Shanghai Trip Day 4 - Lazy...

Well... technically speaking... i shouldn't actually be writing anything today coz i did nothing. had slept last night after seeing some horror flick on star movies... the after effects of the movie kept me awake till late and when i finally dragged myself out of bed at 7 am, i knew something was wrong. the next moment in the bathroom i could feel myself completely worn out... legs shaking ..hands quivering and eyes still heavy with fatigue... i decided to listen to the body and it shouted...SLEEP bugger !!... well the voice was quite loud and i called up my tutor that i am not feeling well and won't be coming to office. she was kind enough to advice me to take rest... and i dropped myself on the bed like a hot potato dropping from hands... i slept...and i slept... when i woke up first...it was 11 am... i rose from the bed... and ensured that the curtains fully covered the window... i wanted complete darkness... post that went to another innings of sleep... this time woke up at 2 pm. kept lying in the bed and switching between the 4 english channels available in the TV. finally got hold of some comic flick on HBO, made maggi and had it with some Sprite and haldiram bhujia (brought from home)... thought to go out snd check out shanghai..but the sleep had made me more sleepy..came back to the bed and kept watching movies either on the TV or on the laptop for the whole day...

well... lazy days are good..they help you get back your lost energy..these are like those downhill rides where you can shut off your engines and let the body of the car cool down for the next uphill climb... spent the whole day thinking about how china is so different yet so similar to india..how rice is as important here as in india... how traditions are more important to people than progress... also kept thinking about the communist rule here but shall write those thoughts in the other blog where i pen down my socio-political thoughts...

i must go to office tomorrow or i shall die of laziness... and i must also buy myself a local simcard while coming back. the weekend plan also needs to be finally frozen and that shall require one more reading through the tarvel guide and getting the names of important places written down in chinese for cab assistance. i might also try to use the metro, in fact... till then... let's get back to sleep....
