Haven't been writing anything for few weeks now. Since i got some time to kill, might as well write something right now.
Tomorrow, insyaallah will be the start of Ramadhan;the fasting month for muslims. Can't believe that it has actually been nearly a year since I left Sealand Freedom. Had my first experience of fasting on board a ship there. It was 'hell'!. With so much work to do and the ship trading only in the gulf area, there was no way that we can fast as we normally did back home. There was the weird working schedule to deal with, what more with the ship calling a port almost everyday. Then there was also the heat. But we were quite lucky that during that time, it was almost 'winter' season in the gulf. So it weren't as bad as the heat during may to august. The biggest challenge was from the fellow crew. With only the 2 of us (Helmi and me) being muslim, we did face some 'issues'. However, that were sorted out, no harm being done. Alhamdulillah, we managed to fast for the whole 2 weeks of Ramadhan on board that ship before signing off and coming back to malaysia. It sure was a big relief for us to be able to continue fasting at home, with our families.
anyway, the reason I'm writing this is to remind my fellow friends out there, jangan tuang pose!!senang jer nak pose dkt malaysia nih....hehehehe...bersyukurlah......ciao
