A free day when you did not need to study or work.


When was it?
Why did you not have to study or work?
Did you enjoy being free?

 

The modern lifestyle is definitely a busy one and the overload of studies and work becomes very tiring sometimes.
In such a situation, a day off or a holiday is always a welcome treat.
I have had many such breaks from work but a memorable experience was during last weekend.
It was before ‘Raksha Bandhan’ right after my ‘UK student visa’ seminar and I was working on this project with a deadline that was very near.
Soon my team completed this seminar, we were rewarded a surprise but surely a pleasant one a day off.
It was Saturday and I remember having a very tranquil day.
In fact, I had spent the whole day unwinding as per my whim more than the usual holidays.
I woke up an hour later than I usually do on weekdays and spent the morning in riding a motorbike to a faraway café for a morning ride coupled with a breakfast.
Later in the afternoon, I laze around the home reading a book.
I had ordered food from a nearby restaurant as I did not want to cook.
In the evening, I went to meet my friend and we had a long conversation with delicious food and cold drinks.
I returned to my home at around eleven in the night and drifted off into comfortable and alpha level sleep.
Overall, it was a relaxing day because it came as a reward after a lot of hard work.
