I am Fasting By Meryem Kose

SPAGHETTI! Mmmmmmmmmm

Today I am fasting and I am going to try to fast for the rest of the Ramadan. Last Ramadan I fasted for 12 day days but this Ramadan I am going to try to fast for many more days. If I do that I will beat my record for fasting. For suhoor we ate spaghetti, Mmmmmmm. I had like 5 plated of spaghetti because it was really good. Well, I have to go now so, BYE!!!

What a parable...

"O men! (Here is) a parable set forth! Listen to it! Those on whom, besides Allah, you call, cannot create (even) a fly, if they all met together for the purpose and if the fly should snatch away anything from them, they would have no power to release it from the fly. Feeble are those who petition and those whom they petition! (Sura Hajj, Ayat 73)

Staying up at Night

This one I made after
some practice.(sorry its dark)

The first one I made was a
masjid.

Every night from like 5 days ago my brother, my younger sister, and I stayed up from taraweeh until Fajr. My other sister actually stays up but she stays mostly in her room. We stay downstairs. How it all started was that we had guests until like 2:00 and we were awake so we stayed up until Fajr. That day we made a lot of crafts for each other. They were these cool pop-up-cards we learned how to make. That time we did that in the living room. Then we decided to do it downstairs. The only problem was that we kept on forgetting stuff upstairs. Anyways the next day we continued doing art for each other. Then next day we brought our blankets downstairs and wrote stories and we shared it with each other. Then we drew pictures. Yesterday, was really fun. We started making an animation. Staying up is fun, the only problem is we wake up at like 2:30 p.m.! Well, today we woke up at 1:30.

Mid-Ramadan

Did you know that we're almost halfway through Ramadan??  Isn't it so weird that we're already on the fourteenth day?  I just stood there staring at the calendar wondering how the time went by so quickly.

Now that another week of chemistry class is over, I can write something here.  I guess you've noticed that I haven't written on this blog for a long time.

And now I want to post pictures of my apple pie waffle suhoor!  Wasn't that cool?  Except for anyone besides me who had a tummyache...

One of the best parts about this suhoor was that it was the first suhoor meal I made that actually succeeded.  Remember the Froyo bites?  Huda took a bite and then said she felt like throwing up.  We had all these frozen treats that looked cool but tasted awful.  And remember when everyone kept bugging me to make chocolate covered bananas and I made one for each person and no one ate them when I put them on the table for suhoor!!!

But since the apple pie waffles were a hit, I have become more bold and brave to make more cool suhoor stuff.  Also, maybe we can have apple pie waffles again.  Maybe for iftar instead of suhoor so I will have more time to eat them...

Do you guys have any other cool ideas for stuff we can for suhoor for the rest of Ramadan?
