Ramadan Month

Ramadan is a holy month because it is a time filled with introspection and worship. However, this year my experience during Ramadan became more challenging because I also had to maintain my swimming practice for Popda (Pekan Olahraga Pelajar Daerah) in June. During this period, I had a really busy schedule. I woke up at 3 o'clock, started suhoor, then went to the swimming pool to start my swim practice. I swam for a longer time than usual, about 2 hours and 30 minutes. After swimming, I went to school, and then to the gym. I felt that the gym was the hardest because I worked out for about 3 hours. After working out or swimming, I finally went home and slept. This was perhaps the hardest Ramadan for me, but I learned a lot of valuable lessons during this month.
