Waking up to a few songs

Today was like a Godsend, totally perfect. My morning class was cancelled and also the evening class. I was just left with the afternoon class from 2-3.30 pm. Waking up didn’t feel this good in a long time, let me tell you that. After waking up, I played a few tunes, just for fun. Needless to say, it did brighten up my mood. It started with ‘How can I tell you’ (Cat Stevens), ‘Runaway’ (The Corrs), ‘Twist & Shout’ (Beatles) and coming to an end with ‘The Colour of Love’ (Boyz II Men).

There was much pleasure in singing along to a song that I never experienced before. It must be because I had just woken up and lay awake with no idea of what to do. I sang all the song as best as I could, maybe even croaked some of the words. I blame it on the morning blues, or in my case near afternoon blues. Waking up just before noon on a jobless day is almost an achievement. Well, that true in the case of an undergraduate student trying to hone out the rest of his future.

Thinking about the future is enough to give you the shivers. Honestly, it creeping under my skin and spreading like a virus. Signals being emitted by the virus are very frequent and sometimes in the most bizarre and scary ways. An anecdote is still to be found and this thing is very contagious. Every time someone asks me “how long to do you have to finish?” I get all hot and bothered. It’s not like one can see me sweating profusely or my eyes twitching at an abnormal pace. The thought keeps lingering on and on and on.

Let me tell you that I have finished my first law case review. A shout out goes to the people who helped me in this endeavour. So, I would like holler out a big ‘thank you’ to najia, aisya and not forgetting lubbie. I would also like to state the immense potential of Lubna in being a teacher/lecturer in the future. The tone of voice, demeanor and many other cues fit the profile. After having said this, I know there is going to be a reply from the potential future lecturer.
