Lying back on the bed
This is the time I could say I am having fun with my time here. Not much being done. Not really going out but I have an ease on my mind because I don’t have to think a lot, and worrying about my unfinished assignment. On the other hand, I am still worrying my exam result, which should be released in early June. Come on, keep it real. Doing Master is not like undergraduate. I guess I deserve to be really worried.
.
But anyway, it doesn’t seems bad as it sounds. Most of the time, I am enjoying my time on the bed. Sleeping very late around 5 am and wake up at 2pm. The weather is so weird as yesterday is was hot and today, it is so nice that I feel dragged on my bed. But as the stomach cannot fill full by itself and bladder has its own urge, I had to leave my bed unfortunately.
.
But as I walked back from Tesco last night, I remember the most enjoying moment I feel when I rest on my bed. At this point, there is nothing to beat the way I feel back in A-level college (a.k.a matriculation college, specifically K
MPP). It felt so good to lie down on my blue covered mattress, lay my head at the corner next to my cupboard that was blocking the sun ray come straight to my face (poor Ali and Fariz, they can’t do the same:). Feeling tired after finishing more than 6-7 hours lecture for that day made me felt very cosy staying on the bed. The fact that it was Asar and I had not pray yet on that time (with assistance of satanic encouragement to just stay on the bed) made the time went very fast. But I should say, something special about it which differentiate my not-so-busy time in USM and very-hectic-and-busy time here is the fact that I always know that everything will be fine.
.
As I was having quite good time in matrics, doing my tutorial around 6 o’clock (yeah I know it’s very ‘nerd’ in its own way. And yeah Mahadi, don’t keep referring it to that ‘there’s nothing worth the view outside of my room, anymore’ excuse) and enjoying tv at night, all of those good things around me made the lying-down-on-the-bed routine after the lecture made me enjoying
those simple moment in my life.
.
Being able to relax is one of the greatest endowment in our life (surely as for Muslim, having the gift of Iman is the greatest one, but still, some things that we took for granted such as eating and even defecating (going to the toilet if you know what I mean) is a huge bless. But now I’m talking about ability to relax).
.
For the past few months, I could hardly lying down on by back, and feel the way I felt back in matriculation college. Still after finishing exam, it doesn’t feel the same way. It brings me to one simple conclusion,……………. I was try to find the right words but I can’t. I guess I will find the answer next time I could really enjoy my moment lying down on my bed and have a peaceful mind.
