First thing first: SELAMAT BERPUASA everyone! And to those not fasting, thank you for being polite to not eat in front of us.
It has been cool, things have been going pretty fast, though the hunger pangs does get strong sometimes.
But the bad part is when I can smell everyone. On an empty stomach, I can smell much better than usual.
And man, it doesn’t help that I can tell exactly if the person has been there or not. Even if that person has left already, if he/she has been there earlier, I can smell their smell. It lingers like they are there!!
If they are really there, its worse. I can taste their smell.
No, I would love to show off if this is a convenience. Nope, if people smell like flowers that would be good. I am overwhelmed by all the smells now.
Now, I don’t have to even check if someone is around, or ask (though it helps) if someone just left, I can just breathe and choke.
Funny thing is, I can smell myself as well. People don’t usually can tell their scent.
So if you’re sweaty, and didn’t bathe or wearing perfume, even just a little.. please try to understand when I scrunch my face. It’s not that I am disgusted or what, it’s just too strong and overwhelming.
I’m hungry, thats just it.
The only smell I can tolerate is the smell of grass, anything else adds to the suffocation. And smokers, STAY AWAY. I might just go into a frenzy of running away, or covering you with towels so I don’t smell it.
After I break fast, I feel relief. All the smells is greatly toned down. Though smokers, still not in my happy list.
But there is a good thing to this though. Fasting has made my headaches lesser, I’m more alert most of the time, my moodswings is mostly gone and when food is served, I can tell what it is without looking.
Heh.
