Hey Guys, welcome back to my blog! In today's post, I'll share with you a journey which I went on recently. I know, it's pandemic and I 'might' have been pretty daring to go out of town. But I went for a single day, with mask on at most times. So keeping COVID aside for a moment, I want to share with you my experience of the trip. It's almost like diary writing, except it's on my blog xD Let's begin!
Part 1: Beginning the Day
The story begins on the day of journey. I was to attend a ceremony in a nearby city, at a distance of about seventy kilometres from my place. It was not any holiday, so I had to compromise my online classes for the sake of my journey! I wore a peach top, (which I was wearing for the first time) and a pair of blue comfy jeans.
I left with my mum at 10 in the morning and took my favourite book and earphones with me. I also kept my favourite moisturiser "in case" my skin dries up from the AC air. (got the pun?!)
Part 2: The Way to Destination
I was travelling by car, so I was free from noisy horns, pollution and unwanted jerks like that in the bus/train. I was tranquil...
As my journey began, I spent the first hour observing the roads, something which I hadn't done from the past six months! Then I realised that I could complement my journey with some music🎧 So I put on the music playlist on my phone, opened the book which I had brought (The Secret, more precisely) and felt like heaven✨✨
Part 3: The Place of Function
I was so immersed in reading that I didn't realise when I reached the destination! It was some ceremony, and my mom was specially invited for it. I went there uninvited.
There, I had fun making new friends, which were FAR older than me (those lovely girls were graduates, and I-a middle school girl!). I was very shy for some time, but then felt the need socialise. Reason? I saw that they were very cheerful all the time and I wanted to cheer up too. Also, both of them wore dresses of the same peach colour🍑 as I did!
The next few hours slipped quickly as I played a six-player-ludo-match with them and other new friends. No one won, and when one won, the game ended (the rule was to enjoy the game WITHOUT finishing it HAHA).
Part 4: Eating and Goodbye
Later, mum called me to have some food. There were yummy foods all over the place, be it fried rice, paneer, pizzas, manchurian, laddus and rosogollas. I immediately digged in😋🍲
And when we were done eating, it was time to go back home. My mom exchanged greetings with the organisers, and I said goodbye to my newly-made friends; then we left for home.
I was so tired in the car during my journey back home that I slept midway! I woke up only kilometres apart from my home😴
Conclusion
Although I was a bit tired after my trip, I still made great memories that day. I also learnt how to be outgoing and more confident.
I was literally too nervous before I spoke a word to my new friends! But then I got mixed with them well. I also clicked some pictures📷 with them, so that I may not forget their faces (and labelled their names too LOL).
This was all about my journey. I enjoyed the day, and felt refreshed after having seen tons of faces! I felt it was a good decision that I agreed to go, as I got some change from the same daily routine...Well, have you been on a trip or picnic recently? How did it go? And what's your usual routine when you're on the way to the destination? Tell me in the comments!
