We have been fasting for 6 days now, and as usual time flies and without we knowing it Ramadan will leave us soon and its Hari Raya time. The fasting has been going on well, no problem, at least for me. Hubby is ok except he has runs of fever and cold, but manage to fast nevertheless. The days fly by and usually the time to break the fast come quickly, i guess being at work helps. I only feel bad about Ayang, she seems to be running and rushing all the time lately. She has to attend school from 7.30am to 11.50am (thats after waking up at 3.30am for sahur and catch about 1 hr sleep afterwards), then she continues for her ugama school from 12.30pm until 2pm after that she has to rush to her tuition class from 2pm until 4.30pm. Then only she can rest for the day. Its good that she doesnt have to go to tuition every day with this kind of schedule. Well her tuition classes are on monday, tuesdays & wednesdays. Its very tiring, she is fasting but she has to do it, her exam is just around the corner.
Come to think of it, i am not very happy with her ugama class, its radiculous to force these children to attend them for one hour only, well the first 1/2 hr is for zohor prayer then tadarus. The 1 hour is just for revisions, nothing else. And talking about time, these kids only have about 1/2 hr time span to go home and change into their ugama uniforms and then off again to their ugama school. Ayang is lucky enough that both schools are nearby. What about those kids whose schools are further away from one another? How on earth can they reach home on time, change and go back to school in 1/2 hour? What about the traffic? I pity these children. Yesterday since it was saturday i picked up Ayang from her ugama school and i noticed some of these kids didnt even change to their ugama uniforms. They just went to ugama in their morning uniform which indicated that they did not have the time to go home and change! Life must be so hectic for these children during Ramadan where we all are supposed to limit our activities. Hubby and i even get off work at 1pm and call it a day! I dont see any benefits of having ugama school for anyone. Like the old days, during my school days, the ugama school was off for the whole month of Ramadan. And we all turned out ok. So why do we have to start now and torture those children?
