Ramadan

This is the second day I'm fasting and it's getting easier and easier each day, although days are long and when you reach the end of the day it's like it's not going to end. Do you also feel it in the air? The difference I mean. I myself think I'm closer to God. What makes this difference, I don't know, but I'm sure something has changed within me. The great feeling you have at the time of Sahar and Eftar can not be exchanged for anything.
I've started my Spanish class from where I left off and I'm enjoying the class very much, for I hadn't been in touch with Spanish for at least two months. We watch Spanish movies, read Spanish books and the like. Recently I've been listening to Marc Anthony's songs and I try to write down the lyrics. Later I check the internet for the correct version of the lyrics and then I try to memorize it. That's how I did with English and I hope it works the same way. In the meanwhile--I saw this expression in Sherlock Holmes series instead of using "in the meantime"--I keep on reading the old book of detective stories mentioned in between the dashes to keep my English refreshed. Beautiful descriptions it has; Holmes and his vast knowledge in poisons, different kinds of cigars and their ashes, tracing different footsteps and so many other things that amazes me to a great extent. His way of backward reasoning instead of forward is really interesting. He's described in such a way that you nearly think he had actually existed in some era. I've finished "A study in scarlet" and nearly through with "The sign of four". There's a long way to the end of the book, but I can't wait to see what happens next. By the way I'm getting pretty absent-minded I guess with all that background I have from the book, there are many parts I don't remember at all!
