Habibis, it’s happening.
Ramadan is here. It’s a time of fasting, worship of Allah (God), giving, as well as reflecting on how far we’ve come and making ourselves into better humans.
With that, Ramadan Mubarak!

RAMADAN THREAD: a running log of my Ramadan experience
I did a thread like this last year and went 16-13, clincing a birth in the jannah playoffs. Never figured out where I was seeded (most likely a 15- or 16-seed).
Anyway, the goal is to go for 30-0, but would be happy to go 21-9. Inshallah, we’ll see.

*clinching. Wow, Ramadan’s been here for 20 minutes and already my brain is forgetting how to spell words.
me seeing the time realizing I have to wake up in less than four hours to eat breakfast and then start fasting
DAY 1: woke up for suhur. seeing a lot of ppl on this website awake at the same time, which leads me to suspect that a lot of you, habibis, converted to Islam and never told me. First off, how dare you leave me in the dark. Secondly, welcome to the Deen, brother/sister.
DAY 1 suhur meal: chicken parm, spaghetti with tomato sauce (leftover from last night), protein shake, water, and coffee with cream and a slight pinch of hazelnut sweetener because i’m a delicate flower when it comes to coffee, so ✍🏼✍🏼✍🏼 me
DAY 1 PREDICTION: my brain is going to perform at a below-average level, which means I should probably stay away from this website. But where’s the fun in that?
DAY 1 PROGRESS: So far, so good. Definitely one of my better 1st days, albeit, my sleep schedule is all out of whack, and I had to go grocery shopping, which is normally excruciating.
Apologies to everyone I have yet to respond to on DM or text, my brain needs glucose.

DAY 1 is in the book.
1-0
1-0
These are the types of jokes I wish I had thought of that my dad beat me to
DAY 2: almost didn’t wake up for suhur, which would’ve been quite disastrous. Trying to decide if drinking *a little* coffee is a good idea to be able to either go back to sleep but also avoid caffeine withdrawal. Decisions, decisions to make.
DAY 2 [cont’d]: I drank coffee the first day and actually had the best first day of fasting than any Ramadan I’ve had. Gonna not have any coffee this morning and try to get some legit sleep. We’ll see how it goes. Ramadan’s always been about adjustments.
