Holidays. Sounds good, tastes bad.
So, let's see, 10 days since my previous post. Hmm... seems like I've made a little improvement there, seeing that my previous post is like almost a month and a half away from it's ,well, previous post.
Without me saying, I guess everyone knows it's Good Friday today! If you don't, I'm wondering if you even notice you're at home since it's a holiday. Then again, that doesn't apply to everyone. Speaking of holidays, let me share with you how crazy life could be on my side during these times. Let's just use Good Friday as an example.
For Christians, you'll have your mornings occupied by the church. There goes 1/3 of your day, which I'd say is easy. But, for others, imagine turning up at McDonalds for breakfast only to find yourself facing a crowd of hungry and grumpy people who had been queueing in line for an hour. You get frustrated, you turn to the diners. There's this tiny glint of hope for you...until you set foot in the restaurant and find that glint of hope extinguished, as you come face to face with yet another ferocious but famished crowd of zombie-like-people. And once you find a vacant diner, look, it's noon! There goes 1/3 of their day, looking for a vacant diner for what seems to be breakfast turned lunch.
Considering that this group of people had that bad a start, what makes you think they'd have a better half of the day after that? With lunch taken care of along with breakfast, dinner it is then. Hail the arrival of pandemonium! With both groups of people intertwined together, hunting for dinner, you'd best take a flight out to some other part of the world where meals don't mean a thing. Oh right, there's no such place. In the end, we have our day turned into a jungle while we become the animals that inhabit it in our quest for survival, or should I say, food.
All in all, holidays definitely sounds good but when it comes to living through it, it's the worst day of your life. Of course, I personally have no objections against it since I pretty much enjoy them. The fast-paced action that is bound to ensue is just what I need to spice things up.
Well, I'll break it here then. Think I've gone on for long enough already. Until our next meeting, tata!
P.S. This sort of thing happens whenever there's a holiday and therefore, not necessarily only on Good Friday. This is just to let you know how crazy life could be here. Last of all, I was barely using Good Friday, a holiday, as an example and so, harbors NO ill intentions against Good Friday.
