The Chronicle of 8th Ramadhan

Today, the 8th day of Ramadhan, is the toughest fasting day yet this year. I'm feeling soooo... sleepy I can fall asleep standing. Sleeping late and waking up early is normal during this fasting month but somehow today even if I put something to prevent my eyelids from shutting, it would fail.

I just came back from the wash room so that I can walk around for a while. Normally, all of us in the office just hate going to the washroom because it is so far. I washed my face too to freshen up and wrote this hoping it would keep my eyes open as it forced me to think of what to write, the coherence of my sentences and so on.

I have outstation weekend training ending yesterday so no weekend for me. Hubby also have to go outstation over the weekend. I drove, he took flight so I have to fetch him at the airport. We reached home past midnight last night. I wish I can just put my luggage away, fall face down on the bed and zzzzZZzzz till sahur time but I decided to put some things away, clean up, change clothes, catching up with hubby before going to sleep. By then, it's the wee hours of morning already.

I didn't sleep after sahur fearing I'd feel tired and sleepy the whole day. But it didn't help much. After a while in the car, I can feel my eyes getting heavier and heavier. Hubby tried few things to wake me up but it didn't really work hehehe... Only when I discover I left my laptop in his car did I woke up for a while. He make a u-turn to send the laptop over and I managed to do some work until 11:40 before I willed the clock on the wall to tick quickly to 12:00 noon so I can take a nap. Our lunch time is 12-1 or 1-2. Even after the nap, I still dozed off few times. I definitely have to do something about it and decided to go to the washroom.

Much good it did because even after feeling a bit more refreshed, I'm still not very productive. Thank you for reading quite a number of paragraphs explaining how sleepy I felt today. Blogging is not considered a productive work when you're working, so is reading them hehehe... I think I felt more awake now so hopefully I can start being productive again. Happy Fasting!
