Basboy’s Weblog

I have been spending much of my free time updating my video blog, or generally uploading videos to my youtube account. This is especially convenient during Ramadan, as I find myself quite useless from lack of energy while fasting, and especially so after a day of working.
Funnily enough, though, I can always talk a little- to the camera- and call that a check-in with my blog. Check out my latest “entry” here:

Writing, on the other hand, I am much more precise about and always feel the need to perfect my sentences to… well, to be less obvious and more intellectual-sounding, actually! That can be quite draining, I think you would agree.
Nonetheless, I wanted to check in during this blessed month of Ramadan, and wish all those that I have not already a really pure and rewarding time. The month is already at the midpoint, and I, for one, can already see the end. I know that Eid is going to be quite a highlight this year, insha’Allah, as my parents will be joining us during that time. They have spent much of the summer overseas, and that vacation has extended to most of Ramadan. During this time, I have had two siblings leave our fair city to move on to new academic or work lives. It is for this reason that Eid will be that much more special, as we will be going to see both my older brother and little sister for our holiday. Holidays, after all, are not the same without family (or at least, that is my opinion)
I wish you all a great time this month, and an even better Eid Al-Fitr. Please pray for the betterment of all of us.
