the no eating and drinking

jabir 2008 (seattle)



I wake up in the middle of the night
I eat food and drink a lot of water
I chill and watch some tv
Then I brush my teeth and went back to sleep

I wake up again
I could not eat or drink
I chill for minute
It was challenging

I go outside
To waste sometime
Playing with my friends
And feeling wind on me

I come back home
Its almost time
To eat some food
So, I wait for it

It is time
When we all eat
Having a good time
With my family
