STREAM THOUGHTS (2)

My eye lids fluttered lazily as I rolled to the right side of my bed, trying to avoid the rays of light streaming in from the curtains… I did not have any blinds behind them and they are so transparent that the first light of day floods my room before the cocks’ even crow… I thought sleepily it must be about 5am now… and I drifted again for a little while or so I thought. Suddenly I came to consciousness and forced my eyes open, this time wide awake. Picked up my phone and checked the time as I had no wall clock adorning my empty walls.

WHAT! It was 8:15am, work starts 8:00am, I panicked and flew off my bed, dressed my bed so hastily that half the bed cover was dangling on one side of the bed. I didn’t even have time to fluff my pillows…. Yeah as if that counts for anything. Well it does to me, I have a thing for well, perfectly laid beds... But I couldn’t dwell on that right now... I also had a bigger thing for turning up early. I am a due process person you see…. Before I drift….. I flew into the bathroom… the water was freezing cold but I had to pretend it was a nice warm bath, in 5mins I was getting dressed and throwing everything I needed into my laptop bag… finally I was ready but it was past 9:00am….. I felt deflated… because as fast as I tried I was still as late as can be.

STREAM THOUGHTS

I am sitting in my office which I share with 3 other people, it’s a little past 12pm, I have my ear piece on, listening to a few boring songs left on my phone, with several thoughts running thru my mind… thoughts bordering majorly on ‘my next step’ in life, with work, my career, my life in general. I have lots of ideas but I am not even sure where I’m going with some of them half the time… hmmm (deep breath). 

I have not really done any thing productive today aside taking a couple off files upstairs … if that counts for anything that is..(Thinking)….. Now did I forget to mention, I am a youth corper, serving in a government office? Yeah that I am... and also a person with dreams, ambitions and future aspirations too… by the way that future is NOW though it doesn’t look like it yet. I know you are wondering why I am going on and on with my thoughts and confusing analogy of this day so far… I am too... but believe me I am going somewhere with this.
