I just got home from karaoke with Khun Cheng and his classmate. Upon entering the house, I immediately break my fast with a couple of dates and a glass of orange juice followed by a decent meal.
Indeed, it is that time of the month again! The holy month of Ramadan. One of the five pillars of Islam that a muslim have to follow. Just so everyone knows, during this month, muslims are abstain from eating and drinking from dawn to dusk, moreover, shy away from committing sins . I must say, a challenge that I am reluctant to perform. Fortunately, fasting during ramadan has been a thing of a past since I was young, so it shouldn't be any problem anyway. Moreover, the best part of ramadan is, neighbours usually tend to swap dishes that have been prepared. It has always been a tradition during this month. Since we are refrained from eating for long hours, I believe we are ought to sample all kind of dishes once we break our fast. However, one thing i dislike about fasting is that I am not able to participate in physical activies such as sports or working out in the gym. These are the types of activities that would make you sweat and require loads of energy so as to be able to perform well, which can be detrimental to a person's health if it goes on without food. I guess, if I feel the need to do sports or go gym to maintain fitness, unfortunately the ideal time to do it will be at night, after breaking my fast.
Coincidentally, this year, the month of ramadan happen to take place during my school study break. Which means, no school for about 3 weeks, hereafter, I will have to sit for my final exams. During this lengthy break, an ideal plan will be to make use of the time to study and prepare for my exams, however, I find it to be quite early to start my revision and so, lately, I have been going out to the cinema, went to karaoke, met up with old friends and also, not forgetting to attend my driving lessons. Sadly, there is still a long way to go before I could eventually get a driving license. So I have got to be patient.
So far, the two recent movies that I have watched are Predators, which was way back in mid of July and Phua Chu Kang which was about last week. To be honest, Predators was way below par. As expected, group of humans killing a group of monsterous-like creatures. Utterly nothing special. The storyline wasn't interesting for my liking. The fact is, since it is the remake of the previous Predators movie, I find it no different than the current one. The most dissapointingly, allowing Adrien Brod as the main actor for the movie was a bad choice. I suppose, the makers of the movie could have picked an actor who is bulky enough more like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the previous movie. I felt that Adrien Brod was very lanky and look way scrawny in the movie. Could have choose a better main actor though.
Moving on, PCK movie wasn't that bad. The movie encompasses some good moral values that viewers can learnt from, moreover, the movie was full of emotional and without a doubt brimming with laughter. However, having been watching PCK shows on television before and had become a fan of it, I realised that the movie could have been funnier than I expected. Well, the movie certainly made me laugh, but, it didn't tickle me up to the point where I will be laughing to tears or laughing till my stomach get hurts.
Now the month of July has past, I am looking forward for the future.
