Blissful Sundays..!
Posted by Prasad on January 20, 2008
My creativity was on an all-time low for the past few days..! Busy and hectic days at the workplace didn’t help it either. So after a long and stressful week, I was happy to have two full free days for myself..
Holidays are blessings, especially for bachelors who live alone. There is no one to wake you up at 7 or 8 in the early morning. You decide your routine. No rules to follow, no schedules to adhere to.
My typical Sunday routine actually starts a little earlier than Sunday, with a late night movie on Saturday. I usually spend the first five days of the week downloading movies, and save them for watching on a Saturday. After watching the movie (yesterday I watched Once in a Summer on visio’s suggestions… a review will follow soon) in a home-theatre effect late into the night, I sleep for about 9 to 10 hours to wake up late at about 10.30 in the morning. Self-made tea or coffee with newspaper is the usual breakfast. Then some surfing and downloading.. Lunch follows soon enough. Having a mess that provides palatable food in time helps me a lot. I need not depend on my culinary skills to save myself from starvation. Post-lunch session depends on my mood… either it is sleep or just some TV or internet or loud songs. I might hangout with friends in the evening, depending on their plans, else the post lunch session extends till dinner in the same mess. Again some internet surfing…. followed by sleep at around 12 midnight, with the threat of Monday looming large in my head..!!
Other routine household chores get inserted anywhere in between. No strict schedules there..
Probably, most bachelors have similar schedules. Post yours too…!! I personally know many of my friends living in hostels who have schedules worse than mine..
But yeah, all this lasts only for a certain period of time…. And of course, it is not always as good as it seems to be.. I start feeling lonely sometimes..
