This month happens to be a Bulan Puasa month. All malay peoples are puasa-ing... I really admire their determination of not eating the whole day. I myself cant achieve that. Whenever I smell or see food, I wont be able to stop myself from eating. Anyway, I am resisting myself from eating here in my office as there are malays here. I cant eat infront of them, I have to respect them and not tempt them with the smell of the foods. I remember for the past few years during puasa month, I was not in Penang for a few days of the month. Last year, I went to Bali with my gang and the previous year, I went to Taiping or wherever. I cant remember which year I went to Taiping during puasa month. But this year, I have to be in Penang and sit at home as this month is also the hungry ghost festival month. My mum ask me to be good and stay at home during the night, she wont let me go to Cameron Highlands with my gang but anyhow, that trip was cancelled due to we cant find any place to stay there. We were too slow in finding and booking the apartments or hotels and is all fully booked now. How sad!
I've always like puasa month. Most of the mamak or fast food restaurants will be quite empty during lunch hours, so I dont have to line up and wait too long for my food to come. The pasar ramadan is one of my favourite place too. There are so many delicious food there that every time I go, I'll buy back tons of food as everything is so nice and I cant resist myself from buying it to eat. Hehe... I'll get fat soon!
Happy Puasa-ing and Selamat Hari Raya!
