Do you sometimes feel that life is a series of good and bad days and nothing else? Like driving on a hilly road where turns are unprecedented and all you can do is drive. Enjoy the views on a clear road but hold the wheel tighter when the road gets bumpy. Today was an enjoying-the-view sort of a day for me.
Today's mood can be described as halcyon, coz I felt calm. Not saying, I was without any work but you know some days you just feel inner peace even with an overflowing to-do list. When you just know that all will be good and that you'll be fine and will make out of your turmoil. I seriously have no definite reason why I was feeling this way but I rather not think of that and just enjoy the day.
I woke up around my usual but late time coz it was supposed to be my last day of official vacation and from tomorrow onwards, my classes were going to start. But, we got an update that our vacation has been extended by a week and my classes will start from 6th August now. Yayyy! This might also be one of the reasons for my happy mood.
Luckily, this semester, my classes are starting from 9 am and not 8 (except 2 days) which spares me a little time to open my eyes. As today was supposed to be the last day of my vacation, I had some errands to run before I get swallowed in the pile of assignments and quizzes.
Also, last night (after 12 am which practically is today) I had the sudden urge of rearranging my bookshelves. So, after completing my work I brought all my books out and wrote little notes on them, and signed them as if I was the author. I replaced all the black classics from my shelves and put them in the cupboard and replaced them with pretty books. It's weird how organizing things (especially stationery and books) make me feel in order of everything.

Marshmallow too was in a naughty mood. He escaped onto the terrace when the door was left a bit open and hid under his cage. As I was asleep, I had no idea about this mischief of his. Now, as per my usual routine, I woke up and started looking for him as I cuddle with him before getting freshened up. I sort of panicked when I couldn't find him anywhere inside the house. I went to the terrace in case he sneaked out. And luckily, found him sleeping under his cage. Sometimes, this boy gives me so much trouble! He also ate a small part of mum's slippers which were kept on higher racks on the shoe shelves (particularly, to protect them from this little devil). So, he too had an adventurous day.
In the afternoon, this doggo in my society stood at my house's gate wagging his tail. I have petted him before but I am always too scared of letting him get close to me - any tips on this can be really helpful! I really want to not be scared of street dogs and I'm trying day-by-day to eradicate that fear. But, as we say Baby steps! I used to give him roti many times but somehow he never ate it. My mom said to add a little milk to it and voila, it worked. He gulped it down in seconds and started wagging his tail even more. It made me feel so happy. There are other 2 dogs as well in my society but they are really healthy (you can say FAT) - one is a female which stays pregnant most of the year and the other one is a male which I think is sort of an alpha dog of our society. The dog which I fed today is a skinny one and the other two bully him a lot. Sad.

Now as you all know, I love driving, and even though I drive slow and get really anxious in traffic the highs of driving are the clear roads. In Ahmedabad, it is rainy season right now, which makes the drive even better but also a bit of trouble as I can't use my side mirrors. In the evening, I went out and got all the work done which were in urgent need - that primarily included food :) I had a pretty good time as it was not at all sunny and on the radio, it was Dhvanit and his Tree Idiot (if you don't know about this, please Google it!) playing.
Overall, I feel pretty good about today. How was your day? Let me know in the comments!
