Yesterday I went to visit Nanna Mary, she's doing better in herself but coughing a lot. Just waiting for an appointment to take her for another chest xray to see if the pneumonia has resolved by then. Picked up my friend and came home for our sleepover, had a looooovely time. We drank lambrini and watched the Al Yankovic movie and St Trinian's for a throwback.
After she left this morning I started painting the kitchen bc I had the sunday scaries and needed to diatract myself
Was absolutely exhausted when I finished (still have the other 2 walls to do but didn't have the energy today to go around cupboards etc), curled up with Mags for a nap
Got up for a bath, finished acotar, now making my lunch for the office tomorrow 🙄
After weekdays that are full of studying,more studying and even more studying.
An university student needs a much deserved break. Hence the weekend is my chill pill.
I escape to my hometown to unwind.
Its called kammavanpet,near Vellore in Tamil Nadu and it looks this;
Oh i took the pictures so credits to me he he.
i escape to this lovely paradise to relax after spending the entirety of the week in the hustle and bustle of the city. after existing among constant noise of all sorts. the quiet is serene.
You feel it the moment the bus enters the sparsely populated settlement.
Its an emotion that's akin to how you feel when you smell the scent of the earth after the rain. You just feel so peaceful.
Now i shall give ya'll tips on how to spend your weekend unwinding in this heaven:
As times have changed internet is available everywhere and here too. But I like to spend my precious mini two vacays by forgetting the existence of internet.
I download all the series i want to binge on, take all the new books i want to read along with of course food, and that's it.
You go prepared to relax and that is what you do.
You wake up along with the sun. watch it rise amidst the mountains.
Breathe in the fresh air.
go for a morning walk.
come back sit on the veranda with a cup of hot tea.
watch the birds and little animals wake up.
read a book or go exploring after all discovering is fun.
go hiking.
walk along the paddy fields.
In the evenings watch the sunset.
BBQing is something i haven't tried yet but the ambience here is perfect for it.
you can source your meats and veggies from the nearby fields and shops.
In the night you can count the numerous stars that stud the inky sky visible only here.
feel the grass crunch under your feet and breathe in the fresh air.
JUST BREATHE.
