Wallowing in Nonchalance

The Half Yearly exams have finally ended! What a relief! I still have my books piled up on my study table that are recently necessitating proper care. So what? It’s the Puja Holidays man! Just relax yourself on the couch and have a “bindaas” enjoyment of the boob tube. Anything else? I have been loath to read books containing delightful stories until today; this might be the first time I have borrowed a book from my friend; and it is “The Alchemist”. I was so interested in reading the book that I already finished an unprecedented thirty-two pages in half-an-hour and I am proud of myself having read (not completely) an International Bestseller; although I have the unabridged Sherlock Holmes tome, I have only read the “Hound Of The Baskervilles” and have greatly enjoyed it. In class V or something, of Sherlock Holmes (abridged), I had read “The Red-Headed League”, “The Speckled-Band” (the best rated story of Sherlock Holmes which I too have rated the best) and “The Copper Beeches”. I have no personal gizmos to spend time with but I have my faithful companion, my computer, who never leaves me. Surfing the internet might be a good pastime. I have not yet started the Puja shopping but plan to start in a few days.
To aestivate the summertime during Autumn annoys all. Going out under this scorching heat is truly tiring. I would rather stay nocturnal, brother; I would prefer to not come out of my house during the matutinal hours.
