21 Days of Blogging (Journey of an Emerging Writer) > Day 18 > Not gonna skip>

 Hello readers ,

Good to be here for the day 18 of the journey.  The day started with the same coffee and music routine , after that I completed the morning chores and did some studying . Then I went to the market and go see my old school mates. We had planned to go to a nearby village to visit another friend. Now it's still a bit awkward to ask your parents for a night out cause no matter how old you get, you're still a kid to your parents . So we told our parents that we are going to a wedding of our friend's relative(pretty decent excuse) and went on to meet him.  So my friend has a job in Ukhimath (a village which is approx . 25km away from Agastyamuni).Of course we didn't told our parents that we are travelling in scooter to cover that distance in the dark in mountains, rather we told them the place is 5km away down the hill. It should not be considered as a lie guys, we said so just cause they don't worry about us. Well atleast tha's how we consoled ourselves but it was clearly a lie.  After reaching there, we went to the edge of a mountain and sat there. That was quite a view, we could see a few villages in the dark and talked for a while. It feels good catching up with the old mates. Memories strike you as a moving train and all you want to do is just enjoy the ride. So we did that for a while, and then had dinner. Then we stayed up for a while and in the morning we have to head for some work. But that was the moment, the location was at a very high altitude, so we sat there with my back against the best possible view one could have. I did looked over my shoulders to have a picture of it but yeah couldn't look straight at it because of the phobia of heights you can say. Man! while I was telling my friends about how my past years went, I came to realize that I did fucked up quite a lot. But the thing is I don't have any issues and regrets with them cause that's how you learn and become better (through the fuck ups right), you mess up something and you learn from the mess up and you try never to repeat it. But as I went through my memory lane, I came to know that I'm blessed with good people throughout my life. Well there a few from whom I learnt what not to do but other than them everyone was good to me and was there for me whenever needed. Someone said to me that I was blessed with good people around me because I'm a very good person and that sounds reasonable too because you always get what you give. Just kidding guys, no one told me so. In fact I'm the someone who tells these kinds of things to myself. Wow! I sound so self obsessed right now, which I'm clearly not or maybe. After the dinner we had to sleep right but there was no space to sleep. All we had was a sofa and a small bed for one person only. So we joined the bed and the sofa and somehow managed to hurt our backs and to survive one sleepless night. But it was fun cause you don't look for comfort with your buddies, you just have to enjoy the moment as it is. And that's how we can manage to enjoy those little moments in our life. Whenever you are around your loved ones just squeeze yourself a bit and stay with them as long as the moment lasts. So I had decided that I was not gonna skip the blogging routine and somehow managed to do so. No big deal I guess. See you in the next one. Till then, have a great time everyone:)
