"Rest" Day
I told myself not to write anything during weekends but here I am with my mobile phone tapping away furiously on the screen of my phone. Okay, not furiously, it was just a hyperbole and nothing but an exaggeration, that's my thing - exaggeration.
Of course I'm careful in tapping on the screen phone albeit fast, it's pretty new so I don't want to break it yet or anything like that. As a matter of fact I just bought a jelly case for it for more than $20. Again, $20! I know that for others that may seem cheap but not to me! I'm just your average $1 case from Shoppee kind of guy. That's why I feel ripped off with that. But I didn't have a choice, I had to use up that "voucher" in-store and that's the only "affordable" thing I could get. But still, argh.
Anyway, so why am I freewriting now? Is there something I have in mind that I want to say? Well, nothing much, the usual. I'm just kind of bored and kinda tired. Cause, you know, it's "rest day".
It's Sunday and it's rest day. We're supposed to rest, right? But why do I feel like I'm even more tired during Sundays than work days? I just find it weird.
I opened my eyes at around 7:30 in the morning. I found it hard to keep my eyes open so I hit my internal snooze button and slept again for about an hour more. When I finally decided to get up, I walked straight into the bathroom for my morning routine. And nope, you don't wanna know what I do in the morning for about 30 minutes or so. Let's leave it at that.
After that, I faced the dirty clothes that piled up over the week. I exercised my arms a bit more by washing them.
Some cocktail hotdogs and eggs for a late breakfast. And after that, a quick run to the grocery store to pick up some... guess what? Surprise, some more detergent and a shaving cream. Also, are shaving creams really worth it? I just used it for the smell after you shave, plus the coolness and the cold sensation while you do it.
Oh, and I just saw how much people there are in the mall today too. I was so surprised how jam-packed it is now. Little kids running around bumping to everything, everyone and without their masks off. Also some of them are crawling and swimming on the floor. Amazing. Maybe we all just forgot that there's still a pandemic and a virus active all around the world. But hey, what do I know? Who am I to care, right?
And then there's this a little elderly group. We were sitting at a table in a restaurant and the restaurant filled with people. They came in and they were ushered to a table next to us. And then they had the audacity to asked the waiter to put them in a table where there are less people. I almost spat out the food I was chewing. I was like, there's no table anymore and there's a line out. Why would you go into a crowded restaurant and ask for a place without much people? Just order for takeaway and go away. Lol.
I am not against to opening up places and getting back to our previous normal life. I am not against my neighbours singing karaoke and not singing at all, I'm not against them shouting the lyrics of Journey's Faithfully. I just wish that people don't forget how badly we were terrorised by the unseen foe. I just wish that we won't forget how many people suffered under the crown of the virus and I just wish people don't forget that we still should take safety measures. I just wish.
Hi!
I hope that this little freewriting article finds you well. I just had to do it, I'm bored. So, play along.
Also, if you want to jump into the action of writing here's a prompt to keep you running.
Tell me about your dream rest day.
What was your most memorable weekend?
What do you usually do during the rest day?
Also if you would be so kind, kindly submit it to Prompt Factory.
Whew. Why should rest days be so tiring? Ugh, adulting sucks, big time. Lol.
Hang back, relax...
Cheers!!!
