Its Ramadan!

So Ramadan finally started and so did exam season. I have a feeling this month wont be easy. At the beginning of it all I was lucky enough to be home for a few days. It was great to spend time with my family and everyday I looked forward to our meal together (for iftar and sehri). However I had to study intensely for neurology so I decided to take a few days from fasting.

I was sad to leave home and go back to Plovdiv for my first exam but I knew time would fly by before it was time to return home. Since I got back I decided to push myself and fast everyday along with studying for my exams. I am grateful to God that I have managed to do every single one so far. It hasn't been easy but vie managed to pull myself through. I had some iftars with my flatmate initially and then I had to open some fasts alone which wasn't a good feeling since I'm so used to opening them with others like my family. Luckily I was invited to some iftar dinners and I had one at my own place which was very special to me. I will mention it in my next post. Watch this space!.

In general its been a positive start since I got back. I have passed 2 of my exams so far, and I feel like a stronger person since I've  been committed to my fasting,
I hope I spend the reaming days being productive and continue working on myself.
