It's Ramadan :) Ramadan is the ninth month of the islamic calendar. It's popular because muslim people fast during this month. Many people think that fasting only requiers not eating and drinking from the dawn to sunset, but in fact Ramadan is also a way of training themselves not to say bad words, be nicer to others, be tolerant , be patient and generous. In addition to that, Ramadan is like a healthy diet because it's scientifically proved that fasting has a lot of benefits on the body. I live in Morocco. Here, people can't wait to "welcome" Ramadan. In the streets of each city, all people wish the others a "Ramadan Said" which means "Happy Ramadan". Everybody buys moroccan cakes, especially "Chebakia" which is one of the most popular and delicious moroccan specialities, and also "Sellou" which is a popular dessert during Ramadan. Before the first day of this holy month, you can smell the most beautiful scents and odors wherever you go, it's like the whole cities become a huge perfume with different fragrancies. Before the dawn, people eat a meal called "The Shour",it's their last meal before fasting. Then after fasting the whole day, they eat the "Ftour" at the sunset. Then, they go to pray "The Taraouih" after adhan "Al Ichaa". Generally, people who have to fast are people who reached puberty, but children can also fast if they want to, just to feel the warmth and the happiness of Ramadan.

It's Ramadan :)

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It's popular because muslim people fast during this month.
Many people think that fasting only requiers requires not eating and drinking from the dawn [here, we would probably say 'daybreak' instead of 'dawn'] to sunset, but in fact Ramadan is also a way of training themselves not to not say bad words, be nicer to others, be tolerant , be patient and generous. In addition to that [a shorter version of "in addition to that" is "additionally"], Ramadan is like a healthy diet because it's scientifically proved that fasting has a lot of benefits on for the body.

My best friend is Muslim and she explained Ramadan to me last summer. I was so intrigued that I asked her if I could celebrate it with her. Ramadan 2013 was incredibly insightful. I feel as though sometimes we forget what true hunger and thirst can be and at some point stop giving thanks for food and water... Not only did Ramadan teach me to be grateful, disciplined, and benevolent but also it inspired me (in a way) to pursue my current major in nutrition and public health at my university. (Though I fasted each day, I had the comfort of knowing there would be food after sundown... Certain communities don't have this guarantee) Happy Ramadan! *Also really well done journal entry! Your English is near perfect!
