KARACHI: It's only the fourth day of Ramazan and we're already questioning the commitment we started with. When co workers start taking shape of a samosa, and when you envy little kids for their 12pm rozas, that's when you realize that these rozas won't be as easy as you thought.

Here are 11 emotions we all feel when fasting during the holy month. You know they're true!

1. Ladies, rejoice! It's that time of the month

We know you secretly hope for that break, don't even deny it.

2. When the non-rozaidars eat in front of you

and you secretly hope they choke on their food

3. 10 seconds before fajr when you're trying to stuff your face with everything and anything

We know you tried chugging eight glasses of water, that's going to cost you, buddy. Good luck trying to sleep feeling like a whale.

4. When it's only midday and your mind starts playing tricks on you



5. When work starts to become a drag and you could swear your screen looks like a pakora

Let's hope they don't see you slobbering all over your screen

6. And just when you're stepping out of work, the boss calls you to do one last thing

DARN YOUUUUU!!

7. When you see food on the table minutes before the iftar and feel a high

and start prepping for it

8. Only to fight with your siblings over pakoras the second you hear the Maghrib azan

Beware, World War III is about to break loose

9. Result: before and after iftar

Peekabo!

10. Going to tarawee like...

11. And just when you think it's over, you realise this is only the beginning

You are not alone, this too shall pass.

Mohammad | 9 years ago | Reply when people all over the world appreciate, respect and encourage Muslim during fast, and they are really amazed that how do we do without eat and drinking for such a long period, here are some like you making fun and mocking it. I never had any of your point from 1-11, and many other too. Perhaps you need to change your concept about Ramadan.
Waqar | 9 years ago | Reply Excellent Article. It's saddening that all these mullah wannabes are so tense about enjoying life, they think they have the divine right to spoil the fun for others, very sad. It's exactly you people who make Pakistan the saddest country on earth.
