Somewhere else.

"I have got somewhere to be."

I told them confidently when I had no clue of where will I be after 10 mins. I needed my own time, a little time away after all the time spent with them, for the past 4 hours. Wasn't that enough ? The long 4 hours spent in the room , where we were supposedly free to do anything we want, with no one to check upon us yet, the resources were the only things that could fit in our bags. 

Getting out of the place was what I was waiting for since the  time boredom dawned and practically, we have nothing to do.

I came up the common girls room. No one would come here. There wasn't any fixed rule for who and when can somebody  enter or leave, but from all the time I have been visiting, this place was practically never used and that was what I exactly wanted.

A place where I can find some time off the chaos, where I can do my tasks with all the focus or all the distraction that I need at that time..

Otherwise, what other options did I have ? 

There is a room made which gives us a dedicated chair and table to sit and work peacefully , with all facilities one can use whole working, but it isn't very private, at least for me as I'll continuously be distracted by everyone who come and leaves the room. That's my bad.

So I come here, with the basic facilities but to me it feels super comfortable and peaceful to be here. Ofcourse I dont stay here whole day. That would feel awfully isolated. It's just that, I love to spend some time with peace here.

Sometimes I think if we associate some of your responsibilities depending on the place we are at.  If that's true, this place is somewhere I don't feel responsible for being-on-the-go always.

But ultimately, this is a common place and under the college authority. 

Waiting and working for the day where I can have something like this, to be called mine. I'll make sure to decorate in a way which vibes with me; with the walls decorated and kitchen stocked and maybe with friends invited someday or the other !

Escaping, but from whom?

It's a quite place which I always claimed will make me most productive.  And now that I am here, I occasionally get lost in my thoughts, which is basically about all the issues I am surrounded with. While at home,  I was constantly in search of emptiness, a room where no one ones what am I doing, judge whether what I am doing would actully help me make my future better, to validate the feelings I express. I used to just sleep or try to study in a room locked from inside where most of the time was spent crying till I am too exhausted to do nothing more than needed, sorting what went wrong and hiding from everyone around. I have been there before and after attempts of moving on, the things are back again , right in front of me. Everytime it happens, it leave a hollowness inside which doesn't really fills up. It gets deeper, progressively. I have been shrinking out socially and hasn't been a serious bother since the ones I have to keep with me, are with me.  The previous tim...

That's the way I work!

 I exhaled the breath that was captured inside me, realizing that the person didn't intend to convey the news to me yet. I'll get my news.  I don't know how long that's going to take but my mind is beginning to take its troll. I just couldn't wait anymore!  Was the news even meant for me? I didn't know. All I knew was , being patient is the only option to patient.  I have been acting impulsively. Once I decide I want to finish off something, I'll do it anyway, without giving it a second thought. Once convinced, concider it's done. The whole efforts, are therefor, put into the Convincing process. It's freaking hard to convince me to do something. My friends often say, why do you think so much? Why are you so afraid of taking actions ? I don't think I am afraid or I take too much time deciding. It's just, i don't have an explanation for this. If my Gut feeling says I should do it, I'll do it or otherwise.  Following my own philosophies,...
  I can stare at the sky and think about literally everything that’s there, be it connecting the dots of my past happenings that got me to the stage I am. While thinking about it, I feel as if I am narrating my favorite experiences to my long-gone friend. I jump from one experience to another, losing the chain of the story and eventually getting back from where I started. I think about the most practical things I can see in my future and what I’ll need to do for it. At times, I land up making alternate possibilities of how things might have turned out if I had made choices a little different from what I actually did. Sometimes, when I don’t want to think about anything in particular, I get my earphones and enjoy the music and the peace in me with the quiet of the night. Without anything to listen, my head will always be filled with something or the other. So yeah, that works sometimes. I see aeroplanes occasionally. They lit me up. Memories. Dreams. Possibilities. In these da...
