Am I lucky or what?
I have a boss, who takes us for lunch on the very first day at a posh restaurant.
I have a boss, who wishes me Ramadan Mubarak.
I love my job. For now at least.
Ramadan Mubarak People :) Especially all my mates.

Ramadan Mubarek!
Posted by: Nicole on November 7, 2002 03:12 PMHey that was so Sweet of you Nicole!
I'm so excited about Ramadan :) Ramadan is one of the 12 months of the lunar calendar that Muslims follow. We fast from sunrise to sunset everyday for a month, and during this period we don't have any food and drink, no sex, and try to be at your best-est!
That doesn't necessarily mean though that you can be as mean as you want through out the year, but you make an extra effort during Ramadan ;)
What Ramadan does is, it helps you to give you an idea of how the billions of starving people around the world feel, and helps you to exercise self-control.
Plus, a lot of muslims give away 1/40th of their wealth during this month (although they can do it anytime during the whole year). This makes it slightly easier for quite a few poor :D
The best part about it is right at the end of Ramadan.. when we have EID!! That's the fun part when we celebrate the end of the fasting month. :D
That was quite a long entry! :)
Ramadan Mubarak again!!!!!
