Ramadan Diary – Countdown to Eid & A Busy Day at the Bazaar!!!

Hello friends!!!

Ramadan is almost over!!! Can you believe it??? 28 fasts went by, only a few remaining!!! Time is flying so fast!!! Everybody is doing lots of preparations for Eid!!! The market is packed, people are shopping and the festive atmosphere is alive!!!

My day was up and running very early in the morning!!! I slept, woke up and started my day with the recitation of the quoran!!! It always brings me peace and makes my day feel gratful!!! After that, I was on morning classes on my studying from 7:45 AM to 10:45 AM!!!! time passed fast as I did my lessons!!! Ramadan days are soooo slow at times but if you are too busy, it flies!!!

By 5:00, I had a few things to run!!! So I headed to our nearest Chowk Bazar……. There were bursting with life!!! Markets was full of colorful lights and shops was decorated with banners and people moving around for clothes, shoes and gifts for Eid!!! The spirit at the event was awesome!!! Everyone looked happy and excited!!!

While in the process of shopping, my uncle rang me and asked me to pick up a few items from the baker's!!! Oh wow!!! Go to the bakery during Ramadan is always something special!!!

As I walked in, the aroma of fresh bread, cakes, cookies hit me from the first step I took!!! I wanted to buy everything!!! Haha!!! But I held myself and bought only that my uncle had asked for!!!

*Reused *

After shopping was over, I was home!!! I was getting quite fatigued by that point so rested for abit!!! The afternoon dragged somehow but soon it was iftar time!!! My mother and sister were already in the kitchen, cooking fantastic dishes!!!

The aroma of samosas, pakoras, and fruit chaat swirled in the house!!! Yummm!!! My stomach began to protest at just the aroma!!!

Finally, Maghrib azan echoed, and it was time to break the fast!!! The first sip of water felt so refreshing!!! We enjoyed our iftar together, talking and laughing!!! Ramadan is truly special because it brings families closer!!!

After iftar, I prayed Taraweeh and spent some time with my family!!! We talked about our Eid plans and discussed what to wear!!! Only a few days left now!!! Excitement is increasing!!!

That’s all for today, friends!!! See you in the next diary!!! Eid is coming!!!
