to all Muslims around the world, happy Ramadhan fasting. ๐
the start of my first day of fasting has been rather interesting. the night before i was feeling the usual ‘sleep attack’ right about 10pm. usually if i force myself to keep awake this attack will pass and i’d be up till 12-1am. but this time i decided to concede, since i had to wake up at 5am for breakfast.
had two slices of bread with peanut butter. ๐
decided to go back to sleep after subuh (dawn) prayers, which was a mistake since there wasn’t much time left after to complete a proper sleep cycle. i was rather groggy until i almost got into an accident as i was about to get onto the federal highway. i was taking my usual route on Jalan Universiti and as I was exiting onto the highway i would usually estimate where i’ll be able to slip into traffic coming in from Jalan Gasing. this time i noticed ample space after a green taxi. so i assumed the green taxi would be moving on its way, checking the speed of the next oncoming vehicle, so i was moving and not looking towards the front. as i was about to cut into the proper lane, i shockingly noticed that the taxi was barely moving, and was closing into MY current lane. at the time i was still in my lane, but if i had continued on my course i’d have whacked into the left-rear corner of the taxi. luckily i was able to break and swerve away in time. that probably wore out my tires a bit more, but at least my body is intact.
so that was the morning… seems that there’s more to come.
