Paradise!

This may be a long time after I'm putting something up on this post. Unlike many bloggers, I usually wait for something to happen that is worth writing about. Though it completely contradicts the definition of blogging, it works for me just fine!

I love jogging, I truly do. And considering that fact that its my final year in this beautiful campus, I had decided long time back to spend more time around nature than elsewhere. So I've been jogging regularly for the past sometime I've been here, and as always, I get high after a 4 to 6 km run. The first time is a little painful, literally, because you suddenly get aware of the puny muscles you weren't cognizant of. Yes, awareness of form that restrains you from turning on you bed or getting up from the "poop" position (squatting, as many call it) is something I'd rather not have. Nevertheless, after a while, the pain alleviates, the muscles and tendons get back to their normal business, and life is good.

Today, as the title suggests, was a paradise for me. Or for most joggers so to say.
Cloudy sky, mild drizzle, fragrance of the wet soil, cool breeze giving those occasional goosebumps.....

A perfect milieu for joggers and nature lovers. And what added to the whole setting was the fact that one could spot a dozen of spotted deer and blackbucks, apart from the monkeys that looked kinda nice sitting with their babies and protecting them from the rain. I wonder why I detest them when they do the same outside my hostel room.

Its 7:40 AM right now, and I've been up for over an hour and a half.

I stink.

I need a bath.
