there’s nothing decent to buy, that the only thing to do is to go to these “tent” thingies where people eat (i dunno what else they do, i’ve never been), also, if you have a party you’ll be condemned to the deepest pits of hell (or so people tell me!!).. BUT .. the thing that gets me, the thing that pisses the shit out of me, the absolute thing i canNOT stand, is the stuff on TV. the stupid STUPID bad acting and bad directing!! the MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of tv shows. and somehow, by some miracle, everyone i know watches every single one of these shows and they seem to be the only thing anyone ever ever ever talks about in Ramadan.

I’m pissed and hungry.
