What's in it today?... My birthday!

Today mark the 10th day my dear grandmother pass away. She was 84 (estimated age). Al-Fatihah, may she be among the faithful.

And today is also my birthday. Yup, I’m a Ramadhan Baby. I’m 27 according to Hijri calendar.

According to a blog I found, the characters of a Ramadhan Baby are:

“RAMADHAN
Dia baik, pendiam, suka merendah diri. Dia tidak angkuh kepada teman yang dikenalinya. Dia tidak suka menonjolkan diriya. Kehidupannya selalu selamat.”

Is the described character true? Does it suit me? Am I like that? What can I say?... hmmm…. Most probably NOT! On a second thought, I can’t really say myself. The one who really can is my dearest Mama. Because of me, she had to fast for a whole two months. A month for replacing the Ramadhan she didn’t fast and another because she vowed to fast if I was delivered safely. My mother did fast for the first three days that year, but a nurse who checked her when she when for the monthly check-up told her not to. According to my Mama’s story, her weight when down as well as her blood pressure. So was everything else, my Mama’s statistic gone haywire. So the nurse advised her not to fast because Mama was going into labor soon.

So on the day of 14th Ramadhan, the night of 15th Ramadhan, on the year 1403 Hijri, about 10 o’clock that night out came me. I was born on a full moon and the fourth in the family. This might explain why I’m very fond of the moon (I smile every single time I saw the full moon) and has an unstable emotion (like the sea) but can sometimes be calm and easy. (!^_^)

Yeay again! Happy birthday me! (^_^)
