This year in North America , Ramazan are supposed to start from September 1st, 2008.
In my childhood , I remember the preparation for Ramazan would start long before they were supposed to start and then same thing with Eid. I live in USA now where Ramazan is not in the air , but in Pakistan you will see that the shop keepers will start to stock and display stuff for Ramazan and Eid which will get you in that festive mode and will remind you that it is that time of the year again.
I used to look forward to enjoy special Iftri and then special sahri foods.
Ahhhhhhhhhh I miss those days.
What do you say ?
P.S: TLK has shared a very good tip for smooth sailing in Ramazan. Please share any tips or tricks for preparation or for getting through this test mandated by Allah( SWT) smoothly.
Ramzan always comes in easy for me .. I am little anxious but form Roza #1, its all smooth and easy .. alhamdulillah ..
I drink one cup of coffee but it has to be good cofee. I Ramazn, I drink that in sehri. After Sehri and Fajr, I lie down again for one hour or so and then go to work ..
that coffee + nap takes care of and heavy head feeling for the rest of the day

May Allah (swt) help us and give us the ability to be able to keep all our fasts. =)
One thing I love about Ramzan is reading taraweeh. It’s the one time me and my mum just sit up and pray the whole night.
But seriously, in the morning afterwards I will be as tired as mad…which leads to me coming home and sleeping until Iftaari. Which I guess is a good thing.
Oh Man!! I remember being called to sehri whn everything was already n the table:bummer:
And the dah bhale and the jalebiyan in aftari..and oh yes the** paaon ka kutta howi fruit** chat…
