Her alarm buzzed at 6.30am, 6.45 &
7am only to be turned off and pull the blankets to cover her face, even without
blinking the eyes. She know there’s going to be more to jerk her out of bed and
promptly that rang at 7.30am.
Even without properly opening her eyes
she took her phone, changed to silent mode (the notification sound irritates
her in the morning) and connected to WIFI to scan through the messages. As usual the WriteTribe group is fully active
with more than 100 messages, she thinks while keeping her phone aside.
After turning, tossing and stretching
she takes herself out of the bed to the washroom after the morning prayers, grabbing
the book on her bed stand.
Once out of washroom with a “Chechi Kaapi” scream she slammed her room shut and within 20 minutes she’s
out of her home with another scream, “Amma Bye. Breakfast
venda.”
Once at work, her time flies with the
daily to-do list and works. But once in a while she feels that a 9-5 job was much easier to heart and brains than
the own ventures as there’s no pressure except for deadlines.
But the freedom one enjoys, and the
excitement and adrenaline rush to do something new and the happiness when good things happen is
immense. At that moment for her every ounce of pressure feels really small.
By afternoon one thing she feels grateful for
is a home and mom, where a warm lunch will be waiting for her everyday even at 4pm.
The break time is usually hooked up
with blogging, reading or TV time.
After break, work resumes by 6pm which
can extend till 10-11pm depending upon the scenario.
Once back home and done with the day, after a quick dinner, either she slobs onto her favorite corner of the couch
with a movie running or she retires to bed with a book until every drop of
energy is oozed out. Her daily life is a routine. Sometimes it freaks her out fearing its monotonous, making her forget that it's OK to meltdown. But most of the days, there's something good in a routine to look forward.
And that's Sleep!
